Eric Jackson spent half his life chasing his older brother around, the other half, he's spent chasing powder. There have been highs and a lot of lows, mostly related to injury and sponsors, in Erik's snowboard career. But like his snowboard style, he powered through everything. The podcast is a refreshing chat with a dude who seems like he has figured out a lot about his life and who he is.
