Aaron Draplin is on the show this week, giving us a lesson in gratitude. His advice to listeners: “Be thankful as sh*t that you get to be a creative person.” Showing up and getting the job done builds confidence. Or at the very least, it gives you a better understanding of your own creative process.  Aaron is the founder of DDC, Draplin Design Company. With his signature bold lines and colorful illustration style he's worked for clients ranging from small indie bands to Nike, Patagonia, Target and USPS. When he's not working from his backyard in Portland he's out on the open road with his wife Leigh in their iconic orange van, giving talks and workshops about design, typography and illustration.  On this episode Draplin shares some valuable lessons he's learned after 20 years of freelancing. Don't quit your job until you're financially stable enough to take the leap. He says: “If you have a sucky job, do your sucky job and then get home and have fun. And it'll tip at some point. Like it did for me.”  He talks about his humble beginnings, growing up in Michigan, buying his first computer in Alaska in 1996, moving out West to work at Snowboarder Magazine, and ultimately ending up in Oregon and going freelance in 2004. His Midwestern roots and down-to-earth sensibility shine through in every facet of his career — all the way to his popular side venture, Field Notes memo books.  Aaron generously shares advice on how to make your own stuff, the power of slowing down, giving back and helping other people. We even get to collectively geek out about Dinosaur Jr and he plays us an acoustic version of “Little Fury Things.” And then, towards the end, we go extra deep and talk about where we go when we die. Good times all-around, folks! Another episode of your favorite illustration podcast that's jam-packed with lil nuggets of wisdom from one of the hardest-working individuals in graphic design.  _________ FOLLOW AARON:  Instagram: @draplinWebsite: draplin.comField Notes: fieldnotesbrand.comDDC Book: ddcbook.comDDC Fonts: ddcfonts.com_________ If you liked this episode, please subscribe and leave a review.

