We covered 43 Day in honor of Ken Block, recapped the Natural Selection finals, and dove into what it feels like to snowboard at the ripe age of 40. In Scotty Steven's Bomb Hole studio debut, we broke down the creativity that goes into is trick selection and the evolution that has taken place behind those tricks.

David Benedek | The Bomb Hole Episode 187

With Robot Food claiming it's fame as creators of some of the most iconic and timeless video projects in all of snowboarding, we felt so lucky to have David Benedek in studio this week to provide us with an inside scoop. He's innovative, stylish and definitely scared (or at least he used to be). We talk about the origins of the cheese wedge, bonus features, and many of David's more recent adventures in design. Lastly, arguably and most importantly, we all learn about what sort of CGI technology Mack Dawg and Robot Food used in their films on this week's episode of The Bomb Hole!Follow David BenedekFollow Chris, Java & SILKChris GrenierJavier FernándezSILKShow Notes:Robot Food's Afterbang, Lame, Afterlame, and their DVD bonus featuresMike Hatchett's Bomb HolePierre Wikberg91 Words for Snow by Blank Paper StudioIn Short videoTrevor Graves' Bomb HoleJamie Lynn"Current State: Snowboarding" bookTrevor Andrew's Bomb HoleFor all things Bomb HoleWebsite | https://thebombhole.com/Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/thebombhole/YouTube:  @TheBombHole Listen on Apple Podcast | https://apple.co/3UEm0l5Listen on Spotify | https://sptfy.com/BombHoleSpotifyThis episode is sponsored byBubs NaturalsAutumn Headwear Use code "BOMBHOLE"Turtlebox AudioIkon PassPub BeerSpecial thank you to our Patreon Members for making our show possible!

Group Chat #10 with Nils Mindnich, Griffin Siebert & Stevie Bell

After setting a new record for most people in studio for our last episode of Group Chat, we decided to set another record for the least amount of people in studio. But worry not, the banter seems to flow well regardless. We gathered Nils Mindnich, fresh off of Natural Selection, and Griffin Siebert to discuss all things Natural Selection, Bomb Hole Cup training, and finally decide who is the better climber. We take calls from Jody Wachniak, Treyson Allen, and Jill Perkins to discuss the judging and broadcasting of Natural Selection, what goes in to building Bomb Hole Cup, and an upcoming mini-pipe event at Woodward Park City. Lastly, we bring Stevie Bell in studio to talk about the crew he's apart of: Technically Doing It, and discuss the importance of getting more people of color on hill.

Group Chat #9 with Austin Smith, Stan Leveille, Melissa Riitano & Alex Pashley

In this very special episode of Bomb Hole: Group Chat we set a new record with the most people in studio. And according to our team of scientists, the more people, the more banter.

Scotty Lago | The Bomb Hole Episode 183

Once battling on snowboarding's center stage, Scotty Lago fought tooth and nail to stay in competition with some of snowboarding's heaviest of hitters. He's dueled against Shaun White in the half-pipe. He's rode gnarly back-country lines with Travis Rice and Nicholas Müller. He's filmed A-grade video parts and even made his was onto Jimmy Kimmel. Beside's starting his own board company, Lago Boards, he's turned himself from "retired" snowboarder into full time out-doorsman.
