In Episode 10 of Behind The Craft, we sit down with Travis (LSFODIRTY) for a raw, unfiltered conversation about drifting, action sports, creativity, and the realities that shape who we become.

From BMX, dirt bikes, and RC drifting to building cars, shooting motorsport media, and raising the next generation around the culture — this episode dives deep into the moments that changed everything. We talk injuries, fear, adrenaline, music choice in edits, media access at events, and why most creatives learn by doing it themselves.

This isn’t just about drifting — it’s about growing up in extreme sports, adapting when life forces change, and finding new ways to chase passion without losing yourself.

In this episode of Behind The Craft, Austin sits down with Kayla from Crash Out Images, a fast-rising photographer in the bike and drift community. From shooting her first drift event at Northern Bout to learning photography on the fly, Kayla brings honesty, humor, and chaos to the conversation.

This episode takes a hilarious turn when Kayla explains her philosophy that “bread reveals all.” From favorite loaves to the deeper meaning behind them, she proves you can learn a lot about someone by the bread they like — and somehow ties it all back to photography, community, burnout, and getting through tough seasons.

We dive into:

• Getting into photography quickly and unexpectedly

• Bikes, drifting, and building confidence behind the camera

• Dealing with gear issues, burnout, and winter driving trauma

• The 881 crew and life inside motorsport events

• Mental health, tattoos, caffeine addictions

• And of course… bread

A fun, chaotic, honest episode — exactly what Behind The Craft is all about.

We dig into drifting, engine swaps, burnout, YouTube, family life, and the realities of chasing what you love even when the motivation comes and goes.

Another real, honest conversation about life through cars — the people, the struggle, the stories.

n Episode 6 of Behind The Craft, Rayelin (@rayelin__) sits down to talk about his journey from small-town life in Fernie to becoming a key part of SSS Motorsports.

From future ambitions, real struggles, and hilarious shop stories to the debate of photo vs. video, this episode blends inspiration with raw honesty — exactly what Behind The Craft is about.