He seems to have 10 jobs all at once. He's at Big Sky and he's at Val-d'Isère and he's writing books and he's giving speeches and he's running Tenney Mountain. He's a legendary freeskier who didn't die young and who's stayed glued to the sport. He loves skiing and it is his whole life and that's clear in talking to him for 30 seconds.So he would have been a great and compelling interview even outside of the context of Tenney. But I'm always drawn to people who do particular, peculiar things when they could do anything. There's no reason that Dan Egan has to bother with Tenney, a mid-sized mountain in a mid-sized ski state far from the ski poles of the Alps and the Rockies. It would be a little like Barack Obama running for drain commissioner of Gladwin County, Michigan. He'd probably do a good job, but why would he bother, when he could do just about anything else in the world?I don't know. It's funny. But Egan is drawn to this place. It's his second time running Tenney. The guy is Boston-core, his New England roots clear and proud. It makes sense that he would rep the region. But there are New England ski areas that stand up to the West in scope and scale of terrain, and even, in Northern Vermont, snow volume and quality (if not consistency). But Tenney isn't one of them. It's like the 50th best ski area in the Northeast, not because it couldn't be better, but because it's never been able to figure out how to become the best version of itself.Egan – who, it's important to note, will move into an advisory or consultant role for Tenney next winter – seems to know exactly who he is, and that helps. He understands skiing and he understands skiers and he understands where this quirky little mountain could fit into the wide world of skiing. This is exactly what the ski area needs as it chugs into the most recent version of itself, one that, we hope, can defy its own legacy and land, like Egan always seems to, on its skis.What we talked aboutA vision for Tenney; what happened when Egan went skiing in jeans all over New Hampshire; the second comeback season was stronger than the first; where Tenney can fit in a jam-packed New Hampshire ski scene; why this time is different at Tenney; the crazy gene; running a ski area with an extreme skier's mindset; expansion potential; what's lost with better snowmaking and grooming and wider trails; why New England breeds kick-ass skiers; Tenney's quiet renovation; can Tenney thrive long-term with a double chair as its summit lift?; what's the worst thing about a six-person chair?; where Tenney could build more beginner terrain; expansion opportunities; the future of the triple chair; an endorsement for surface lifts; the potential for night skiing; the difference between running Tenney in 2002 and 2024; the slow death of learn-to-ski; why is skiing discounting to its most avid fans?; the down side of online ticket discounts; warm-weather snowmaking; Tenney's snowmaking evolution; the best snowmaking system in New Hampshire; “any ski area that's charging more than $100 for skiing and then asking you to put your boots in a cubby outside in the freezing cold … to me, that's an insult”; the importance of base lodges; “brown-baggers, please, you're welcome at Tenney”; potential real estate development and the importance of community; New England ski culture – “It means something to be from the East”; “why aren't more ski area operators skiing?”; skiing as confidence-builder; the No Boundaries Pass; the Indy Pass; Tenney season pass pricing; and Ragged's Mission: Affordable pass.Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewIn late 2022, as Tenney's social media feeds filled with hyperactive projects to re-open the ski area, I asked a veteran operator – I won't say which one – what they thought of the ski area's comeback potential.“No chance,” they'd said, pointing to lack of water, strained and dated infrastructure, and a mature and modern competitive marketplace. “They're insane.”And yet, here we are. Tenney lives.The longer I do this, the less the project of operating a ski area makes sense to me. Ski areas, in my head, have always been Mount Bohemia: string a lift up the mountain and let the skiers ride. But that model can only work in like four places on the continent, and sometimes, like this year, it barely works there. The capital and labor requirements of running even a modest operation in schizophrenic New England weather are, by themselves, shocking. Add in a summit lift built six decades ago by a defunct company in an analogue world, an already overcrowded New Hampshire ski market, and a decades-long legacy of failure, and you have an impossible-seeming project.But they're doing it. For two consecutive winters, lift-served snowskiing has happened at Tenney. The model here echoes the strategy that has worked at Titus and Holiday Mountain and Montage: find an owner who runs other successful, non-ski businesses and let those businesses subsidize the ski area until it can function independently. That could take a while. But Steven Kelly, whose Timberline Construction Company is big-timing it all over New England, seems committed.Some parts of the country, like Washington, need more ski areas. Others, like New Hampshire, probably have too many. That can be great for skiers: access road death matches are not really a thing out here, and there's always some uncrowded bump to escape to on peak days. Operators competing for skiers, however, have a tricky story to tell. In Tenney's case, the puzzle is this: how does a fixed-grip 1,400-footer compete in a crowded ski corridor in a crowded ski state with five-dollar Epic Passes raining from the skies and Octopus lifts rising right outside of town and skiers following habits and rituals formed in childhood? Tenney's operators have ideas. And some pretty good ones, as it turns out.Questions I wish I'd askedI know some of you will be disappointed that I didn't get into Egan's career as a pro skier. But this interview could have been nine hours long and we wouldn't have dented the life of