Cameron Talbott is getting his first pro skate this week. What's crazy is that Cam is 37 years old, and while he was a sponsored am for a long time, he didn't achieve pro status until he was 25. While that's impressive, what's even more impressive are the hammers and creativity that define his skating. Not too bad for a kid who came up with nothing in Missoula, Montana. On the podcast, we talk about growing up with less, his badass mom, finding community in skating, SF, Valo, and so much more. It's a good one, with a double dose of Inappropriate Questions featuring Erick Garcia and Tom Hyser.

Janelle Yip's path to becoming a pro skier was more unexpected than unconventional. She grew up as a skier on the slopestyle path, and while she loved it, being a comp skier wasn't in the cards for Janelle. So, after a gap year led her to Revelstoke, Janelle never gave up on her pro skier dreams, giving herself a 5-year window to make it happen. In year one, Janelle met the crew that would become “The Blondes," altering the trajectory of her life. In what started as a play for free beer, “The Blondes” took the ski world by storm and, in turn, launched three ski careers. On the podcast, Janelle and I talk about the influence of Windell's, starting an all-girls ski crew, Intersection, MSP, and so much more. One of Janelle's partners in crime, Emily Childs, asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Klaus Obermeyer has had a bigger impact on skiing than any man alive, and when he wasn't innovating the sport, he was in Aspen or traveling the world to ski. He was often found surrounded by a harem of beautiful women. In part 2 of his podcast, we talk about inventing sunscreen, mirrored sunglasses, ski brakes, the down jacket, and so much more.  It's crazy the innovations and the fun that Klaus has brought to skiing over his 105 years Klaus Obermeyer Show Notes Part 2: 4:00:  Aspen, 1947 ski school, Freedle Pfieffer, inventing a new ski boot, inventing sun block, raising money, inventing the down jacket,   18:30:  Liquid Force, Feel the Pull and get 15% off your LF Purchase by using the code Powell15 at checkout Stanley:  The brand that invented the category!

Klaus Obermeyer has had a bigger impact on skiing than any man alive, and when he wasn't innovating the sport, he was in Aspen or traveling the world to ski. He was often found surrounded by a harem of beautiful women.  Klaus's incredible story started 105 years ago in Hitler's Germany where he was shot by Nazis trying to escape on his skis. From there, he came to America with nothing and eventually became one of the biggest business moguls in skiing. In part 1 of the pod-cast, we talk about making his skis, life in Nazi Germany, moving to the US with $10, Sun Valley, Warren Miller, and much more. This is mandatory listening with a wise man who's lived more than almost anyone.  Klaus Obermeyer Show Notes: 4:00:  Being surrounded by beautiful women, skiing, and yodeling 16:00:  Liquid Force: Feel the Pull with the 2025 line and get 15% off with the code Powell15 Stanley:  The brand that invented the category!

Garrett McNamara is a world record-breaking big wave surfer and one of the pioneers of sport. What's crazy about Garrett's story is that while he achieved pro surfer status early on, his career didn't take off until his mid to late 30's when he became infatuated with riding giant waves. And then it exploded to the point where now, at 55, he's launching his 3rd Season of  his “100 Foot Wave” series with HBO. On the podcast, we talk about growing up in cults, Hawaii, being there for the beginning of tow-in surfing, being big in Japan, Northshore (the movie) his HBO series, and much more. It's another interesting one with a legend.

Khai Krepela is known for his prowess on rails, he made a career out of it, but really, he had a pro ski career because he realized what he was good at and he went all in on that aspect of the sport. But Khai didn't stop at pro athlete, while he still had a little gas left in the tank, Khai found himself behind a desk at K2 for the beginning of his post pro ski career. On the podcast, we talk about inline skating, Park City, Detroit, filming, the X Games and more.  Olympic Head Judge Jason Arens asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Charlie Hoch is a former pro snowboarder turned cannabis entrepreneur, which makes him the perfect guest for 420 week. When I say pro snowboarder, while Charlie competed amongst the likes of Travis Rice and was on the podium at some big events, his snowboard career won't be what defines his existence; his success in the cannabis world will be. From developing the original ice bong to building his 100+ SKU empire today, Charlie could use snowboarding instead of having it the other way around, and on the podcast, we talk snowboarding, weed, and more.  Charlie Hoch Show Notes: 4:00:  His 420 plans, Wolf Creek, how smoking a bowl in the backcountry changed his life, going from handrails on his skateboard to big mountain lines 14:00:  Fort Lewis, focusing on his sticker business and becoming a pro snowboarder, 20:00:   Stanley:  The brand that invented the category!

