#5 - Dan Pape: the longboarding visionary

I wont lie, Dan Pape is one of my favourite humans. His enthusiasm, his ideas, his non stop ADHD means conversations fly around and you can get lost down rabbit holes.  He was suppose to be my podcast number one, I pitched my podcast idea with Dan last year when I was planning to go to Japan. I caught up with Dan, talked all day, had a blast exploring Yokohama with him, and then realised I had not recorded anything! Doh!  My headline says Dan is a visionary, or is he a polymath? Or maybe more an inventor? Longboarding's idea guy? In a way he is a skateboarding genius. He lives for ideas, it is like a type of madness for him, they flow from his brain, and he has a need to make them a reality. The difference between Dan and 99% of other skateboarders is execution. Dan lives the life, he works to make his visions come true and he has been doing this since the birth of downhill. I know that is a contentious statement, because in theory downhill has been around since the start of modern skateboarding in the 70's. For me, the epicentre of downhill and the birth of modern downhill skateboarding racing is in Canada in the late 90's and early 2000's.  Interviewing Dan is like reaching back to those days and hearing all the stories. So many of them are connected to today's longboarding.  Take the time to listen to this one. It is long, but it is a lot of fun. These are the conversations I love to do.
