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.

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:

Klaus Obermeyer has had a bigger impact on skiing than any man alive, and when he wasn’t innovating the sport, he was in Aspen or traveling the world to ski. He was often found surrounded by a harem of beautiful women. In part 2 of his podcast, we talk about inventing sunscreen, mirrored sunglasses, ski brakes, the down jacket, and so much more. It’s crazy the innovations and the fun that Klaus has brought to skiing over his 105 years

Klaus Obermeyer Show Notes Part 2:

4:00: Aspen, 1947 ski school, Freedle Pfieffer, inventing a new ski boot, inventing sun block, raising money, inventing the down jacket,
