Welcome to the secondt episode of THE HAMBIRD MEATGRINDER SHOW. A podcast hosted by snowboarding personalities Andrew Hardingham and Willie McMillon. In this episode we talk with arguably the sport of snowboarding's original artist Mike Parillo. Mike's style has evolved over the years - but his style is unmistakable - and perhaps he above others is synonymous with both snowboard art and the snowboarder as artist. 

 

Starting with the cover art of Volcom's The Garden, Mike quickly progressed to painting board graphics for his sponsor Lib Tech. One board led to a series - and his influence as a fellow snowboarder created more opportunities to create - and ride - and travel. 

And live in different places - like Prague, for many years, and more recently Hawaii, where we caught up with him.