Stuart Rempel has one of those resumes. If you look at it, you know that he has lived an incredible life, and it all started with a ski bum mentality. Stuart went from pounding nails and skiing winters to running Salomon NA, Olin, K2 Skis, and Whistler. Most people at that level have a few degrees and plenty of suits. That's not Stuart, though. Throughout his career, he made it a priority to be on snow as much as possible, and the beta he gathered from the hill was used to make skiing better.  It's another great business episode with an important person in the hardgoods and resort world, and Stuart's legendary neighbor, Mike Douglas, asks the Inappropriate Questions.   Stuart Rempel Show Notes: 4:00:  His streak, growing up in Kamloops, skiing, working construction to ski, going to the ski show, getting into the biz at the bottom, the traveling RV sample room, Salomon Rep,  the boot launch, and being a subsidiary 20:00:  Stanley:  The brand that invented the category!

Sven Brunso is the most photographed skier in the history of the sport, but he's a name that most don't know.  With 140 covers and 2500 pages published, you've seen him ski.  In the industry, Sven's work ethic is a thing of legend.  He's known for getting out a day early and setting the skin track and then out-researching everyone for the right beta to get the shot.  He's an animal, and shooting photos is his side hustle.  Sven is a longtime ski marketer with an incredible resume that includes Bula, Purgatory, and Leki. No one works harder than Sven Brunso, and no one is as prolific in front of the lens as him either.  On the podcast, we talk about how 'Blizzard of Aaah's' changed his life, how Glen Plake helped create his career, always having a plan b, suicide, and so much more.  Sven Brunso Show Notes: 4:00:  Svenergizer, finding skiing, learning to ski through magazines, college in Colorado, Blizzard changed his life, and Arizona 15:00:  Meeting Plake at SIA, and overachieving,   22:30:   Stanley:  The brand that invented the category!

Alex Deibold is an Olympic medalist with over 100 World Cup starts under his belt. Alex's success began at the Stratton Mountain School, and then he made the US Team at 18.  While he was on the team, he never totally fit in. The world of snowboarding had a “high school” style popularity system and the fact that he liked the gym and working hard earned him the dreaded jock label is the sea of cool guys. But regardless of the lack of funding, sponsors, or fanfare, Alex was able to make the dream happen. It's a fun episode, and Nate Holland asks the Inappropriate Questions. 4:00:  From everywhere he's lived, travel, getting into snow, Jib Fest, Olympics, the chain of events that gets him to SMS 11:00:  X Games, US Open, talent vs work ethic, not fitting in, the jock label, and Baum    22:00:  Stanley:  The brand that invented the category!

“Sick” Rick Armstrong may be the most interesting man in skiing. Not only is he a legendary member of the Jackson Hole Air Force, known for sending the biggest cliffs in Jackson and beyond, but he was also on the first wave of mountain biking and paragliding. If there isn't a level of risk and exploration to something, well, it's not for Rick.

Hannah Kearney is one of those perfectionist type people who are good at whatever they do because not only are they talented, not only do they eat, sleep and breathe their sport, but they also outwork everyone in the pursuit of crushing their goals on the way to greatness. And Hannah was great, 74 World Cup Podiums, 46 wins, Crystal Globes, and an Olympic Gold and Bronze medals.

Doug Workman is a legendary ski guide out of Jackson Hole who cut his teeth climbing in Connecticut before he started traveling the world to guide and ski. From patrolling at JHMR to expeditions to Pakistan, China, Alaska, and Antarctica, to climbing throughout Europe and North America, to working with media outfits like National Geographic, Warren Miller Entertainment, and Teton Gravity Research, Doug has done it all in the ski industry.  His interesting takes on risk, look back on the AK heli wars, the Tsaina Lodge days make this a fun listen.  Tim Petrick asks the Inappropriate Questions Doug Workman Show Notes: 4:00: Nick McNutt, beacons, his work with Mammut on The Barryvox S2 beacon development, and products that saved him 13:00: Skiing in Connecticut, his brother Jed, climbing in wrestling shoes, moving to Colorado and the quintessential 90's climber/skier hippy    19:30: Stanley:  The brand that invented the category!

