Jeremy Jones: The Art of Schralpinism Backcountry Magazine Podcast

- Sports
From a distance, Jeremy Jones’s career looks impossible. He is, after all, a pro snowboarder, entrepreneur, activist, filmmaker and author. Does he ever sleep? Nevermind that he’s also a husband, father and active community member in Truckee, California.
Somehow, he still manages to snowboard around 200 days a year. The founder of Jones Snowboards has stayed true to his passions while owning and operating one of the most innovative brands in the sport. At any given time, you might find him on a Tahoe skintrack or in Washington, D.C., advocating for the planet on behalf of Protect Our Winters, an organization he founded in 2007.
In this episode, Jeremy reflects on the impact of the life of the late Craig Kelly, whose untimely death while training to become a guide set the sport of backcountry snowboarding back a decade. Jeremy also speaks about his own personal journey, from being the first certified snowboarder at Mt. Mansfield in Stowe, Vermont, to riding some of the raddest lines on the planet and the pure joy he finds in powsurfing.
