With all this talk about spin to win, halfpipe and the overall current state of snowboarding: there’s nobody better to talk to than a park builder. So we got one of the best, Charles Beckinsale, in studio to educate us all on something we likely take for granted. He gives us a deep dive into what makes the perfect jump. He explains the importance of smaller park features. And he drops some facts about the current state of contest snowboarding and the effort the goes into creating these mind blowing set ups. All this and more in an incredibly interesting and unique episode of The Bomb Hole!