what is a very interesting dude. Anyway here's Egan skiing and talking about skiing if you were missing that:What I got wrongWe recorded this before 2024-25 Tenney season passes dropped. Egan teased that they would cost less than 2023-24 passes, and they ended up debuting for $399 adult, down from $449 for this past winter.When describing the benefits of nearby Ragged Mountain's $429 season pass, I mention the ski area's high-speed lifts and extensive glades, but I neglected to mention one very important benefit: the pass comes loaded with five lift tickets to Jay freaking Peak.Why you should ski TenneyBefore high-speed lifts and Colorado-based owners and Extreme Ultimo Megapasses, there was a lot more weird in New England skiing. There was the Cranmore Skimobile:And these oil-dripping bubble doubles and rocket-ship tram at Mount Snow:And whatever the hell is going on here at now-defunct King Ridge, New Hampshire:I don't really know if all this was roadside carnival schtick or regional quirk or just a reflection of the contemporary world, but it's all mostly gone now, a casualty of an industry that's figured itself out.Which is why it's so jarring, but also so novel and so right, to pull into Tenney and to see this:I don't really know the story here, and I didn't ask Egan about it. They call it the Witch's Hat. It's Tenney's ticket office. Perhaps its peculiar shape is a coincidence, the product of some long-gone foreman's idiosyncratic imagination. I don't even know why a ski area with a base lodge the size of Rhode Island bothers to maintain a separate building just for selling lift tickets. But they do. And it's wonderful.The whole experience of skiing Tenney evokes this kind of time-machine dislocation. There's the lattice-towered Hornet double, a plodding 60-year-old machine that moves uphill at the pace of a pack mule:There's the narrow, twisty trails of Ye Old New England:And the handmade trail signs:Of course, modernity intrudes. Tenney now has RFID, trim grooming, a spacious pub with good food. And, as you'll learn in the podcast, plans to step into the 2020s. The blueprint here is not Mad River Glen redux, or even fixed-grip 4EVA Magic Mountain. It's transformation into something that can compete in ski area-dense and rapidly evolving New Hampshire. The vision, as Egan lays it out, is compelling. But there will be a cost to it, including, most likely, the old Hornet. That Tenney will be a Tenney worth skiing, but so is this one, and better to see it before it's gone.Podcast NotesOn 30 Years in a White HazeI mentioned Egan's book, 30 Years In A White Haze, in the intro. I dedicated an entire podcast with his co-author, Eric Wilbur, to this book back in 2021:On Jackson Hole's jeans-skiing daySo this happened in December:On the December washoutEgan references the “December washout” – this is the same storm I went deep on with Sunday River GM Brian Heon recently. Listen here.On “what I did 20 years ago” and warm-weather snowmakingThis was Egan's second run as Tenney general manager. His first tenure, near the turn of the century, overlapped with the ski area's experiments in warm-weather snowmaking. New England Ski History summarizes:In October of 2002, Tenney was purchased by SnowMagic, a company seeking to showcase its snowmaking technology. The company's origins dated back to the late 1980s, when Japanese skier Yoshio Hirokane developed an idea to make snow in warmer temperatures, called Infinite Crystal Snowmaking. Hirokane later joined forces with Albert Bronander to found the New Jersey-based SnowMagic company. A significant investment was planned at Tenney, rumored to be a choice of either replacing the 1964 Stadeli double chairlift with a high speed detachable quad or installing the high-tech snowmaking system.In advance of the 2002-2003 ski season, the investment in a SnowMagic system was announced. The system, rumored to cost $1,000,000, would allow the ski area to stay open year round. There was some speculation that the runaway success of this new system would allow for the purchase of a high speed quad shortly thereafter. Famous skier Dan Egan served as General Manager when the area reopened in December 2002.After dealing with equipment shipping delays reportedly caused by a longshoreman's strike, Tenney was able to open during the summer and fall of 2003 thanks to the system. Numbers were disappointing and costs were high, especially considering it was only covering a small slope. Summer snowmaking operations were cancelled in 2004 and the snowmaking system was sent to Alabama. While summertime snowmaking was expected to return to Tenney in 2005, it was all but forgotten, as the company determined the systems yielded better revenue in warmer climates.The most recent headline-making experiment in warm-weather snowmaking landed last October, when Ski Ward, Massachusetts beat everyone to open for the 2023-24 ski season with an assist from an expensive but powerful piece of technology:It cost $600,000. It's the size of a shipping container. In an August test run, it cranked out a six-foot-tall pile of snow in 83-degree weather.It's the L60 snowmaking machine from Quebec-based Latitude 90. And it just helped Ski Ward, Massachusetts beat every other ski area in North America to open for the 2023-24 ski season.The skiing wasn't much. A few feet of base a few hundred feet long, served by a carpet lift. Ski Ward stapled the novelty to its fall festival, a kitschy New England kiddie-fest with “a petting zoo, pony rides, kids crafts, pumpkin painting, summer tubing, bounce houses … and more.” Lift tickets cost $5.On potential Tenney expansionsWe discuss several expansion opportunities for Tenney, including a proposed-but-abandoned upper-mountain beginner area. This 1988 trailmap shows where the potential new lift and trails could sit:On the evolution of LoonLoon, in recent years, has leapt ahead of its New Hampshire competitors with a series of snowmaking and lift upgrades that are the most sophisticated in the state (Waterville Valley might argue with me on