TPM Episode 352: Nate Holland, Pro Snowboarder, 8X X Games Gold Medalist, 3X Olympian


Listen Later

Nate Holland is a born and bred Idaho boy who grew up in a log cabin and spent his time hunting, fishing, skateboarding, and skiing and then he found snowboarding, and life changed. Nate was hellbent on making it in the halfpipe and big air world of professional snowboarding and racked up 20k in credit card, infuriating his co-signing family. But freestyle was never going to be the route for Nate, and when he pivoted to boardercross, he found success beyond his wildest imagination. On the podcast, we talk about the Palmer, Farmer influence, living in tents, the X-Games, the Olympics, and a lot more. Jimbo Morgan asks the Inappropriate Questions.
