Summary

Darian Boyle is one of the pioneering athletes who helped usher the free ski movement to the forefront of the sport, but Darian is so much more than just a champion skier. She’s a model, a lifeguard, a paddleboarder, a boat builder, a marina owner, a bartender, a surfer, a Hobie cat racer, a moto rider, and a mom. She hasn’t slowed down since she started chasing her brothers when she was little. On the podcast, we talk about her incredible ski career, modeling career, television career, her injuries, and so much more. Roy Tuscany is on point in asking the Inappropriate Questions.

0:00.0	Have a seat on your porcelain throne.
0:02.3	It's time to talk some shit on the Powell Movement.
0:13.5	Welcome to the Powell Movement.
0:16.9	I'm your host Mike Powell, and this week I want to start things off with a big thank you for those of you that reached out to me.
0:23.4	I know that I've been oversharing lately, and it hasn't been the most positive news, and I appreciate the hell out of all of you for checking in on me.
0:31.2	I mean, honestly, there are so many people out there who are going through way worse shit than I can possibly imagine, and my heart goes out to
0:38.2	them. And I really feel terrible for those people who appear to have things figured out in life,
0:43.3	but are secretly struggling inside. If that's you, I don't know what you're going through,
0:48.2	but I do know that more people love you than you could possibly know, and it's never too late to
0:53.3	find some help while you

1:20.3	downtown. But believe it or not, you know what there's more of in Seattle? Dungeoness and Rock
1:25.8	Crab, living in the water down the street by my
1:28.3	house, and they aren't looking for handouts. They're waiting to be caught by my wife, my buddy,
1:32.9	and I, and we're all over it. We got crab pots last week, and we started crabbing, and it's so
1:38.6	easy. You paddle out on a paddleboard, drop your pots, drink some best day beers, and a few