that). I've profiled this evolution extensively, including in a conversation with the ski area's current GM, Brian Norton, in 2022 - listen here.On Waterville Valley's summit T-barOne of the most underrated lifts in New England is Waterville Valley's summit T-bar. The story behind it is instructive, though I'm not sure if anyone's paying attention to the lesson. Here's the background – in 1988, the ski area installed the state's first high-speed quad, a base-to-summit machine then known as High Country Express (the ski area later changed the name to “White Peaks Express”:But detachable lifts were new in the ‘80s, and no one really understood that stringing one to the top of White Peak would prove problematic. Wind holds were a constant problem. So, in 1996, Waterville took the extraordinary step of shortening the lift by approximately 400 vertical feet. Skiers could still travel to the summit on the High Country double chair, a Stadeli machine left over from the 1960s:But that lift was still prone to wind holds. So, in 2018, Waterville GM Tim Smith tried something both simple and brilliant: replacing the double chair with a brand-new T-bar, which cost all of $750,000 and is practically immune from wind holds:The result is a better ski experience enabled by a lost-cost, low-tech lift. The ski area continued to invest heavily in the rest of the mountain, throwing down $12 million on the Tecumseh Express bubble six-pack – which replaced the old White Peaks Express – in 2022.Video by Stuart Winchester.On JP AuclairEgan mentions JP Auclair, a Canadian freeskier who died in an avalanche in 2014. Here's a nice tribute to JP from Chris O'Connell, who cofounded Armada Skis with Auclair:There are a million things that can be said about JP as a skier—how he pioneered and transcended genres, and the indelible mark he has made on the sport. But there is so much more: he was a genuinely good human; he was my favorite person to be around because he was hilarious and because he was kind.In the summer of 1997 I watched a VHS tape of JP Auclair and JF Cusson skiing the park at Mt. Hood. It was a time when snowboarding was peaking and, in many places, skiers weren't even allowed in the park. Skiers certainly weren't doing tricks that rivaled snowboarders—in difficulty or in style. To see JP and JF doing cork 720s blew my mind, and, as a snow sports photographer, I wanted to meet them. At the time, I was a senior photographer at Snowboarder Magazine and I had begun contributing with a start-up ski magazine called Freeze. The following spring the photo editor of Freeze blew out his knee and in his place, I was sent to the Nordic jib land, Riksgransen, Sweden to meet these guys.JP and I hit it off and that's how it began – 16 years of traveling and shooting with him. Often, those travels were the kind which involved appearances, autograph sessions and less than ideal ski situations. He would put on a smile and give it 100 percent at an awkward press conference in China when we knew Interior BC was getting hammered. He would shred the icy slopes of Quebec when duty called, or log long hours in the Armada office to slam out a product video. JP was a champion no matter how adverse or inane. That was part of what made him so good.Ironically, JP and I had a shared sense that what we were doing, while fulfilling in context, at times seemed frivolous. We spent our lives traveling to the far ends of the earth, and we weren't doing it to build bridges or irrigations systems or to help people have clean drinking water. Instead, we were doing it for skiing. Read the rest…On Crotched and Peak ResortsEgan is right, Crotched is often overlooked and under-appreciated in New England skiing. While much of the region fell behind the West, from a technology point of view, in the 2000s, Peak Resorts rebuilt Crotched almost from scratch in 2003, relocating three lifts from Virginia and installing a new snowmaking system. Per New England Ski History:At the turn of the millennium, Midwestern ski operator Peak Resorts started looking into either acquiring an operational mid-sized area or reopening a defunct area in New England. Though Temple Mountain was heavily considered, Peak Resorts opted to invest in defunct Crotched Mountain. According to Peak Resorts' Margrit Wurmli-Kagi, "It's the kind of small area that we specialize in, but it skis like a larger mountain. It has some nice glades and some nice steeps, but also some outlying areas that are perfect for the beginners."In September 2002, Peak Resorts formed S N H Development, Inc. as a New Hampshire corporation to begin rebuilding the former western side of the ski area. In terms of vertical feet, the prospective ski area was three times larger than any of Peak Resorts' current portfolio. After a 50 year lease of the property was procured in May 2003, a massive reconstruction project subsequently took place, including reclearing the trails, constructing a new snowmaking system, building a new base lodge, and installing rebuilt lifts from Ski Cherokee, Virginia. A reported ten million dollars later, Crotched Mountain reopened as essentially a new ski area on December 20, 2003. Though most of the terrain followed the former western footprint, the trails were given a new science fiction naming scheme.While the reopened ski area initially did not climb to the top of the former quad chairlift, additional trails were reclaimed in subsequent years. In February of 2012, it was announced that Crotched would be acquiring Ascutney's detachable quad, reopening the upper mountain area. The lift, dubbed the Crotched Rocket, opened on December 1, 2012.On “Rusty” in the hall of fameEgan refers to “Rusty's” U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame induction speech. He was referring to Rusty Gregory, former CEO of Alterra Mountain Company and three-time Storm Skiing Podcast guest. Here's the speech (with an intro by Egan):The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round. Join us.The Storm publishes year-round, and guarantees 100 articles per year.

