For the first time in Bomb Hole history "Hot Takes" lasted the entire duration of the show. Ben Bilocq is opinionated. Ben Bilocq is direct. Ben Bilocq speaks his mind and for good reason; with well thought out positions on various topics found within the snowboard community, Ben is paving a clear path towards a future in snowboarding that he believes in. He wants lower lips on to rails. He wants tricks done properly. He wants the raise the bar. That might sound scary, and he might just agree with that sentiment, but he also firmly believes that riders should be adequately compensated for the risks they take. Find out all of Ben's hot takes on this week's episode of The Bomb Hole!

We only know what we see. Growing up as inner city kids on the east coast, Brian and Omar never saw snowboarding in their peripherals. By some odd chance, Brian found snowboarding through some friends and never looked back. After making a short film and claiming he wanted to bring this back to his people, Omar joined the picture. With the idea of "community first" and the thought of showing a new generation of inner city kids the wonders of the out doors, Hoods To Woods was born. Find out what led them here and where they plan to take things in the future on this week's episode of The Bomb Hole!

For this very special episode of Bomb Hole: Group Chat, we got the chance to sit down with the faces behind The Uninvited. We broke down what goes on behind the scenes, the challenges they have, and continue to, face, and what all went into creating the 2024 Uninvited Invitational. I mean a 55 grand cash purse is pretty insane these days so we just needed to know how they made it happen. All this and more on this week's episode of The Bomb Hole: Group Chat!

In this very special episode of The Bomb Hole: Group Chat, we scoured the earth for the very best banter specialists we could find. Unfortunately they were busy so we gathered Todd Richards, Joey Bauer, Eddie Wall & Scotty Stevens and threw them in the booth with Chris and Silk to see what happened. 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. All this and so much more on this week's episode of BombHole Group Chat!

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!

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. All this and more on this week's episode of Group Chat!

We're still not sure why, but Craig and Chris showed up in full hockey gear for this episode. Supposedly, with the puck in deep, Craig McMorris fought tooth and nail in order to pursue his career in snowboarding. With a little bit of luck, and a lot of hard work, Craig has become one of the most well know voices in snowboarding: broadcasting marquee events for years from X-Games to The Olympics. As we've learned, he's more than just a broadcaster. He pride's himself on continuing to film impressive video parts split 50-50 with incredible back country and street clips. He's well rounded, well spoken, and wearing his Oakley Prism lens in studio in this week's episode of The Bomb Hole!