Outdoor Research So I have a funny theory… I think most of our modern day melodies arise from the fact that we're simply indoors too much. ## There's no such thing as bad weather only bad clothing My friend Mattias L told me the infamous Swedish saying; “there's no such thing as bad weather only bad clothing”. And this is when we are in Stockholm in the dead of winter, and I still remember us being on a train terminal, him just wearing a light track jacket and trainers, not even wearing a jacket or a hat, or even winter boots. Certainly human desire fairer weather. For example, when we think in consider… Why were the ancient Greek so productive? One of the theories is that the Mediterranean climate is actually very very conducive to leisure and thinking! It does get cold, but not that cold. Not like Detroit cold.As a consequence, I think this encourages more people to be outdoors more often, which might be better for thinking, philosophizing, even military exercises? ## The secret of NapoleonOne of the things that Nietzsche talked a lot about was his admiration for Napoleon, and on describing how Napoleon was able to remain so productive healthy and strong, continual marches through the winter all year long, a life outdoors. ## spend more money on your clothes So once again… Then seems that the optimal strategy is if you want to spend maximum time outdoors, and train your body (askesis, body strengthening in Ancient Greek)-- to become more spendthrift with your clothing seems like a good idea. Typically the best fabrics include down, Merino Wool, alpaca, leather, -- typically animal fabrics seem to work the best. Why? If you're going to be butt naked in the middle of the winter, at night, perhaps having a mink fur is a good idea.

Gary Bigham is the most eccentric filmmaker this side of Greg Stump.  You haven't heard about him because when he turned 18, he moved to Europe and became part of the fabric of European Freestyle culture, then he started making films with Europe and the world's best. When the risk of filmmaking became worth more than the reward, Gary did what he does best, entertain. And, between his Vitamin Ski Chalet and playing music in the bars of Chamonix, Gary will always be the center of attention somewhere and the world is better for it. On the podcast, we talk about the draft, being part of 5 different national freestyle teams, Team Clambin, and so much more.

In this episode Will talks with Dr. Anita Tucker and Dr. Christine Norton about the transformation of the Outdoor Behavioral Healthcare Research Center into the newly established Outdoor Research Collaborative for Health, Wellbeing, and Experiential Engagement (ORC) at the University of New Hampshire. The ORC's mission is to expand research efforts beyond wilderness therapy to encompass a wider array of outdoor-based mental health interventions, including community-based programs, trauma-informed practices, and experiential engagement. Dr. Tucker and Dr. Norton explain how the ORC is creating a more inclusive research environment by incorporating diverse voices, including former clients, and prioritizing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) to better reflect the evolving field of outdoor therapy. The conversation delves into the ORC's collaborative research efforts with programs across the country, from wilderness therapy to outpatient adventure-based counseling, and highlights the growing interest in nature-based mental health interventions post-pandemic. The ORC's strategic planning process involved engaging various stakeholders to ensure the research center's direction aligns with the field's needs. The episode also explores how outdoor therapy can reduce practitioner burnout and discusses the importance of research accessibility for practitioners and clients alike. Listeners will gain insight into the field's future, the role of community-based programming, and how the ORC continues to build trust and foster innovation through research and collaboration. Stories from the Field is sponsored by White Mountain Adventure Institute.

Josh Daiek has been blowing minds for a long time, but you may not know his name. While his skiing may remind you of a cross between Seth Morrison and Hugo Harrison (and that's a bold statement), Josh has yet to have a part in a giant ski movie that would blow up his career.  But, he's every pro skier's favorite pro skier all while remaining a little underground.

"Sick" Rick Armstrong is a living legend. Known for his film segments, pioneering Alaska with Doug Coombs and crew, and being part of the second wave of the Jackson Hole Airforce. But what's really amazing about Rick is how huge he sends things: on the hill, in the bar, in the boardroom, or just about anywhere, Rick seems like one of those guys that appreciates and maximizes every experience he can. In part 1 of his podcast, we talk about his current trip to South Africa, coming up, expanding your mind, going huge, the Jackson Hole Airforce, and a lot more.

