If you ask some folks, I am a little slow of the uptake. That may be why today's stoke is not exactly the newest clip you will ever see this website feature. Nevertheless I think it is among the best. Why? Because it has the power to act as a portal into a world of stoke that I think everyone can relate with. How do you follow your passion, your stoke, when that thing they call "real life" keeps getting in the road? Fitz Cahall and Bryan Smith provide a little inspiration (well a lot to be fair, 22 episodes worth!)

If your were lucky enough to scope out the The Season 1, then you can probably guess what Vol. 2 is all about. Magical videography, coupled with amazing story-telling. In the lads own words, "This year we picked five new athletes each with their own unique storyline. An amputee climber sets his sights on becoming whole again by returning to Yosemite to realize a lifelong dream. A conservationist and angler searches for a fabled ghost run of wild steelhead on one of California’s most troubled rivers. One of the world’s best boulderers struggles to balance her career as a boulderer with raising her daughter. From a burned forest, a vision of an incredible mountain bike trail emerges from the ashes into reality. In the wake of achieving an unthinkable goal, a ski mountaineer returns to the peak where he first met failure."

Enjoy the below and then dive right into the first 19 episodes already online. I think you will like.

Have an ace weekend wherever you are. I will be rocking it at the Royal Geographical Society's Explore weekend in London and fingers crossed a spot of paddling! Stoked!