Tune into this week's episode to learn more about Joe's jam-packed career and how he leverages his experience to develop meaningful consumer brand relationships.

We are joined by Tom Monterosso a.k.a. T Bird. T Bird spent 13 years at Snowboarder Magazine where he made a name for himself covering some of snowboarding's most iconic stories for the publication. In recent years, T Bird has taken on different types of media-related projects than he had typically done for Snowboarder. He's announced some of the biggest events in snowboarding, and most recently was tasked with writing and directing a documentary called “Rough Around the Edges: 30 years of Ride Snowboards," which will be available on Youtube in the coming months.

Full episodes info and Show Notes - www.wearelookingsideways.com Sound the geek klaxon! Yep, this week's conversation with legit US snowboarding legend Pat ‘the eYe' bridges goes deep, deep down the snowboarding rabbit hole. I go back a long way with Pat - around twenty years, in fact. I used to write for him back when he was editor of Snowboarder Magazine, which was around when we first met. Over the years, we stayed in touch and continued to bump into each other at various events around the world. So you can imagine how chuffed I was to get the chance to work alongside Pat as part of the Natural Selection team: firstly, as part of the Selection Committee for the event; then, later, as part of the commentary team for the Jackson leg of this year's tour. I spent that trip with working with and hanging out with Pat, which was brilliant fun and a true privilege. Cut this man and he bleeds snowboarding. He also has the most encyclopaedic knowledge of snowboarding lore of anybody I've ever met. Which, considering the calibre of geek I've spent my life hanging out with, is really saying something. These days Pat is as close to a definition of a snowboarding lifer as you're going to get, as his work as publisher of Slush testifies. He continues to fight the good fight, and be outrageously entertaining company. Hope you enjoy our conversation. Thanks to Matt Ward for the theme tune, to my editor Fina Charleson, and to Duncan Yeldham for production support.

This is a Bombhole special as we have officially recorded our 100th episode and because it's such a big milestone for us, we decided that who better to have as a guest than our co-host Ethan “E-Stone” Fortier. Long before he was Stoney Budz, Ethan was a pro snowboarder, ripping through Summit County in the mid-90s with legends like J2, Tarquin Robbins, Ali Goulet, MFM and many more. It was then that he co-founded one of the most revolutionary snowboard brands of all-time, TECHNINE. Launching with bindings and eventually putting out boards and outerwear, Budz relocated to Salt Lake City, Utah and started shooting photos for the brand. It was in the photography space that Stoney started his second career in snowboarding as he quickly became one of the best lensmen in the business. He was so successful that Snowboarder Magazine picked him up as a Senior Photographer in the early 2000's, a position he remained in until 2020. At SNOWBOARDER, E-Stone became one of the most published photogs in the game and while balancing the ins and outs of the Technine brand, he was widely-regarded as one of the hardest-working people in the industry. In 2020, Stoney teamed up with Grendiesel to start The Bombhole, and through this channel, his third career in the snowboard industry has officially kicked off, so kick back, relax, and watch Stoney do his thing as he tells his entire story start-to-finish. But he ain't finished yet.Special ThanksThe Patreon Members, We would not do this without you!!- https://www.patreon.com/thebombholeIkon Pass- https://www.ikonpass.comOakley- https://www.oakley.com/en-usMountain Dew- https://www.mountaindew.comVolcom- https://www.volcom.com post a good bail on instagram and #volcombombproof @thebombhole https://www.instagram.com/thebombhole/ @volcomsnow https://www.instagram.com/volcomsnow/ A Volcom rider will pick the best one each week and the winner will get a prize pack!!Ten Barrel Pub BeerInstagramEthan “E-Stone” Fortier's Instagram: @E_stone : https://www.instagram.com/e_stone/ Budz Print Shop- www.e-stonephoto.com https://307o96449135872.3dcartstores.com@thebombhole: https://www.instagram.com/thebombhole/@Grendiesel : https://www.instagram.com/grendiesel/@tbirdly : https://www.instagram.com/tbirdley/Hit Subscribe!

Jeremy Jones is hailed as the world's best big mountain snowboarder. He has pioneered first descents on some of the worlds biggest mountains, exploits that have been captured in over 50 snowboard films. He has been voted “Best Big Mountain Rider of the Year” by Snowboarder Magazine eleven times, and in 2013 was named a National Geographic “Adventurer of the Year.” He is also the founder of Jones Snowboards.As Jones has traveled throughout the world's snow zone, he has watched with alarm at the ways that climate change has impacted the landscape, people and snowpack. In 2007, Jones founded Protect Our Winters (POW) to mobilize outdoor athletes, businesses, scientists and winter sports enthusiasts to take action against climate change. In 2013, President Obama recognized him as a "Champion of Change" for his climate activism.Jones believes that outdoor community has untapped political power. POW focuses its climate activism on “what we call the Outdoor State, where there's 50 million people (for whom) the outdoors is a central part of their life. …If we could come together as the Outdoor State and say we want a clean energy future then we would be the most powerful voter bloc in the world. For example, the NRA is basically made up of 3 million really avid loud activists and they wield a ton of power.”“We have not popped a lot of champagne in the world of climate action," Jones concedes. "We've largely been getting out-executed and out-spent by the extraction industry.”“We really need a unified voice that says, if you are not doing everything in your power to get us on a clean energy future, embracing the technologies, then we are going to find someone to represent us that will. And sadly, there is not a single lawmaker in Washington, DC, who is afraid of the outdoor industry (who feel) if they take a bad vote on climate, they're going to lose their job. And we need to change that.”