Nick Baumgartner's life is the definition of out-working everyone and never giving up. This product of northern Michigan grew up with a traditional ”Yooper” work ethic and an enthusiasm you can't coach. While Nick's original passion was football and he played at the collegiate level, that didn't last and snowboarding took over. While he started with slopestyle, Nick became a force on the boardercross circuit and had to battle through four Olympics before he finally earned his Gold Medal. It's an incredible story, and US Snowboard Teammate Jonathan Cheever asks Inappropriate Questions.

Jay Rawe hails from Florida and has a B.A.S.E. Jumping background which immediately makes him different from a lot of my guests. What else is different is the challenges of his childhood. Growing up in one of the pill capitals of the world, Jay was sucked into the world that was opiate addiction and that wreaked havoc on his life. While not sober, when Jay got off pills, that's when his skydiving life took off.

Stan Rey's skiing speaks for itself, he's a big mountain charger with a race background that created a foundation for Stan to crush any terrain. While Stan was born to a family of successful Swiss ski racing bloodlines, his outlook on the sport changed a few years after the family moved to Whistler. But what really separates Stan from the rest of the pack is his personality.  He's the fun guy who has no problem letting everyone else laugh at his expense. He's the person who makes trips and experiences better. On the podcast, we talk about why Whistler sucks, his Olympic Gold Medal-winning wife, being the Cinderella of Canadian Skiing, heading into the backcountry, the Blank Collective, and more.

Georgia Astle wasn't really into biking as a kid; she was a hockey player. By the time high school came around, Georgia found a passion for mountain biking. In the following years she made a name for herself racing but these days, Georgia has transitioned from the race side of things to the big mountain Rampage style riding that's she's now for.

Greg Lutzka has had a long skateboarding career that has taken him worldwide, but Greg is so much more than just a skateboarder. He's a businessman, an entrepreneur who makes way more money through his investments and businesses than he ever did skateboarding, and he loves to talk about that side of this life.

McKenna Peterson is a pro skier, that's rad, but being the captain of the Atlantis and an Alaskan Commercial Fisherman is what separates her badassery from the rest of the pro ski world. Born into a ski bum family, McKenna had early Olympic dreams, but racing never materialized for her. Neither did big mountain contests, but they helped McKenna find her tribe, and she was able to parlay that into a 15-year career of pro skiing in the winter and Captain in the summer. On the podcast, we talk Sun Valley, racing, partying, opportunities, Crazy Karl, and so much more. Amie Engerbretson asks the ‘Inappropriate Questions'. McKenna Peterson Show Notes: 4:00:  Cell phones, Knee injury, telling sponsors, contracts and money, sexism in the water and on the mountain and her ski bum parents. 21:00:  Insta360 Video Cameras: Buy the X4, at checkout, use the code Powell and get a free ski pole or snowboard split board pole mount Stanley:  The brand that invented the category!

Branden Steineckert was a founding member of The Used and the driving force behind the band until they kicked him out for being sober in 2006. While that could crush a man, Branden dove onto wakeboarding for a couple of months and came out the other side as the drummer for Rancid, which has been his job for the past 15 years. While that's worthy of its own podcast, we spend a lot of time talking about his heavy childhood in Utah and using skateboarding as an escape.

Alexi Godbout was born to ski instructor parents and was on his way to a pro skier future from a young age. He did the standard, started with ski racing, graduated to moguls, and then got his master's in park skiing.

Tommy Moe is an absolute legend. This longtime US Ski Teamer is the only Olympic Downhill gold medalist I've had on the podcast.

Gordi Eaton is a legend in the ski industry, and while many people don't know his name, because he was born in 1939, he's had a huge impact in the development of modern ski technology. Before he was involved in helping to bring sidecut, shape, top shape, rocker, and so much more tech to the table, Gordi was an Olympian on the first Bob Beattie-created US Ski Teams that featured athletes like Bill Marolt and Buddy Werner. Then, after coaching at the highest level, Gordi became K2's Race Director, a sales rep, and more. On the podcast, we discuss coming up with no grooming or releasable bindings, putting the Mahre Brothers on K2, and his history with George Torme and Bode Miller.

