    Bas van Steenbergen, Pro Biker

    Bas van Steenbergen has been a dual threat on his mountain bike for over a decade.  Part racer and part freerider, Bas has the rare ability to compete at the highest level in both disciplines.  While that’s cool, his story is even better. Growing up overseas with his equally as rad little brother Tom, Bas, raced BMX until he moved to Canada and bought a mountain bike. And while he got on a big bike later than most, that didn’t stop him and the rest is history.  On the podcast, we talk about the status of the bike industry, sponsorship, Downhill, Rampage, content and more. Little brother Tom van Steenbergen asks the Inappropriate Questions. Bas Van Steenbergen Show Notes: 4:00: Snowboarding, the bike industry, carnage after the pandemic, sponsors, bike compoundnds, movies, his crazy upbringing, biking in EU, 22:00: 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!

    Craig Murray, Pro Skier

    Craig Murray, aka Weezy Davis, is arguably the best skier in the world. Fresh off a win at Travis Rice’s Natural Selection, an event where Craig went head-to-head with the best big mountain skierrs in the world and showcased a different vision, speed and style than almost anyone else in the comp…But what’s different about Craig is how humble he is. While skiing is something that he does and he’s one of the best, he can easily get lost in the crowd off the hill because he has zero ego or need to be known.  He's one of those guys that's the best at what he’s doing now, and at some point, he’ll be the best at something else. He’s smart, calculated, and who knows where life will take this guy. Finn Woods askes the Inappropriate Questions Craig Murray Show Notes: 4:00: His nickname, traveling with no passport, his brother, does biking influence his skiing, his sister, his adventure racer parents, growing up without a TV and having a loose leash, and moving to Chamonix at 17 22:00: 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!

    Mike Douglas is the legendary skier who helped change the direction the industry was going in the late 90s with the Salomon 1080. From there, he has filmed with everyone, had a long, productive career, and has been the brainchild of Salomon's Freeski TV for the past 16 years, and now is the ski point person for Travis Rice's Natural Selection Tour.

    Cameron Talbott, Pro Skater

    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. Cameron Talbott Show Notes: 4:00:  Being related to the Marlboro Man, snowboarding, his family situation, his badass mom, abuse, getting inline, community, California, and getting in Daily Bread at 15 21:00:   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!

    MAY 26

    TPM Episode 436: Janelle Yip, Pro Skier

    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. Janelle Yip Show Notes: 4:00:  Parking, front teeth, sponsors, Ringettes, Windell’s, Canada Olympic Park, her gap year, and the dream of becoming a pro skier 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!
