Jeff Pensiero is a talented snowboarder and musician, but he was born to be an entrepreneur...and he knew that from an early age. Jeff grew up learning to move on after losing, which every pre Lebron Cleveland sports fan knows all about. Not being afraid to lose along with many traits taught Jeff not only to roll with the punches and preservere, but to take advantage of the opportunities and take risks that make him happy. And from Kemper to K2, to being “The Guy with a Truck” to founding and building Baldface Lodge in his 20’s, Jeff’s life is all about moving forward and not looking back. On the podcast we talk about building snowboarding in Tahoe for K2, chasing a girl to Canada, founding a lodge, Travis Rice, Craig Kelly, and more. Jeff does a lot of interviews, this one is a little different. Old School K2 Pro, legendary film maker, and rad dude, Tim Manning asks the Inappropriate QuestionsDustin Lalik.Jeff Pensierokphoto

Ben Fresco has done every job in the ski industry's hardgoods side on his way to his current role as Global Head of Product at Elan Skis. From moving his life from the East Coast to Tahoe and back to the East Coast and now, on a plane traveling the world, Ben's been chasing the perfect turn. And starting out at the legendary Village Ski House, he did over a decade of, not so much ski bumming, but learning. Starting in rentals and working his way to the sales floor, to store managing, and really, running the show. Then it was back East to a buyer's role before finding his forever home in Elan. It's a fun episode with one of my podcast's biggest supporters. Colorado sales rep Clem Smith asks the Inappropriate Questions. link in

Heimana Reynolds is an Olympic Skateboarder, a life long surfer, proud Hawaiin, and a HEST athlete. Since I spent this weekend at HESTIVAL, a three day celebration of friends, music, and the outdoors, this episode includes a few minutes from HESTIVAL with old friend and HEST founder Aaron Ambuske. After that, while I usually don’t have many skateboarders on, it’s on to my second World Champion skater who also slays the streets and surf. It’s a two part episode with a HEST connection.

Chris Garcin is living a ski bum or anyone’s dream life and it all began when his good friend broke a pair of sunglasses. This week’s podcast is Chris’s story of going from a passionate skier his whole life, to Boulder, to coaching, to almost giving up on the ski lifestyle and settling for the “real world.” Then, his rockstar of a good friend came over to his house with an idea, Pit Viper, that became a joke, a brand, a business, and today, a real business. The Pit Viper story is a fun one and former VP of Brand, Spencer Harkins, asks the Inappropriate Questions.

The 420
Episode is a collection of true stories from me, friends, and athletes that I think you'll find entertaining. I've never done a proper 4/20 episode before, and I wanted to make sure I got one in before I end this podcast. So, this week you get a different episode.
It's the 420 episode, the w**d epsiode, the cannabis episode, the ma*****na episode. If you have kids, maybe have them skip this podcast. But if you like to laugh, tune in. Some names have been changed to protect identity and image.

Luca and Ben Harrington were both born to be pro skiers. Their parents were featured in Warren Miller Movies in the 90’s, and these kids were born with skiing genes and the passion to be the best. And right now, the Harrington brothers are killing it. Benni’s the built-like-a-tank older brother that’s 2-time Olympic halfpipe skier and Luca is coming off back-to-back seasons of X Games Gold and recently took home his first piece of Olympic hardware with a Bronze. It’s the 2 brothers, one podcast episode and Uncle E asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Josh Malczyk is the Global Brand Director for K2 and Line Skis, he’s a good friend, and a guy I saw go from the bottom of the barrel of ski marketing with a niche brand, to the top of the food chain directing one of the industry’s most iconic brands....From the core skier wearing Tall T’s to the collared shirt wearing brand guy. It’s fun to see friends grow up/move up and last time I talked with Josh on the podcast, he was secretly on his way out of Line Skis for the first time. On part 2, we talk about leaving his job, Season Equipment, coming back to Elevate Outdoor Collective, how K2 became a boot company, and how to bring K2 Skis back.
