Ming Poon is a very accomplished photographer and environmental advocate based in the outdoor Mecca of Lake Tahoe. His path up to this point took a very unexpected detour when he was thrust into the world of big business and a move to China after the death of his father. We talk about Ming's constant evolution from aspiring guide to expat executive to photographer, environmentalist and then father and how he takes each new challenge and incorporates it into his very rich life.

Josh Daiek returns to the LPP! This time we spoke in his kitchen in South Lake Tahoe on one of his rare off days. Josh is a true workhorse with an energy dedicated to the projects he creates that is hard to rival. One such project is the third installment to his "Mountain State" film project which highlights the lesser traveled mountain ranges in Nevada that host the epic lines he has become known for.
The two of us also talk about skiing with dogs, training and safety in the mountains, the benefits of having no expectations and the difficulty balancing between work and play when you do what you love for a job.

This is the full RECAP of the FWT24 Yeti Verbier Xtreme
This fifth, and final, event of the season was the cherry on top of an amazing, record breaking cycle of the Freeride World Tour. This comp had drama. It had suspense. It had runs that once again pushed forward progression of the sport and it had riders who wouldn't know if they'd be champions until the last rider crossed the finish.

Je Paq literally launched onto the scene when the clip of his triple front flip off the backside of Whistler Mountain went super viral. One trick doesn't make the skier though as he has been consistently showing us that his skiing ability isn't relegated to a single impressive moment.
Je Paq is a true "ski bum", living in his car skiing and every single day. He tells us a few of his tips for keeping his gear dry, where to charge his phone to how to spend each night relaxing in a sauna. You'll even learn what to if you ever hit a black bear with a Honda Fit!

Stinius Skjøtskift ( pronounced Shot-Shift) is a Norwegian skier who's path to becoming a pro athlete has been determined by several fateful moments and his willingness to just "go with it". Trying to join the military and being denied, then accepted led to him winning a couple freeride comps all while Dj-ing nightclubs on the weekends, as a teenager. Listen to him tell his fascinating journey. We also talk about the new film he's in, "Lexicon", which was produced by Arc'teryx and features skiers from 6 different countries all travelling to Japan to enjoy deep powder. Along the way they uncover the universal language of skiing. A Lexicon that emerges through the act of being present and connected. #LISTENTOSKIING

Maxime Chabloz is a RedBull athlete for two different sports and he competes on two different World Tours, simultaneously! One being The Freeride World Tour, which he won in 2022, and the other he kite boards on the GKA Kite World Tour.
Max explains how he's able to juggle both, sometimes flying from one event in the mountains to another on the beach and back again. The Swiss born Chabloz is as unique as his story which is laid out in the recent film on his life, Petit Suisse, which follows him around the globe with an un-intrusive, fly on the wall perspective.

Lily Bradley is a competitor and event winner on the Freeride World Tour who identifies as Queer / Non Binary. They are in the short film. "People Like Us", that explores queer identity in mountain towns and snow sports.
Lily talks with Mark about the inherent difficulties growing up in a sport feeling very different from everyone else and figuring out how to navigate that maze. They also realize that understanding the nuance of a topic like this is difficult to understand and we discuss it together with humour and a willingness to learn.

The second event of the FWT season saw the tour return to Canada at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort in Golden, BC Canada. The comp couldn't be held on the OZONE face as intended due to poor conditions and was switched to T1 South, the same face as 2022. As expected the riders did their thing including another level unlocked by a Ski Women's competitor.

Simon Hillis is a pro skier who was born in Bali, Indonesia but grew up in Rossland, BC skiing at Red Mountain. It's a good thing his family ended up in settling in the Kootenay Mountains because he's proven he belongs on a pair of skis. As a child Simon was hard to beat on the Junior freeride circuit consistently winning North American and Local championships alike. He's since shifted his focus to filming after a chance to shoot Warren Miller as a teenager and hasn't looked back since.
We talk about crafting his own web series project, Nearly Nowhere, shooting with TGR, his experiences an asian pro skier, Scuba Diving and lots more.

Brooklyn Bell is an important person at the forefront of the movement responsible for raising awareness and building representation in not only skiing but also mountain biking and the greater outdoor industry.
This is a conversation I was grateful to be able to have because I haven’t had many like this. I'm grateful to Brooklyn for being able to ask her, someone from the BIPOC community, about their experience in this world we all choose to recreate and participate in.
