Snowboard and commercial director/filmmaker John Cavan joins the podcast to talk about his many years in the industry working with brands like Grenade, Rome, and Snowboarder Magazine, filming the rise of some of the biggest stars in the sport and documenting what many would consider one of the best eras of snowboarding. During our conversation we discuss his recent film project "Rough Around the Edges: 30 Years of Ride Snowboards" and share some of our memories of the late 90s and early 2000s snowboard scene, what his early years on the east coast were like and how that would lead to his first film "Iron Curtain", what it was like filming a young rising star Danny Kass and the birth of the Grenade crew, whether or not being a team manager for Rome Snowboards made him feel younger or older, what the last days at Snowboarder Magazine were like, and the advice he gives to others chasing their own creative dreams.