Alexandra Armstong, better known as Army, has had one of the longest runways to making her pro skier dreams come true of any athlete I've had on the show. She has done every job in the industry, from working the shop floor to coaching, patrolling, flow riding to pro, and she's dirtbagged it most of her way to the top. While she didn't get paid to ski for cameras until she was 27, Army is making the most of her time in the spotlight filming with outfits like the Blank Collective and Teton Gravity Research. As a special bonus, we get Alex's sock sponsor and new Powell Movement sponsor, Josh Hall, the founder of Dissent Labs, to talk about Whistler in the early 90s, founding a sock brand.

Lindsey Jacobellis was the darling of the 2022 Olympic Games with her double gold performance. But while Lindsey has always been a podium threat (she's a 10x X-Games Gold Medalist) when she crashed and took silver at the 2006 Olympic Games, the world made her a villain and now, almost 20 years later, she finally has that Olympic Gold. This episode is all about Lindsey's incredible redemption story, and we talk about her upbringing, Palmer, the Olympic blunder, winning, and so much more.

Alex Beaulieu-Marchand wasn't born to be an Olympian. He was one of those core super-grom kids who skied the streets with his older friends. While other future Olympians were focused on adding rotations, ABM was focused on mastering rails, which would become his secret weapon. Through a random series of events, ABM found his way on to the Dew Tour and from there, the contest opened for the kid who liked skiing the streets. On the podcast, we talk urban, contests, not having a win-at-all-costs mentality, and a lot more. Alexi Godbout asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Inappropriate Questions is how I close out every podcast and it has become a fan favorite. I get someone my guest knows well to ask their friend 3 questions and they can be anything, the more inappropriate the better. This week I went back into the archive from episodes 294 to episode 356 and pulled the best IQ questions and answers. Think names like Tanner Hall, AJ Kitt, Peter Line, Rachael Burks, JT Holmes, Colby Stevensen and many others.

Rick Thorne is a BMX legend and the grind that he put in to achieve legendary status is why I do these podcasts. Rick wasn't born with a silver spoon in his mouth in a nice ski town. He grew up with a single mom, a sister, and the support of the infamous Kansas City bike crew, The BMX Brigade, led by Dennis McCoy. Through DMC, Rick saw a pathway to success, and, while it took a decade of grinding to make it happen for himself, Rick made it on his bike and headed west to the land of opportunity. The rest of the story is a total rollercoaster. On the podcast, we talk about the University of Olive Garden, the Hoffman influence, TV work, his band, and so much more. It's a do not miss episode, and the Inappropriate Questions come from none other than Mike “Rooftop” Escamilla Rick Thorne Show Notes: 4:00: Poop story, being an artist, Tattoos, his dad leaving young, growing up in Kansan City and getting into BMX 19:00:  Liquid Force: Since 95, Liquid Force has outperformed the competition and turned a sport into a lifestyle.

Guenther Oka was looked at as the best all-around wakeboarder in the world…and then he had a devastating knee injury.  While there was uncertainty, Guenther worked his ass off during physio, put out a Red Bull project and this year, he's back to the competition scene.  With podiums in his first 3 events back, not only has Guenther not lost a step, but he's stepped forward with a brand-new mindset, which could be scary for his competition. On the podcast, we talk about waterski bloodlines, coming up in Ohio, Wake Nation, touring, sponsors, money, and a lot more.

Luke Edgar knows how to tell a story; he has one about everything, and it's awesome. The dude always maximizes the gun meter.  If you listened to Part 1, you know what I'm talking about. Part 2 with Luke talking more about Festical, one of events that fills the pages of his proven brand building-sell through strategy playbook and then we move on to discussing his moves to Atomic, Rossignol, Ogio, Skullcandy and Traeger.

Luke Edgar has had a legendary career in building lifestyle brands and keeping them not only relevant but in demand. What makes Luke's story so wild is that while his history goes back to the early days of snowboarding, the reason he pursued a career in “action sports” is because he learned to surf while he was in the army. And when he got out, his life revolved around snowboarding when the sport was in its infancy in the PNW. On the podcast we talk about the early PNW snowboard scene, modeling, Craig Kelly, trade shows, getting sponsored, K2 and so much more. John O'Connor asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Tommy Czeschin was born into a life of mountains and lakes, so it's no surprise that he loves snowboarding and water sports-but what's shocking is that he was able to go pro in both. Not too bad for the quiet kid with talent who started ski racing and was the forerunner for the Jr Olympics before seeing snowboarding and making the switch. Within 5 years, he was traveling the world with the US Snowboard Team, standing on the top of World Cup podiums, winning X Games medals, and eventually making the 2002 Olympic Team.  After his snowboarding, he was an early adopter of wake surfing and these days, he gets paid to ride behind a boat among other things. It's kind of like Deion Sanders, Bo Jackson, or a Shaun White-type story, only different. Don Wallace asks the “Inappropriate Questions” Tommy Czeschin Show Notes: 4:00:  Wake Surf trips, growing up near Mammoth, ski racing, and snowboarding    12:00:  Early contests, Mammoth snowboard team, making the US Snowboard Team and the traveling family 19:00:  Liquid Force: Since 95, Liquid Force has outperformed the competition and turned a sport into a lifestyle.