Chris Wellhausen was the final photo editor for both SNOWBOARDER Magazine and Transworld Snowboarding before taking a role as photo editor of the Men's Journal. From his start as a dedicated East Coast snowboarder to the pilgrimage to the west, Chris followed the same path as any core riders, befo0re picking g up a camera and finding his calling. The rest, as some salt is history.      Today's episode brought to you by Artilect http://artilect.studio Cardiff Snowcraft http://cardiffsnow.com Tow Pro Lifts http://towpro-lifts.com Owner Operator HTTP://owneroperator.us United Shapes  http://unitedshapes.us 686 Outerwear http://686.com Electrovoice Microphones http://electrovoice.com  Oakley Snowboarding http://oakley.com The Baldface Lodge http://baldface.com     Help support The Snowboard Project: http://patreon.com/thesnowboardproject  

On today's episode of Pro Files: Well Seasoned - Jeff Baker. Jeff got his start in media as a photo assistant for Snowboarder Magazine. When I took over as Editor in Chief,  I promoted him to photo editor of the publication.  When launching Snowboard Magazine, I tapped him to be the first Editor, creating what are known as the best snowboarding magazines in the history of the sport.  After a brief independent stint, Jeff was lured back to work for Snowboarder to take on a high pay, high pressure position, selling ads as publisher of the magazine.  That said, the first half of the interview focuses on the current state of media in the sport of snowboarding. The second half covers his background and ride in the sport.         Today's episode brought to you by Artilect http://artilect.studio Cardiff Snowcraft http://cardiffsnow.com Baldface Lodge http://baldface.com Tow Pro Lifts http://towpro-lifts.com Owner Operator HTTP://owneroperator.us United Shapes  http://unitedshapes.us 686 Outerwear http://686.com Electrovoice Microphones http://electrovoice.com    

The Blade Dive, Episode 31 - We are Joined by the Colorado native  that comes from California roots, Kyle Markman.  Growing up Surfing, Skateboarding and snowboarding on the West Coast, on Seal Beach, California… the Markman family would eventually move to Durango, Colorado. Having read Snowboarder Magazine, Kyle Markman took an interest in Snowboarding via the power of print. Markman would later land jobs in a Snowcat at Purgatory Ski Area, CO… Keystone, CO… Eldora Mountain, CO. Kyle Markman is no stranger to pushing the limits of his own Snowboarding, but he's also constantly focusing on pushing the limits of what he can do in a Snowcat. Markman gravitated to transition builds and Zaugg operations, in an attempt to separate himself from other operators, Markman claims to have been building Zaugg features when Zaugg operations wasn't cool. Pushing the limits doesn't come without risk. Markman has 26 broken bones and has not only learned how to pick himself up off the ground but knows first hand how much of a commitment it is to be a master builder and put the trade skill above all else.  Markman has been a part of Superpark, Women's Superpark and The Launch, all of which were created by Snowboarder Magazine. Kyle was a part of the legendary A51 park at Keystone and is the previous Manager of the Terrain Park at Eldora.Episode 31 is an interesting listen. The conversation with Markman is assumed to be filled with ego, based on the Resume bullet points listed above. But the reality is that it's really not. We talk about real life shit, from mental health to depression and anxiety. We cover what it's like to be a dad and be a Snowcat operator, that physical health is so important, whether progression is linked to a wide marketing net, is the local valued, how the playlist evolves during the build and as always…the prediction of the future.

Jeremy Jones - Legendary Big Mountain Snowboarder, Climate Change Activist, CEO/Founder of Jones Snowboards | Brought to you by Ikon Pass Episode #18 of The SnowBrains Podcast “I've got a lot going on, I'm running a business, I cant spend my time trying to win over haters. And so I do not look at comments on Instagram. Apologies to any thoughtful discussion that I miss out on. And that is due to the excessive, aggressive, trolling. Some of it professional trolls. You know the downside of that is that meaningful person and I do feel bad about that… My intentions are pure, they are backed by science. I'm fighting for clean air, clean water, and a healthy planet for future generations. How that makes me the worst person in the world in some people's eyes? I don't know. It is what it is and I refuse to let them alter my views or get to me... I feel deep down in my soul that we are on the wrong path, and this is what I really care about. I'm going to put that on Social Media. To not do that because I'm worried about a bad comment? I couldn't look myself in the mirror and I sure as shit couldn't look at my kids in the eye if I did that.” - Jeremy Jones on The SnowBrains Podcast Jeremy Jones is widely regarded as one of the best big mountain snowboarders on Earth.

