EPISODE 400: RILEY POOR

Riley Poor landed his dream job, filming backcountry skiers with MSP. His life was a dream, and eventually, he moved on to shoot with Standard Films as a skier, spearheaded a two-year Red Bull project, all while simultaneously managing ski athletes at Nike. He was killing life until a gainer gone wrong at a party created a life-altering injury. On the podcast we talk about moving to Crested Butte, Seth Morrison, the Matchstick mentorship, the accident, and the aftermath.  It’s a must-listen podcast with one of the most beloved people in snow and beyond.
