Skier and Kinesiologist Robyn : Kindred Ramblers Skis Featuring Custom Vetruvian Man Artwork

Thanks to local skier Robyn Smalley, who gave us some time on a day off from the clinic to chat with us about her custom skis. Robyn comes from a ski family, and truly loves the sport. In her years as a student Robyn sacrificed many a powder day teaching kids on the bunny hill or at home studying anatomy and physiology. Being an instructor shows such a deep love of the sport, because while they do ski a lot, instructors also log many hours wiping snotty noses in front of the hot chocolate machine. Next time you hand your child over to an instructor on a pow day, make sure you show your appreciation! Robyn has been a registered Kinesiologist for nearly a decade, so now she can ski for herself! Appropriately, skiing combines movement, reflexes, balance and breathing fresh air in nature. It’s just the best! It is so good for our overall physical and mental health – and so many people are looking for safe ways to live a healthy active lifestyle right now. Of course sports like skiing can also lead to aches and pains, and even injuries. When they aren't skiing, Kinesiologists like Robyn assist folks in staying strong to maintain their physical movement potential, and in recovering from injuries (ski related or not!) If the New Year has you thinking about optimizing your physical health or maintaining your ski muscles, consider talking to a Kinesiologist. If you are local, you can even talk to Robyn at Active Living Physiotherapy in Campbell River - link to website below. We know that not everyone has access to skiing right now, and we feel for people whose local resorts are included in lockdowns. We hope that you are finding other ways to safely recreate outdoors when possible. Thanks again to Ivan from Visual Inclination for creating these awesome videos.

Ever wondered what it really takes to keep a sailboat running and ready for adventure? In this video, I break down our regular liveaboard expenses - from memberships, fuel, and insurance to marina life - plus the big-ticket upgrades and repairs that have kept us cruising, like a new alternator, starter motor, anchor chain, and even sails. I’ll share how these costs add up over time, what surprised us the most, and a few lessons we’ve learned along the way. Whether you’re planning to live aboard or just curious about the behind-the-scenes of sailing life, this one’s for you. Is this more or less than you expected? Tell me below 👇
