Off Course is back this week with a fantastic show. Hosted by Dan Edwards, each Friday he gives you a deep look into the world of golf and equipment in a way unlike any other podcast has done before. Today Rick Reimers joins the conversation to talk about Finn Scooters and Rick’s rather legendary experience in the golf industry.
It wouldn’t be Off Course without some tangents, but Dan and Rick discuss everything from from the creation of Finn and the original ideas to his history with Sun Mountain which is incredibly fascinating. This show has a lot going on and is one you will not want to miss as Rick Reimers goes Off Course.
Episode 120 is here and Dan and Rick discuss the following topics.
History of Rick and Sun Mountain
Creation of Finn and original ideas
Ease of use through the app
Having fun and playing fast with Finn
What’s to come
And so much more

Myrtle trip just a few days away this is absolutely on my radar to try. Can’t wait to listen.
Going to save this one for my Sunday road trip to the GOAT, excited to learn a bit more about Finn
I have a 3 hrs drive this morning so excited to listen. Wish Finn meant Finland 😉

#FinnSquad Part 2: The electric motorcycle boogaloo?!?!
I’m here for it!!!
YES! Cannot wait!
Karsten Creek actually has Finn’s which is AWESOME.
Sounds dangerous.
Crazy to hear about the early stand bags. I just take for granted that they’ve always been around. But obviously that’s not the case
Was trying to figure out who Rick sounded like and it finally hit me. He’s Nick Saban
Enjoyed this show and as a Finn user, his passion is there. It parallels a bit on the Brand Story we did a couple of weeks back and dives in even deeper.
F yes!!! I can’t wait to start this!
Is there golf courses that actually allow you to bring these on their property. I’ve never seen them anywhere. Looks kinda cool.
Going to grab a listen, on the wish list of golf activities
Another great listen [USER=2320]@Canadan[/USER]. Need to see what courses around me have them to try and go check them out.
Excited for this as always. Can’t wait to try one of these.
Fun listen. What a back story..
I want a finn…

bring back some great memories?
wish there were a course near me where I could go play a round with one of these. They just look so fun.

YES!!!. That round of golf is still among the very top golf experiences I have had and I think that is partly due to the Finn.
Man I need to give one of these a try!
kinda sad it didn’t work out with the weather to give these a go last time at True Blue.
still the only place I’ve seen them.
I freaking LOVE Finns. Can’t wait to listen to this!
They one thing I would ask of Finn. Slightly higher speeds.. close to 20
Love to know if there are any Finn scooters anywhere in Michigan? [USER=2320]@Canadan[/USER] can you get the inside scoop?
I really need to try a Finn Scooter! Sounds like a blast!!

Not a single course in Charlotte has Finn, Pinehurst/Southern Pines is the closest.
Just fired this one up on my road trip
Great listen! Didn’t realize a few courses near me that have some available.
Fantastic listen! Was pretty awesome to hear they’ve already had three and four wheel options made and tested. Then went to the two wheel because it was just so much better. You really can’t beat the enjoyment of a Finn!
Lots of talk of these on the Granddaddy reunion group text. Expect to see photographic evidence by the end of the week.
This might be my favorite Off Course episode thus far (I have only listened to like the last 5, so I need to catch up ?), but Rick’s story is incredible

Yea, really incredible. From the driving range operations, to needing to produce 1000 bags a week for Ping, definitely needed to be quick on his feet and just be ready / have the attitude to Get’er done
Interesting guy for sure
I’ve realized I’ve been not great at listening on the way to something, like work, and then not commenting.
But also thought it was interesting that he liked the original battery system/design better/cooler but swapped it for something else because it was easier for the consumer.
