Thank U Snowboarding - S3 - Ep8 - Ash Strain

Ash is another one of those people who has an infectious energy for snowboarding. His path has taken in many facets of the lifestyle of snowboarding, from a job in the industry to playing in bands out in the Alps, (probably in the wrong order) and maybe he lost the love for it at points.

As a community we are thankful that Ash is still with us. Sadly, the lifestyle of snowboarding can be an easy place to get lost in, and I think this is a conversation that is starting slowly to be had, but one that there are quite a few people who aren't willing to have it.

If you are worried about the amount of alcohol you are consuming or worried about a loved one, then you can speak to Drinkline on 0300 123 1110 which is an NHS service, or you can get help and advice from https://alcoholchange.org.uk/help-and-support/get-help-now or https://www.alcoholics-anonymous.org.uk/

Luckily, we do still have Ash and his infectious laughter and smile, and I for one, hope to see him on a board soon, and take some laps and hear some more of his stories on a chairlift.

If you want to know more about the Thank U Snowboarding Community Camp in March 26, there are details here: https://thankusnowboarding.wixsite.com/spring2026 or you can email us at thankusnowboarding@gmail.com

If you are interested in merch, then hit us up at thankusnowboarding@gmail.com

We are supported by the rad crew at The Snowboard Asylum, and their new website with all this seasons product is online now: https://www.snowboard-asylum.com/

We are also looked after by Dan and Lizzie at Burton https://www.burton.com/gb/en and Tom at High Days for Volcom https://highdaysltd.com/

I'd like to take a moment to introduce FourTwenTea, which is delicious tea embibed with CBD oil, which I have been drinking over this summer, just to help keep my brain from overheating. Its completely natural, Jemma, the owner, is a snowboarder and total legend and I can't recommend this stuff enough, so go check it out: https://fourtwentea.com/

Peace x
