In an all new and incredibly action packed episode of Bomb Hole: Group Chat the gang explores some of snowboarding's most complex and intricate topics. We consult with our product expert Joey Fava, I mean J-Stone, about how to pick the right board for you. Seth Huot gives us the much needed inside information on what went down with Volcom. We get a call from Lucas Magoon who just lost part of his finger; it doesn't get more entertaining than that.

If we're having a conversation about DIY and initiative it's only fair to mention this week's guest: Ben Poechman. Ben grew up riding on a farm. He built his own features and was forced to look at snowboarding through a unique and creative lens. He continued to use this creative lens as he creative his own videos, filming himself using a selfie stick and a tripod. Today his creativity branches out into all aspects of his life. He's a painter, a stone carver, and a ripping snowboarder.

In this week’s installment of Group Chat Chris and Silk sit down with Sam Taxwood, Knut Eliassen and Kelsey Boyer to dissect some of snowboarding’s hot topics. We call Tommy Gemse mid street trip to get some in the field updates. We finally get to the bottom of why rails are sticky sometimes. We dream for a resurgence in boardercross. And most importantly, we make fun of Knut’s head.

With all this talk about spin to win, halfpipe and the overall current state of snowboarding: there’s nobody better to talk to than a park builder. So we got one of the best, Charles Beckinsale, in studio to educate us all on something we likely take for granted. He gives us a deep dive into what makes the perfect jump. He explains the importance of smaller park features. And he drops some facts about the current state of contest snowboarding and the effort the goes into creating these mind blowing set ups.

In an incredibly interesting and insightful episode of The Bomb Hole, we were blessed to be joined by Colleen Quigley. Her passion for snowboarding and community have helped her pave a unique path through the industry. Navigating the switch from rider to marketing poured gasoline on the fire for Colleen. Figurative gasoline that is, because Colleen now works in marketing over at Patagonia where she passionately helps lead the charge in protecting our planet. She’s a mother, an industry leader, and contains endless knowledge about the culture and community we all know and love.
