Ask Josh
Wenn du einen Tag mit einem anderen SMITH verbringen könntest, wer wäre das und warum?
I would like to spend some more time with Mountain Bike athlete Adam Craig. We went on an incredible snow/bike trip in Moab Utah a couple years back. Even though he lives just a 5-minute walk from my house in Bend, we still haven’t got another chance to ride together again. I would love to spend some more time in the mountains with him.
Was ist deine größte Angst oder deine Achillesferse?
My biggest fear in the mountains is avalanches. High avalanche danger makes it impossible to relax. Basically, I go snowboarding to relax not to worry about stuff. These days flat and powdery terrain makes me the happiest.
Was bestellst du normalerweise im Café?
Over the years, my nights at the bar have turned into days in the coffee shop. My normal order at a coffee shop would be a traditional cappuccino, maybe two. If am racing off for first chair at Mt. Bachelor, I prefer a simple drip coffee for the road. And if I am already in the mountains camping, I will mix up a fancy freeze-dried coffee with my camp stove.
Wenn du kein unglaublicher Sportler wärst, was wärst du dann?
I would love to be a better surfer. Just seems like to perfect sport to grow old with.
Was ist dein Lieblingsprodukt SMITH ?
My favorite product is my Mission Helmet. I finally started snowboarding with a helmet just a few years ago. Now, I wear it every single moment that I am in the mountains: uphill, downhill, eating lunch. The only time I really take it off is to adjust some layers or when my boots finally come off at the end of the day. A lot of people think I am weird for wearing it so much, but I don’t mind. I figure the easiest place to carry my helmet is on my head.
Welche 5 Dinge darfst du auf keinen Fall zu Hause vergessen?
My phone (to keep in touch with my family), a board of some sorts (snowboard, skateboard, surfboard), snacks (swiss chocolate is preferred), coffee (see question above), and sunglasses.
Wenn du eine Superkraft haben könntest, welche wäre das?
The ability to “solve” Climate Change. Might sound like an odd choice, but I have witnessed too many negative changes in the mountains and in the snow industry to not care greatly. For myself, being a pro snowboarder involves sitting down with politicians and lawmakers to discuss the negative changes I am witnessing in the mountains and then search for some common solutions. A Climate Change “super power” would make this process quicker and easier for everyone.
