Mike Hatchett is the guy behind standard films, the company that produced the totally bored series of snowboard movies. Tb2 through Tb10 were the soundtrack to my early adult life working at the Boardroom. Mike’s ability to combine progressive snowboarding with heavy metal music has never been replicated. Mike Hatchett put together the most epic crews of pro snowboarders and brought them to Alaska where they were able to push the boundaries of what’s possible in freestyle big mountain snowboarding. And as you’ll hear, mike, was taking soul laps with them the entire time. I can’t overstate how important Mike Hatchett is to snowboarding. I’m absolutely honoured to have him on the show!

Jim Rippey had the best selling pro model in the world for seven years during my favourite era, the early 90’s. As a top Burton pro he filmed with Standard and Mack Dawg and his parts were highly anticipated. He is a World Champion, a US Open Champion, a three time Vans Triple Crown Champion, an Innsbruck Air & Style Champion and has won countless other titles. He’s the first guy to backflip a snowmobile on film. As his career was winding down, he became a chaplain at the X games. Jim Rippey is one of those pro snowboarders that fell off the map and left everyone wondering where did he wind up!? So In this conversation we catch up with Jim and go deep into his snowboarding roots.

What is 1910 you ask? Jamie and Schoph are launching an artist apparel brand and the stuff looks killer. Im very stoked to bring you this interview with Schoph!

Jason Ford was on the Burton Pro Team aside Brushie, Craig, Jacoby, Alex Warburton, Jimi Scott... you get the picture. And he was one of the competitors who really gave Craig a lot of pressure on the World Champion Title side of things. Just as Burton was negotiating a Jason Ford Pro Model, Jason, Tim Pogue, and a handful of industry rebels created Ride Snowboards. Jason and Ride made history and world wide news when Ride went public. In his third act as a pro snowboarder Jason helped Salomon develop a snowboard program. This conversation covers all this and more. Stoked to bring it to you!

Ken Achenbach is a Canadian snowboarder who changed the course of history by opening the world's first Snowboard shop in Calgary in the early 80's. Ken was friends with Jake Carpenter, Tom Sims, Craig Kelly, Regis Rolland, Chuck Barfoot, Evan Feen, and a million other pioneering snowboarders. Ken started Camp Of Champions on Blackcomb. He also placed 2nd (tied with Jeff Grell) at the second world championships of snowboarding in Soda Springs. He got second at the Legendary Banked Slalom at Mt Baker when it was simply the Banked Slalom. It is hard to explain how integral Ken has been in the innovation of snowboarding. I was lucky enough to ride with him last year and he still loves it, you can tell.. Here is an interview from his home in Whistler... the one and only Ken Ach

Bud Fawcett was among a handful of snowboard photographers whose images in early magazines made you look to see who took them. He shot with guys like Terry Kidwell, Shaun Palmer, Andy Hetzel, Tina and Mike Basich, Ranquet, and Craig. If you've seen his photos you know what I'm talking about when I say there's something very special about a Bud Fawcett image. His story begins with a road trip and we were on a road trip when we stayed with him at his home 40 years later... This is one of those life experiences I could not have imagine 8 years ago when FNRad started. I'm honoured and feel very proud to bring you this episode with Bud.
