EPISODE 421: JOSH DAIEK

Josh Daiek has been blowing minds for a long time, but you may not know his name. While his skiing may remind you of a cross between Seth Morrison and Hugo Harrison (and that's a bold statement), Josh has yet to have a part in a giant ski movie that would blow up his career.  But, he’s every pro skier’s favorite pro skier all while remaining a little underground. On the podcast we talk about coming up in Detroit, his insane work ethic, moving out west, pro skiing, and a lot more. Stan Rey asks the Inappropriate Questions.
