The Bomb Hole

These days Chris Roberts spends most of his time asking other people about themselves so we thought we would switch things up. We learned about all his secrets and got all the skeletons out of the closet. Besides hosting The Nine Club, he's actually a pretty good skater with a long career of impressive manual tricks that left filmers furious. Lear all about Chris's life, career, and plans for the future on this week's episode of The Bomb Hole!

Sometimes the job that lets you snowboard the most isn’t being a professional snowboarder. Chris Coulter got to live that life for years filming with Kingpin Productions and Absinthe Films before transitioning to big mountain riding which ultimately led him to his dream job: guiding. We explore filming street footage in the middle of summer with no snow to dangerous back country scenarios and everything in between. Learn all about Chris Coulter in this week’s episode of The Bomb Hole!

Not many people can step away from snowboarding entirely, return, and then make their way to the Olympics. Well, Jake Pates is one of them ones. After battling concussions and their severe side effects he stepped away. After a few years he made his return and not thing we know he’s representing the USA in The Olympics. Since then he’s been galavanting the globe on private jets, replying to some of the thirstiest DMs we’ve ever heard, and crushing every contest that comes his way. Learn all about Jake’s journey and where he’s headed on this week’s episode of The Bomb Hole!
