Air Time Podcast

This week on the show we sit down with Lucas Beaufort 🇫🇷🎨 We get into personal growth, carving out your own lane and the pressure of putting yourself in a box as an artist. The rules (and breaking them), Lucas' dreams, snowboarding, skateboarding, and building something bigger than yourself through community. Lucas has worked with some of the biggest brands in the world and accomplished things many artists dream of but we talk honestly about how those opportunities come from insanely hard work, belief, and staying true to your vision. We also dive into his new event The Common Line, creating space for people to connect, create, and belong. A real one. Honest conversation. Lots of perspective. Enjoy this one.

Joe Lax moved west from Saskatchewan over 25 years ago to ride powder and he's never looked back. Based in Pemberton, BC, he's spent decades quietly pioneering serious lines/ technical terrain with a style that reflects deep experience and total commitment to the mountains. Away from the spotlight, Joe brings the same steady focus to his role with BC Wildfire Service as an operations section chief. He stays grounded, driven by a DIY spirit and personal passion rather than ego or acclaim. For Joe, it's always been about the ride. Enjoy the show!