Aloha! ... The Blade Dive Podcast, Episode 5, we are joined by someone who has and continues to leave a personal mark on the industry, Peter Colombo. The Massachusetts native, Peter Colombo spent his time exploring Snowboarding at the local Golf Course fairways, sliding sideways whenever there was enough snow to do so.  Eventually Colombo found himself shredding locations like Loon Mtn. & Waterville Valley Resort and Stratton Mountain Resort. Colombo found Snowboarding during the golden era of Terrain Parks and witnessed their creation as well as their expansion,  placing his signature style on everything he put his blade to. Boots on the ground, Colombo witnessed events such as the US open at Stratton Mountain Resort and experienced Mt. Hood, OR's summer camps, as a high school graduation gift from his parents.Initially hesitant, Peter Colombo ended up making the move to Mammoth Mountain, at 19 years old. Joining his hometown buddies, after just one week in town, Colombo landed a job Grooming trails with the Fleet crew. Working on perfecting his new found passion, Colombo was offered an opportunity to bulk push snow for Superpark. At the end of the season, Colombo headed back east, with the thought of attending college... which later fell through. In 2002 Colombo inquired about a job Grooming again with the fleet, but fortunately for him their crew was full and it was this turning point for Colombo that his employment with Mammoth Unbound, under the management of Terrain Park Director, Oren Tanzer, began. Colombo's operator influences during his early years were Mike Gerstner and Issac Smith. From 2002-2009 Peter Colombo was with Mammoth Mountain, investing his time in others and progressing and pushing the limits on what was possible in the parks. Colombo's list of builds is hefty and long, including projects for brands such as Smith Optics, Snowboarder Magazine and big industry events like Superpark and X Games.  As Colombo transitioned over to work with Snowpark Technologies, he became a key operator and influencer, contributing to Sun Valley Resort, ID. While there, Colombo helped to establish their Terrain Park program, along side Brian Callahan.Peter Colombo stays with our podcasts trend of individuals who tell it as they see it. Colombo is wise, insanely talented and notably humble; crediting others before himself.  Currently Colombo and his wife reside in Hawaii and manage a charter boat business dedicated to whale watching and snorkel trips. In this "deep dive" We discuss work/life balance, managing the skill sets of individuals, failure and learnings, team work and the autonomy sometimes needed for individuals on the team, operator insecurities with respect to feedback and what leading a team to ground breaking success looks like from someone whose done it best!Enjoy...  and if you're in the machine, go ahead and TURN THE VOLUME UP!Follow us on:https://www.instagram.com/thebladedive/https://www.facebook.com/thebladedive

Sammy Luebke was a derelict child prodigy from Alaska who took the snowboard world by storm at a young age.  At 9, he was getting his first video clips, at 15, he was featured in Snowboarder Magazine, he learned from the best filming with Brain Farm, and then he got hurt.  When that happened, Sammy’s world changed.  He lost his first sponsor, had his first kid, and got married in his early 20’s.  With an uncertain future, Sammy hit the Freeride World Tour and proved that the first part of his career was no fluke.  This 3X FWT World Champion has gone through more than most snowboarders on his way to success.  Sammy Luebke Show Notes: 2:00:  Current Status, email name and growing up in AK 6:00:  Snowboarding, Boarderline Camp, and JB Deuce 10:30:  Growing up fast, divorce and Tahoe culture shock 14:00:  Winning 5 USASA’s, Sponsors, and derelict kid   20:00:  Stanley:  Get 30% off site wide with the code powell30 Evo:  The best online experience in action sports with retail to back it up 22:00:  Money, Standard, The Constant Struggle, Travis Rice 30:00:  Attitude, The Storming, injury, and Masters Events 37:00:  Losing sponsors, having a kid, and worry 39:00:  Spy Optic:  Get 20% off on their site Spyoptic.com using the code TPM20 10 Barrel Brewery:  Buy their beers, they support action sports more than anyone The Summit At Snoqualmie:  41:15: Are his days of being a pro over, the change in focus, and injury 59:00:  Inappropriate Questions with Patrick McCarthy

