S2 / EP68: CARSON STORCH
/At first look, there is nothing that stands out about Carson Storch. He looks like an All-American kid fresh out of college figuring out what he is going to do with his life. But that’s not the case, in reality, Carson has been on the same career path since he was looked at as a dreamer when he was 16. He’s a pro Mountain Biker who finds himself at home on big mountains or riding slopestyle. He’s known for having a unique style that can be seen whenever he rides his bike. Hear all about Carson, the Redbull Rampage and more on the podcast.
