Blake Paul | The Bomb Hole Episode 23

North Face rider retreats, losing close friends A Rob and OJO, Vans crew stories, riding powder with no hat and the evolution of a hilarious nick name. Join us as we sit down with the Prince of the Backcountry, Blake Paul AKA B Proddy. From a short stint in Vermont to spending his formative years in Jackson Hole B Proddy was taken under the wing of some heavy hitter’s who helped shape him into the powerful powder rider/jumper that he is today. He talks about his first international snowboarding trip where he lost a dear friend Arron Robinson and the effect’s this had on his life, being that young and basically alone after A-Rob passed is a heavy situation to deal with, one that forces you to grow up quick. Crack a fresh beverage or pour your morning joe and get comfortable as we delve into the mind of Blake Paul on this week’s episode of The Bomb Hole.

Hell ya! Can we get Tommy Gesme in hur?

[@TheBombHole]

he is dream guest for sure!!

[@janc8678]

Dude has the best style in the game right now.

[@rossr1942]

I remember watching Manifest and telling my friend Garrett it made me want to shred. He told me it made him want to LIVE. I still hold that sentiment close to my heart. Keep that fire burning Blake. Love you guys, thanks for everything you do.

[@TheBombHole]

Love that!!!

[@alextlopez_]

Always love hearing stories and learning more about my favorite riders!

[@TheBombHole]

hell yes!

[@arjanvijselaar534]

What an awesome young dude. Hearing his story about the loss of his friend Aaron was deep. I’ve lost a lot of friends along the way and I can relate to wanting to live life to make those people proud. As per usual, another epic episode.

[@TheBombHole]

🙏🏻❤️

[@howdyitsdavid]

Im 44. I go back to the halcyon 90s. Blake's found his way into my top5 of all time. His style is unassailable. So stoked on this episode!!

[@StokedAlaskaAKR]

well said well said

[@TheBombHole]

that rules!!

[@fortunesfinest1770]

Valle Nevado is my favorite place in earth! Lived down there 06-07. Worked in the park crew. Some of the best times & best shredding of my life. I highly recommend anyone to take the trip. Loving the bomb hole so far guys!!! Keep me coming 🇺🇸 🔥 🔥 🔥 🇨🇱

[@TheBombHole]

hell yea!! thanks!

[@yukiotokosama]

Blake has been one of my favs for quite some time. His SFD and Landline parts are all time. I was lucky to be at Baldface when Blake and the TNF crew were up there filming Pulp a few seasons back and it was awesome getting to hang out with those guys and girls. Also got to fondle that pro model Vans boot in the boot locker and ended up getting a pair the next season.

[@TheBombHole]

Nice!!!

[@TheAharhar]

Can't get enough of this shit, seriously well done

[@nikolauslopez732]

As Blake said when we as people have to sit in the car line and we know. We do know here in colorado if you don't wake up in time man your in what we call the I-70 transplant jam. As young and partiers we definitely sit in that line and hate ourselves. But hell we know that it's all worth making some turns and chuck roasting. And all these podcasts are def bringing in the why we know it worth it! Thank you boys keep it up!

[@TheBombHole]

Nice!!! love it!

[@_barnac]

sick episode! Also just received my new 32 TM-3 ! ive always been the type to buy the cheapest laced boots i could find since ive never really noticed a difference but after listening to so many episodes i can tell chris is a man of the people so if his names on it they must be worth the extra bisc! cant wait for snow to try them cheers boy!

[@TheBombHole]

Much appreciated!!! Thanks for supporting! That means a lot

[@taylorcaldwell8277]

To answer the video excitement question. Yeah, it still happens. I love this one section of Kevin Backstrom in the shredbots film RELAPSE. I get so excited to watch him nail those side hits each time.

[@patrickryan3277]

That part in RELAPSE gets me beyond stoked.

[@taylorcaldwell8277]

[@jordanshoemaker6985]

Dude has wicked style!

[@TheBombHole]

True!

[@kylekelley8384]

I know this is super random, but it would be rad if you could put together an episode with Dave England from Jackass! Snowboarding legend.

[@TheBombHole]

We agree!

[@smerriam1]

lmao jim rooks is running for office in teton country right now

[@TheBombHole]

Yes!!!

[@ProPunk109]

Yeaaaaaah. I'm digging this cast. These things have sure come a long way. From the no name podcast, to the FNRad, to the snowboard project, to Kerns and Manboys and now this one which bumps (can't say it) em all. Legit hosts and amazing guests. Keep it real guys! Keep up the amazing job. I will throw this comment out for this one however though....why no discussion of helmet wearing? Guy dies right in front of you.....and no mention of wearing a helmet? No question by you guys? I mean I know it's harder than ever to make a buck or a biscuit in this game..... And I know helmets bring down the steeze and kids are probably worried about that. But I think it would have been a PSA nonetheless. Just a thought.

[@TheBombHole]

thats a good point. we willl keep it in mind!

[@fattybourgeois1014]

His Iphone edit is awesome

[@TheBombHole]

yea!

[@HoldenBarth]

[@mrsir1872]

Not sure if anyone else feels this way, but i dont appreciate the short intro spoiler/teaser clip they always do right at the beginning before the logo intro. Just start it with the bombhole logo intro right off the bat and forget the intro clip. we dont need a spoiler clip to warm us up or grab us in. you have our attention, please stop ruining the show later on for us by doing this. Thank you.

[@TheBombHole]

thanks for the input!
