You'd be hard pressed to find a snowboarder who wants it more than Madison Blackley. Coming off an incredible performance in Natural Selection, Madison graces us with some insight into how she deals with pressure. A self-proclaimed "expert," Madison talks about some of the challenges trying to make a living as a snowboarder and how the "dark ages" of women's snowboarding challenged women across the industry.

In what some are saying is the most banter filled Group Chat ever released, we've reached our highest highs and our lowest lows. Chris and SILK are joined in studio by comedian extraordinaire Stan Leveille, real life cowboy Sam Taxwood, and "professional" photographer Bob Plumb. We dissect the latest and greatest clips such as the halfpipe airbag and the world's first grind on a bridge. Stan brings his own mystery segment. To add a bit of credibility to the mix we also caught up with Marcus Kleveland. We couldn't produce a better show even if we tried.
