Tom Hsieh - FNRad S09Bonus2
Tom Hsieh is the godfather of snowboarding media. He started Absolutely Radical Magazine in 1985 years before Transworld. Here we have the story of how he started the world's first snowboard mag and why he eventually changed the name to ISM. This is a piece of snowboarding history I'm seriously proud of. Recorded in person with Tom Hsieh at The Legends of Tahoe event at Donner Ski Ranch where we got to ride powder together along with a group of absolutely radical legends.

Jimi Scott - FNRad S09E24
Jimi Scott dug the pipe at Donner Ski Ranch while we all rode powder. Some things never change. Jimi was 5 times world halfpipe champion. He had iconic pro models on Apocalypse, Lamar, and Ice Age. And he was the pro snowboarder I interacted with more than any other before I started FNRad. This week Jimi talks about his life in snowboarding. Please enjoy!

Darrah Reid McLean & Andrew Geeves - FNRad S09E23
Darrah and Geeves are two Winnipeg legends of professional snowboarding that moved to Whistler after growing up together at Forest Mountain, a converted gravel pit with a rope tow. The two are old friends and their careers happened together almost 20 years apart... Darrah's board is out right now on DWD and Geeves was a part of the legendary DC crew as a young teenager into his late 20's... These tow get along great after all these years and I'm honoured to have them on the show. Enjoy...

Great snowboard podcast! So many awesome stories from snowboard legends! Keep up the great work Erik!
What a find! Keep up the great work! :)
I used to love to read magazine stories of the trips and adventures snowboarders, photographers and industry icons would take. Now hearing a bit more background to those adventures is super neat. I am so glad and thankful that you are doing this and can not wait to hear what comes next!

So its F n RAD to hear you and your guests give high praises to the NW! Haven’t yet but always scheming to venture out and ride Whistler. My wife and I are awaiting our daughters arrival here in the next few days (our first). So We’re watching the snow reports and I’m wondering if I’ll get some turns in this year. Weird times, but thankful for health and family. We hope you and your family are doin well dude. Again, thanks .. keep charging 🍻🤙🏻 cheers
