Description

Saying Fabiola da Silva is the best, and most underappreciated female athlete of our time is a bold statement…but it’s one that I fully believe.  I can’t think of another case in sport where a woman was so dominant in her field,  that the sport’s organizing body decided to cancel the woman’s event and have the women (Fabiola) compete against the men...And Fabiola did not disappoint, standing on the podium with her peers at some of the biggest events in the world.  Fabiola da Silva Show Notes: 1:30:  Life at Cedar Point Amusement Park and Cross Fit 8:00:  Sao Paolo, kickboxing, and meeting Chris Edwards and Arlo 14:00:  Coming to America at 16, the other girls and X-Games 18:30:  Stanley: Get 30% off site wide with the code powell30 Evo:  The best online experience in action sports with retail to back it up 20:15: Winning X and travel 25:00:  Getting second at X, sponsors, and financial advisers 28:00:  Gender, the Fabiola rule, and a bad year in 2003 36:00:  Winning Silver at Latin X Games (against the men) and the end of X  38:45:  Spy Optic:  Get 20% off on their site Spyoptic.com using the code TPM20 10 Barrel Brewery:  Buy their beers, they support action sports more than anyone 39:45:  X continued, landing the double, and Rollerblade 42:30:  Surviving and then finding CrossFit  56:40:  Inappropriate Questions with Cesar Mora
