Nate Spitz | High consequence decision making, and finding the path to make Freeride Mountain Biking his job
In this episode, I catch up with Nate Spitz. Nate is one of the most creative and talented mountain bikers in the Sea to Sky and has a lot of wisdom to share.
Originally from New Hampshire on the east coast of the USA, Nate grew up skiing, and when he wasn’t doing that he was riding bikes and learning an impressive bag of tricks.
He now lives and works here in Squamish, sharing his skills and passion through Yoann Barelli’s Into The Gnar coaching company, and also through a multitude of free-ride, filming, and building projects.
We chat about:
- What it is like to build and ride some of the gnarliest features in town.
- How he motivates himself to keep working towards a challenging goal.
- How to get into a flow state more often.
- The importance of play on your bike.
- His latest edit in collaboration with Alistair Spriggs.
- The Hellevator feature build and first ride.
You can join the wild ride by following Nate @ztipsetan on Instagram, @natespitz6583 on YouTube or book in for a coaching session with him at intothegnar.com
Nate would like to offer a special thanks Yoann Barelli for his ongoing support.
