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. She's helped so many women hit their first street spots and is in it for all of the right reasons. Her passion shines through every second of this week's episode of The Bomb Hole!

In this episode of The Bomb Hole Group Chat we've gathered Pat Moore, Mike Rav, Reid Smith and Seth Huot in studio to discuss all things snowboarding. We FaceTime Zeb Powell to get the inside scoop on his recent signing with Jordan and call Tommy Gesme to hear about 686's Atlas 2 and even more importantly: the retaining wall he's currently building. Mike Rav gives us a glimpse into his creative process and Reid Smith returns with everybody's favorite topic: old heads. In Pat Moore's Bomb Hole debut he shares some insight into the importance of backcountry safety. All this and more on this week's episode of Group Chat!

Phil Hansen | The Bomb Hole Episode 231
It's hard enough being a professional snowboarder: so imagine how hard it is for Phil Hanse to be a professional snowboarder AND skateboarder. He's a true double threat. A literal ATV. Did he go through a fedora phase? Sure. But he was bullied relentlessly and is now a better person because of it. In all seriousness, Phil Hansen is one of the best to do it and is overflowing with passion. Learn all about Phil being a child prodigy, his hardships, and everything in between on this week's episode of The Bomb Hole!
