A man of the people! That's the phrase we would use to describe this week's guest on Let's Talk Snowboarding! Brad Compton grew up in Davenport, Washington and during these years he would make the trip to our all of our local mountains not yet knowing what a huge impact he would have on the Snowboarding Community of North Idaho and Eastern Washington. He made his way to Spokane, through Post Falls and now resides in Rathdrum. The man has been all over our region, whether it be as a lineman for Avista or working with the Ski Shack Team and traveling to many of the ski swaps across the Pacific Northwest. Brad Compton is a straight legend, and we get into everything from his recent backcountry Heli trip in Alaska to what he has built with the Ski Shack Team fundraising and providing gear and knowledge of Snowboarding to countless youth groups here in our community! Sitting down and chatting with Brad was an absolute honor! We appreciate each and every one of the listeners for tuning and hope you enjoy the episode!

Kya Alderman is a rising star in the Snowboarding world! She had humble beginnings, growing up near Naples, Idaho and now residing in Bonners Ferry. Kya is a humble, hardworking, dedicated snowboarder through and through. Her progression in the sport has been other worldly. Last season she took home the Doug E Fresh top spot in her age group and the top time in the competition! She continues to stand atop Bank Slalom podiums throughout the region. She is a top rider for the Snowboard Northwest Team at Schweitzer and a regular up on the mountain! You may see her blazing past you on a groomer or slashing some pow on a gnarly run. Kya was such a homie to take the time and sit down with us for this heater of an episode! Thank you to Kya and to all the listeners for tuning in this week!