You can tell that just from hearing charles reid in that interview. If you live and ride in BC, and you're at the highest level your shit is no joke. You can rip a sled. You can throw double corks off backcountry booter, You know how to ride in avalanche conditions. You're a boss in the backcountry. I know this, you know this, this is a known fact.   The crazy thing to me is seeing Joy, and more specifically Overjoy which really laid out the backstory to what the movie Joy is and how these guys who are at the top of the game in competitive snowboarding were able to take it to the backcountry. Obviously they had mentors in certain spots. Iguchi and Carter in Jackson, Danny Davis in Tahoe. What we are witnessing here is a passing of the torch if you ask me. It would be amazing to see the crew from Who Cares link up with the Riders from Joy and see what kind of crazy shit would come out of that.   Sunokero Korua pow movie Japan - snorkel https://vimeo.com/367935705   Every shot is framed so well that you could pause it at any moment and there you would have a photo you could mount on the wall of your chalet. If there's one thing we cant count on year after year is footage coning out of Japan. The Korua crew was able to showcase the vibe and feel of the ride in Japan. Utilizing camera angles that highlight the depth of the snow and the placement of the trees as much as characters as the snowboarders themselves.       Overjoyed The making of the movie Joy. Aired on the World of X-Games on ABC.   Future Mystic Brandon Cocard and Mike Rav's movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZ6q_j6Wgfs   Clip of the Week   Last week   Powder in Alaska  1260 double nose Seb Koninjenberg Vlad Khadarin with a revert   Click on the paper airplane to share your favorite Clip of the Week to your Story #scrollawards Scroll Awards for 10/28/19    Eero Ettala Early Grab FS3 https://www.instagram.com/p/B4CxOw4HXqD/   Fabian Fraidl Ghost Slide https://www.instagram.com/p/B4IFkVEAAwd/   Mans Hedberg Disaster Revert https://www.instagram.com/p/B4KWiISFR7v/   Kalle Jarviehto Murphy Flip https://www.instagram.com/p/B4IFbgBgmmK/   Kevin Backstrom Slash Crash https://www.instagram.com/p/B4KUyzrn9dw   Kevin Backstrom Butter Landing https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Hp5EQnMdR   Sebbe DeBuck Double shifty FS 3 w/ grab https://www.instagram.com/p/B4AL_8lCFCR/   Bode Merrill  Shuv it to flip  https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Kt2QGpOZm/ CONCLUSION/GOODBYES/HOUSEKEEPING   Correction: Helgasons did not win a Norwegian snowboard award because they are not norwegian.

Bonus Episode - Danny Kass Daniel "Danny" Kass (born September 21, 1982) is an American professional snowboarder who has competed at the Olympic level. Kass was born in Pompton Plains section of Pequannock Township, New Jersey. He grew up in New Jersey where he began snowboarding at the age of twelve. His home slopes are what are now known as Hidden Valley and Mountain Creek ski resorts both located in the mountains of Vernon Township and Highland Lakes. After several years of shredding around the Mid-Atlantic States, Kass entered into the Okemo Mountain School to focus more of his time on riding some of the better pipe and park in the East. In 2001, Danny broke out into what has become one of the most successful contest streaks in snowboarding with four US Open Championships, seven Winter X Games medals and two Olympic silver medals. During the winter of 2006, Kass fought his way back from a slow start in the US Grand Prix Circuit to qualify for the Olympics in Torino for the second time in a row. And just like in 2002, Kass took home another silver medal with back-to-back 1080s and his signature smooth style. Kass and his brother Matt Kass were the founders of Grenade Gloves, which specializes in snowboarding gloves, accessories, and other extreme sporting gear. Kass is one of the stars of The Adventures of Danny and The Dingo on Fuel TV. Danny Kass has since road off into the sunset and has yet to be heard from in 2019...

Filming: you can be so creative, no rules on what has to be done, no lines you have to take. It's all you and your ideas and how you see snowboarding and you put it down as you see it. You can ride powder jumps, cliff…Do as you please and see where the fun in snowboarding is. Session with friends: cool to see others enjoy the day and share something, being together. Often snowboarding is so individual and riding with friends can make everything better. Building moments together that you enjoy Powder riding: you feel so light, from one pillow to the other you slide along the mountain, like surfing, you get hundreds of possibilities to use the mountain. In powder riding, you see and decide the way you want to use the mountain. You can do whatever you like and it's soft so you can fall and try stuff. Slope shredding: I love it! Ride down the slope and slide, bonk or spin on things that weren't made for it. It's also a perfect training to get your board control which is something I like a lot in snowboarding and use the slope differently each time…it's endless. Worst thing about Contests: Pressure, a lot of pressure. It's not the best conditions but you have to give your best and go for it. It can be dangerous sometimes and you have to think of what you want to risk and how much. You have to stomp the trick and do your best, you don't have the control of the timing. Filming: It's way different than I thought it would be. It's not about riding like you like. It's hiking, searching, making decisions with the crew and at the end of it you might just ride few laps and it has to be the craziest tricks you have ever pulled on a huge spot and that's it for the day. Session with friends: nothing sucks Powder riding: As beautiful as it can be it can be dangerous, not only the snow layer is dangerous, you have to watch out for stones, rocks and trees as well. Slope shredding: when it's icy, it sucks.   What is your definition of ‘The Search' ? The Search for me is surely mostly looking to get out there and being on a snowboard, to get good conditions and searching for the most possible ways of having fun. It's a search through the sport and for perfect snow to push new tricks while enjoying the moment with your friends.
