Episode 5 continues our story of the Forum 8. Part Two of the Forum 8 picks up right where Episode Five left off, inside the energy, pressure, and pure creativity of the Forum 8. This is the crew that helped define an era: eight riders, eight different styles, one mission: push snowboarding forward and do it their way. Stevie breaks down what it really felt like being in that room (and on that program): the standards, the chaos, the laughs, the late nights, and the moments that turned into legacy.
This episode goes deeper than highlights. It's about the culture behind the clips-how the Forum 8 moved as a unit, how each personality shaped the brand, and what it took to earn your place when the spotlight was on. If you care about the real history of snowboarding-not the polished version-this one's for you.
