Evan Raps was my fav original OG freeskier .. the spy ad on the tree.. I got sponsored by spy casue of that ad.

The interviewer turned into a straight dickhead near the last 20 minutes of this interview, throwing so much shade. Props to Charlie for keeping his cool 🤙🏼

The TANNER VS DUMONT battle was REAL! A game where amplitude goes up against style and in the end everyone wins! :)

dude is a legend. im not even into skiing, been snowboarding like twice. dude is a L E G E N D

I battle cocaine and alcohol addiction. I have for like 30 years. I hope Charley is doing better these days.

Legend

In a world that's grossly oversaturated - the coolest thing you can ever do is retain your mystery.

This is cool. I found out about Charlie Ager from the ski bum video

Damn this podcast was tough to listen to when he talks about falling off, battling with addiction and going to rehab. This guy could have done so much more with his talent and personality but he just didn’t give a shit.

Great epi

wow. Hard to believe... no views

Nice share!! You could get more fans with S M Z E U S!!!

Good interview of a good dude. Mark was my Atomic Rep when I worked for Gart. Used to go to his shows at Gilley's all the time. And worked security (my pt gig) when he went on his own and opened for Diamond Rio at Baldini's. PHIL FROM RENO

Can you post the first podcast with Tom

This was so awesome

Johan belongs in snowboarding's hall of fame and this is a reflective interview detailing the path of an industry pioneer. The vision he had for Powder Tools and the niche he intended the shop to occupy in the local scene (and beyond!) was sick to behold. Customer service and playing well with others can take you far.

Good interview. Thanks for sharing.

White privilege. I’m out.

Rip sir. Terrible news

Rest in paradise, Ben.

Fuck yeah the good homie!

Great! keep it coming :D!!! Become a YT god > Promo sm!!

Definitely one of the leaders of our sport for years. An icon. Now that blading is back, will we see Cesar re-emerge?

stumbled upon this. Any idea when 'nothings for free' comes out?

thanks Mike. i discovered the Powell Movement first and then the Bomb Hole. now I'm back around to hear E-Stone on the Powell Movement. how RAD!

E STONE is the coolest dude ever

Mad Respect: Eric Schrijn is an absolute Legend in Rollerblading. He was always kind to the younger skaters coming into the scene and never had an ego. Just a humble pro skater.

❤️

I snowboarded with Jimbo at Squaw Valley for years. Respected , smoothest skier on the mountain. A true legend. 👍

ben's a complete wackjob. don't do drugs, kids.

Dig the podcast. Can’t stand the word “beanie”. It’s a touque!!!! 🇨🇦

Dude please get Trevor on the show. 👻🇨🇦

Devils Head ski area, awesome to hear it mentioned. My first downhill ski experience was not for from there at NordicMountain/MtMorris, WI. Amazing what happens to skiers from Wisconsin.

I remember those “Smoke a fatty for Ross Rebagliati” stickers all over Whistler in ‘98.

Great podcast I just stumbled on. Kills the time at work on the computer!! Just finished the John Cardiel, Mimi Knoop, Mike Ranquet, Seth Westcott episodes. Awesome stuff! I remember seeing Mark And Seth ride a Demo at my local hill in Wentworth , Nova Scotia back in the day. I'm thinking '96 or '97. Maybe even '95. A few of my friends got to ride it after signing waivers of course. Trevor Andrew was there ripping too. Such an epic day. I remember Mark hitting the kicker they got our groomer guy to make on his race setup. I wonder if Mark remembers that day?? Love to hear an episode with Trev, aka TRZA! Cheers from CANADA eh!

Man I appreciate this... I gained a family in Colorado and I'm stuck. I AM AN IDAHOAN DAMNIT. Love my kids I miss my home.

Glad to hear Jimbos voice! True competitor, raced with him those years as well. Those were the days of real speed skiers. We had to fight hard to make the cuts. Tracks were rough!

This was such a great listen. Always wanted to know what happened to this guy. Legendary switch landings and that whistler ski bum video. Theory 3 back in the day too. So sick

Keep it coming! I think you will be interested in P r o m o S M!!

Very insightful.

Good interview

Sick

bring birk back after the olympics

I love her... I watched her grow up as a young athelete in SUNDAY RIVER, MAINE

I'm a blader so I only know pat from his few appearances in VG back in the day. he sounds so embarrassed and ashamed talking about it now lol. I remember him hating on blading in a snowboard magazine years ago and wondered why since he was so close to people like dave Paine. anyways - its funny that rollerblading is such a source of shame for guys like him. like who cares?

Dude was my camp counselor at Lake Owen. He treated us great, helped me work on a ton of tricks...legit is a great dude imho! Dustin Latimer, Kevin Gillan, Josh Petty and Joe Navran all came to the camp that week and were also insanely nice to me. One of the very best memories a inline obsessed kid could possibly have - I'm forever grateful for those good vibes!

Thanks for doing this podcast. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it. As a 35 year old sitting at a more "cerebral' job with a sore knee from my freeskiing days, this conversation helped me reflect on what that time in my life means to me. It's great to hear that Evan made such a solid transition to a non-athletic career. Keep up the good work.

‘sup?! Ww! really unusual .
