Episode 29

Dark Starts backcountry splitboarding podcast presents splitboarder and photographer Ryan Irvin.

• Discovered he preferred still life to the monotony of video editing, picked up a DSLR instead and now shoots epic pics
  
• Rides for Venture Snowboards, because they are solidly handcrafted by shredders for shredders in the USA
  
• Tried and tested gear rundown, and deep knowledge of snow that only comes from years of experience in the backcountry
  

Coming from the Pacific Northwest, Ryan has a soft spot in his heart for alpine starts and long corn runs. He studied video production and outdoor education at Mount Hood Community College, where he got sucked into the obsession of splitboarding and mountaineering. He's currently living the seasonal lifestyle with time split between Oregon, Salt Lake City, Alaska, and Southwest Colorado. His passion will be your listening pleasure!
