Episode notes

The unofficial commissioner, historian, and encyclopedia of snowboarding, Pat “The Eye" Bridges has documented the sport for almost 27 years starting with E.I. then Snowboarder Mag and now Slush Magazine. In this episode we talk snowboarding journalism, early big air events, the Olympics, snowboard data, corporate companies getting into snowboarding, best tail block and hand plants of all time, Superpark, Jake Burton, and so much more! It’s debatable whether Pat is the man who has seen more go down in snowboarding than any other human but without a doubt he remembers it better then anyone else. This week on The Bomb Hole we sit down with snowboardings encyclopedia and listen to him speak on the sport as seen through “The Eye”.
