EPISODE 172: JOSH DIRKSEN

Josh Dirksen has arguably the best turn in snowboarding and while that turn will define his legacy,  he’s done so much more in the sport.  Josh  doesn’t do that many interviews and has never done a podcast before, until now.  On the show,  we  talk about having 3 passports, coming up in Oregon, the Morrow glory days, Salomon, the Dirksen Derby, and more.   It’s a good one with a living legend.
