Thank U Snowboarding · Sep 16, 2025 · 21m

Ian is one of the guys in snowboarding who has helped shape the UK scene, but who never craves the spotlight, indeed, he is unlikely to want his own full episode of the podcast, so it was a pleasure to get, at least, a little conversation on the P60 chairlift in Laax during the open.
