​Listen Now: Rory Silva on the Powell Movement Podcast

Rory Silva was a child prodigy and one of Powell Movement host Mike Powell’s favorites. Silva was a talented kid with a really unique style and was always thinking about progressing the sport. What he didn’t have was the assertiveness, ambition, and guidance to become a household name in skiing. But he still had a huge impact on the skiers of his era. On the podcast the two talk about weed, video parts gone wrong, diabetes, and a whole lot more. Want more Powell Movement? Check out all the episodes here.
