Thank U Snowboarding - S3 - Ep22 - Sam Haddad

I know Sam through mutual friends and from the school playground and although I knew she had worked in the snowboard media, I didn't realise how hard she worked to make womens snowboarding appear as it should be and not just another canvas for make up or whatever. Her quiet influence on womans snowboarding is now reaping rewards as the womens events at the recent olympics are arguably more interesting than the mens currently.

Its people like Sam we need to thanks for keeping the media from turning our beloved sport(?) into something shit, and for that, we need to hear her story.

If you are interested in merch, we have T's and Hoodies in all sizes, hit us up at thankusnowboarding@gmail.com

We are supported by the rad crew at The Snowboard Asylum: https://www.snowboard-asylum.com/

We are also looked after by Dan and Lizzie at Burton https://www.burton.com/gb/en

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/
