Thank U Snowboarding - S3 - Ep16 - Neil McNair
from Thank U Snowboarding
I first heard Neils name when some waterproof shirts were quite the accessory, however, with a button phobia, it wasn't something I could go near. Since then, I heard his name quite often, often linked with James Stentifod on backcountry adventures, so I knew he was a rider of some standing.Fast forward a few years, I'm sharing a room with James and Neil at Spriing Break, although our paths didn't really cross, even though we slept in the same room. Upon checking out I found out that Neil, or Wags, as lots of people call him, had settled the bill. That was pretty awesome, and a sign of Wags' generous nature, so when it looked like we'd both be in Tignes at the same time, I jumped at the chance to get him on.He had more to do with the set up of British Instructors being able to teach around the world, is a highly respected coach and guide, and has a deep knowledge and love of snowboarding, so it was a joy to hear his story and we cover a lot of ground in this episode.If you want to know more about the Thank U Snowboarding Community Camp in March 26, there are details here: https://thankusnowboarding.wixsite.com/spring2026 or you can email us at [email protected] you are interested in merch, we have T's and Hoodies in all sizes, hit us up at [email protected] are supported by the rad crew at The Snowboard Asylum: https://www.snowboard-asylum.com/We are also looked after by Dan and Lizzie at Burton https://www.burton.com/gb/en I'd like to take a moment to introduce FourTwenTea, which is delicious tea embibed with CBD oil, which I have been drinking over this summer, just to help keep my brain from overheating.
