Whether you’re a content creator or just love great storytelling, you won’t want to miss this one.

What was it really like to build Forum under original owner Raul Reis Jr.—and how did everything change after Burton acquired the brand?

Bryan Knox, Dan McNamara, Rob Meyers, and Jared Eberhardt share an inside look at Forum's evolution, from the culture and vision that defined the Four Star era under Raul Reis Jr. to the challenges, opportunities, and realities of the Burton transition.

It's an honest conversation about the people, the business, and the decisions that shaped one of snowboarding's most influential brands.

If you've ever wanted the real story behind Forum, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

The best stories never make the final cut.

Join John, Jackson, Jake Blauvelt, and Ikka Bacstrom as they take you behind the scenes of filming Forum movies. From epic powder days and relentless travel to unexpected challenges, unforgettable sessions, and the moments that shaped the film, this episode dives into the adventures, friendships, and chaos that come with chasing snow around the world.

Season 1, Episode 6: "Video Gangs" is a full-speed throwback and a real-time reality check on the crews that built snowboard video culture. Rob Mathis, Eddie Wall, Laurie Heskari, and Joni Malmi break down the missions, the madness, and the loyalty behind the lens-how crews formed, how parts got made, and why style and identity mattered as much as the riding.

If you've ever lived for video premieres, rewound parts until the tape wore out, or wondered what it took to represent a crew, this one delivers. Watch now-then tell us: what crew defined your era?

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.
