Here it is, the final episode. As we are transitioning into new things on our end, we thought it would awesome to hear from another person who has been through big changes. Josh Carlson had everything turned on its head at the end of 2023 and his transition into his new position has been unreal. We chat about leaving giant, Commentating, 2025 worldcup changes and life at warner brothers Discovery. 

Thanks to everyone who has listened and supported the podcast over the last 5 year. 

To say this episode was unconventional is an understatement!! We had some tech issues, wild tangents and a whole tonne of insight. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. 

Trek- Trek have been making bike s since 1976 and since then they have been pushing what can be done with a bike. There is a reason that some of the best like brandon semenuk, Reece Wilson, Valli Hoel, Harriet Burbridge, Mike Ross and caroline buchanan ride them, they bloody rip. I am stoked to have them on board this year as we begin to grow at a huge rate.

In this episode, I am stoked to finally sit down with Zoli Borbasi. Zoli is the man behind Volatile Visions and is a part of the reason our sport is where it is today. Without his videos and coverage in the early days the sport may never have grown as big as it is now.
