Pro Files Featuring Jason 'Bas' Basarich

This Is What Hardcore Looks Like

Bas could easily be considered one of the most core riders out there - he hd a pro model on Gnu snowboards almost 30 years ago - and still works at, and rides Mt. Baker multiple days each week.

He also started a board company - sold exclusively in the Northwest, featuring local artists to give Baker lots the opportunity to get a high quality constructed board for a reasonable price.

Anyway you cut it, Bas not only 'gets it' he has the experience and perspective to influence change - one baby step at a time.

THE SNOWBOARD PROJECT

Sangye Namdrol • A Quest for Enlightenment • Episode 3.23

Sangye Namdrol has led two different lives - the first was as a kids who grew up in Connectecut, who developed a reputation for being fearless in any kind of bike or snowboarding situation.

Then he picked up Buddhism and you might say the rest is history, starting out at Boulder, Colorado's Naropa University, after a few semesters, he made his way to Nepal and never looked back.

We talk about the journey - in snowboarding and in pursuit of spiritual fulfillment. Sangye has a different perspective on life snowboarding and the grand scheme of things - something we find pretty refreshing here.

Enjoy the episode!

Remembering Jake Burton Carpenter - Bonus Episode Nov 21, 2020

Show notes

This week marks the one year anniversary of losing the sport's most influential rider - founder of Burton Snowboards, Jake Burton Carpenter. This was a heavy episode to put together, as it all so fresh and the people close to him so profoundly affected.

But we did manage to talk with Chris Karol, the sport's first World Champion, Steve Hayes, arguably Burton's first prodigy rider, Ross Powers who won two Olympic medals and ushered the sport into the mainstream and two former Burton employees, Mike Arzt and Frank Phillips who run a business together (thepublicworks.biz.)

Lift Ticket: Resort Riding In COVID Times - Episode Three - Around the World Nov 19, 2020

Show notes

Welcome back to Lift Ticket: Resort Riding in Covid Times.

For this show we've brought in one of the industry experts - Christian Knapp - to fill us in on how the multibillion dollar resort industry is adapting to a virus that has turned the world upside down.

Christian has managed some of the biggest resorts in the world for the past 20 years including Breckenridge and Aspen Snowmass and now he is on the hunt for The Snowboard Project.

The season has arrived - and with it rising cases of Covid and new restrictions being put into place around the country. Fortunately we are still able to ride - a very bright spot on an increasingly dark year.

In this episode of Lift Ticket you can listen to our global roundup where we check in with France, Japan, and Canada to find out the situation with the pandemic in their countries.

How are border restrictions changing the way Canadian snow operators do business? Will Americans be able to go to Japan this year? Are French ski resorts already shut down?

We get the lowdown from the north island of Japan, the French Alps, and Banff, Alberta.

We also check in with Eric Webster, Events Director for the US Ski and Snowboard Team, about the status of competitions from olympic qualifiers, to the X-Games, and even regional comps.

We are still game on for this season even if it is shaping up to be much different than ever before. We ask that all our listeners do their part now to try and slow the spread of Covid so that we can keep these resorts open. Also tag us in your posts and stories so we can see how your experience is going riding resorts this year. Our next episode will cover the perspective of the riders. Tag us with the hashtag #liftticketpodcast and shoot us a DM - we want to know how it's going on your end!
