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!

Ben Bilocq | The Bomb Hole Episode 191

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!

Mike Basich | The Bomb Hole Episode 189

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!

Co-creator of Torment Mag and Superman of the Chevy Suburban, Ian Boll makes his Bomb Hole debut to discuss his role in the creation of Torment and all that transpired before to lead him there. We discuss life on the east coast and even quiz Ian on his knowledge (he does okay, but not great). We dive into what makes film so special and the importance of documenting and telling stories and so much more on this week’s episode of The Bomb Hole!
