022_Skate Across America Push Relay Team | Paul Kent, Andy Andras, Rick Stubblefield, Miles Kipper

About this episode

The episode features the 2023 Push Relay team discussing their experiences during their cross-country skateboarding trip.

The skaters from the 2023 Push Relay team came on the podcast to talk about their trip; the many things they learned, challenges they faced, and places they saw. It was a delight to see this crew reminisce about a life-changing experience they all shared in together. The team was made up of four skaters: Andy Andras, Rick Stubblefield, Paul Kent, and Miles Kipper. The team was formed by Jack Smith. A long time cross-country skateboarding veteran, Jack is no stranger to the open road and crossing the United States on a skateboard. He had first completed a cross country ride in 1976, and has done others since. The most recent being the crew chief for these guys in their 2023 attempt. Thanks to the team for coming on the show and thanks to Jack for igniting the spark so many years ago.
