And while his skiing started with contests, he graduated to the big screen and for 23 years  he's put out a video segments with the major players in the ski film business. Tanner Rainville is all about passion and skiing, he doesn't self promote and getting him to want to do this podcast wasn't easy.  But, for a dude who's been crushing it at the top level for so long, I had to tell his story.

    Jaren Grob, aka "The Monster" won two X Games Gold Medals, was featured on the cover of the Aggressive Inline video game, and had the world in the palm of his hands. Then his sport was iced out of X Games, went underground and Jaren's pro career went from contest winnings to skating shows. But, that's not what makes this one interesting.

    Kaya Turski, Pro Skier, Pro Rollerblader

    Kaya Turski grew up in Montreal and was the little rollerblader who was blowing everyone's collective minds. While Kaya went ASA Pro at 14, she was known for being a gnarly street skater. One of the best women to ever do it. But the bottom dropped out of skating, Kaya decided to give skiing a try and within a year, she was standing on her first X-Games podium in a sport that wasn't her original calling. From there, Kaya went on to dominate competition skiing.  Think 8 X Games Golds, 5 AFP Titles and so many more victories to boot. But her story is not all sunshine, the years of abuse has taken its toll on her body and mind and Kaya and I talk about all the glory but we also talk about the daily pain that is her reality.