Red Gerard has won every slopestyle event out there: The Olympics, X Games, Dew Tour, World Cups, Grand Prix, you get the idea and Red is only 23 years old. While his life will be defined by his Olympic Gold, Red's snowboarding career isn't all about contests. He's just as comfortable taking his trick vocabulary to the backcountry and laying it down for his film segments. The beauty of Red is that while he's young, he's also kind of throwback. A kid who takes pride in competing, filming, and having a good time off the hill…On the podcast we talk about coming up in a big family, snowboarding, getting screwed by judges, sponsorship, contests and so much more.

Ace Kvale has lived the ultimate ski bum life but he's no bum, Ace is a legend. A Midwest kid who hitchhiked his way west at 18 for bigger mountains and a better lifestyle. After a few years of resort hopping, Ace made his way to Europe, connected with Marko Shapiro, and became part of the original Clambin Crew. He started out living in a chalet in Verbier, traveling the world skiing for the camera, and he climbed in the summertime. Eventually, Ace's life transitioned to working behind the lens and is an award-winning photographer who focuses his talents on shooting adventure. This podcast is one of those must-listen history lessons from one of the original stoked ski bums. Stanley Larsen asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Bobby Brown was a dominant force at contests starting in 2010, and by 2017, it looked like he was on his way to his second Olympic Games, until that dream was taken away by injury. Knowing that traditional contests weren't in his future, Bobby pivoted and took his tricks to the backcountry.  Now, his pro ski life is totally different than when we talked in 2017, and this time around, we discuss his latest project, sponsor changes, breaking his back, Dynamic Medium, and a whole lot more. Peter Olenick asks a couple Inappropriate Questions Bobby Brown Show Notes:  4:00: Once in a lifetime experiences, best ski year of his life, White Gold, and quick success 12:00: Going back to normal, firsts, triple cork 14, friend energy, and Olympic run ending injury 20:00:   Liquid Force: Since 95, Liquid Force has outperformed the competition and turned a sport into a lifestyle.

While Lucas Foster is not a one-trick pony, when he landed his Alley Oop Double McTwist in the pipe,  his career and his life totally changed forever.  What's crazy is that Lucas grew up in Telluride, a place without a halfpipe, meaning Lucas came up learning his tricks at contests with barely any practice.  Nowadays, Lucas has all the resources available to up the ante even more as he's a member of the US Snowboard Team, and at just 24, who knows what he'll add to his bag of tricks. On the podcast, we talk about his goal of being the GOAT, mentoring from Jason Cannon, contests, coaching, and more.

Peter Olenick changed halfpipe skiing when he landed the first double in competition. His “Whiskey Flip” defined Peter's life on and off snow; he went big, took chances, and partied his face off during his legendary career. He was on top of the contest world during one of the most run eras. On the podcast, we talk about not being cool growing up, Aspen, finding confidence at High North Ski Camp, success, partying, and a lot more. Colby James West asks the ‘Inappropriate Questions.'

Jeff Thomas is an award-winning filmmaker, a once-sponsored skier, and a guy who was born to be a baseball player. While he can still throw the ball at 85 mph, the day Jeffy's dad showed him the brochure to high North Ski Camp in the late '90s, Jeff's life went from boring baseball to the epicenter of the new school of skiing. At camp, he met his heroes, athletes, and his biggest inspiration, filmmaker Johnny Decesare —all of whom would become the forefathers of the sport and the lifestyle the twin tip movement bred. On the podcast, we chat about his Hall of Fame pedigree, Theory 3 media, Poor Boyz Productions, Teddy Knape, Switchback Entertainment, and more.
