Andrew Pollard is one of those kids that grew up at Alta and had the mountain as his babysitter/playground. And while it took Andrew a little longer to become a name in the ski industry--compared to his pro skier friends and classmates, Andrew eventually made it to the top. But what's different and cool about Andrew's story is that he's not just a skier; he's also, an artist, a DJ, freeride coach, and in the podcast, he has no filter. All of this makes for a fun episode and Andrew's little sister Jackie asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Dav still goes on more incredible adventures than almost anyone in the ski industry but these days he's not looking for firsts or anything like that, he's more focused on chasing powder while leading groups that froth over time with Dav in the mountains. He really has built something special with his career, but it hasn't all been easy. On the podcast we talk about the business of Dav, the Peak Ski fiasco, moving forward with a brand he's stoked on, DPS Skis, and a whole lot more.
