Raibu Katayama | The Bomb Hole Episode 199
Raibu Katayama always prefers a huge air over anything else; and if you've seen his riding you'd know that. In an era where competitive snowboarding is known to make most viewers a little dizzy, Raibu is bringing back impeccable style and undeniable flavor. We're talking tweaks, we're talking pokes, we're talking slow McTwists and absolutely massive methods. Having recently switched to more of a back country focus, we can't help but root for him and watch with our jaws on the floor. All this and more on this week's episode of The Bomb Hole!
