Joel Strasser and Garrett Smith are friends from Idaho who competed on the CBS show, The Amazing Race. It's a reality competition show in which teams race around the world, deducing clues, navigating foreign territories, performing physical and mental challenges, and traveling by land, air, and sea to win the race and take home 1 million dollars. In Season 35, the pair got second place overall in the competition, and without any sponsorship from us whatsoever, repped Outdoor Vitals gear all along the way. Joel is an Auto Claims Training Specialist who holds over 10 Guinness World Records, all involving the most objects stuck in a beard. Garrett is a delivery driver by profession, and not to be outdone in the facial hair department, has an impressive mustache of his own.

Today we’re talking to David “Moondog” Roop, who’s a thru-skater. Thru-skating, which I’m sure many of you aren’t familiar with, parallels thru-hiking/backpacking, but uses a skateboard or longboard for travel. Moondog is among the pioneers of this new way of outdoor travel, completing notable thru-skates including a 24-day, 492-mile thru-skate of New Mexico, and a skate on the 444-mile Natchez Trace Parkway.

Ben Vaughan is a seasoned adventurer who, after dedicating 22 years to the US Navy, including five combat deployments, made a life-changing choice to retire and embark on a new path. In 2018, he sold his car and belongings to hike the Appalachian Trail for five months, realizing that a conventional job couldn't quench his thirst for adventure: Over the next couple of years, Ben took on the Pacific Crest Trail and Continental Divide trail, earning him the status of Triple Crowner. In 2021, he tackled the demanding Hayduke Trail in just seven weeks and was about to embark on the Pacific Northwest Trail when a unique opportunity emerged: being a dog musher in the remote Alaskan wilderness. He’s also an Outdoor Vitals customer.
