Summary
Josh Bibby is one of those standout Canadian skiers who made his way to the pro rankings via the competition circuit and spent some time on the bubble of the slopestyle scene and then left that all in the rear-view mirror to film for video parts. The thing that really sets Josh apart from the rest, aside from his style, is his amazing, funny personality and antics. On the podcast we talk about coming up in moguls, the Vernon crew, working with me, sponsors, money, firefighting, and a whole lot more.

| 0:12.4 | Welcome to the Powell Movement. |
| 0:15.8 | I'm your host Mike Powell, and this week I received a care package from the guys over at Freeze magazine with a |
| 0:21.9 | couple of hoodies and t-shirts. Back in the day, Freeze and Blunt were the only magazines that |
| 0:27.1 | mattered to me. And Freeze sent me some goodies so I could tell you about where you can buy your |
| 0:31.7 | freeze merchandise. And you can do that over at freezemerch.com and all the profits go to the |
| 0:37.0 | Sarah Burke Foundation, |
| 0:38.3 | the McConkey Foundation, and Alpine Initiatives in Memory of J.P. O'Clair. |
| 0:43.1 | Freeze will always be the most important magazine in skiing to me. |
| 0:46.5 | Speaking of magazines, I've mentioned that ski magazine has a new subscription service model. |
| 0:51.8 | I'm not sure how many issues you can expect from them, but that is happening. |
| 0:55.8 | Mountain Gazette is also back in a giant format that comes out twice a year, and now, an old title |

| 1:19.8 | I was hoping to be back to my normal self by now. |
| 1:22.6 | But if I try to do a sit-up when I get halfway back up to the sitting position, the pain I get is unbearable. |
| 1:28.7 | The good news is it only hurts when I do that motion or when I land a jump, and I don't even |
| 1:33.6 | want to think about the pain I'm going to experience if I fall again. So I have this problem with my |
| 1:38.3 | ass that's going on, but I have a worse issue that I shouldn't share, but I will. I've mentioned |
