Day One - Banked Slalom
The third Bomb Hole Cup is over and we can finally breathe again. What a time though, eh? 450 people signed up for the banked slalom and even more wanted to, and that makes our hearts warm. What also makes our hearts warm is Milosport—the best shop in the country. Big thanks to them for hosting us and all of you at their shop for pre-registration, which popped off alongside their First Look. But back to actual race day, we added a box to the beginning of the banked slalom, just for funsies. All the money is made and lost in the corners anyway. The best historical sports moment of the day came from Jack Stevens and Jeff Richards getting the exact same time in the Industry category down to the thousandth of a second.
Volcom’s 90s Small Air provided a nice break between the main race and the infamous splitboard race. My non-biased potentially biased opinion is that our boy Danny becoming the Volcom Stone mascot could've been the best part of the whole thing. Maybe next year we’ll have a mascot class; start working on your oversized faux fur costumes now.
It’s sad when Day One is over because that means we’re halfway done the weekend but thanks to Red Bull we got to stay in our annual condo up at the mountain and our friends Joe Sexton, Harry Hagan, Danimals, Pete Croasdale, and Darrell Mathes came over to play beer games while Chris slept soundly like the old man he is.
It would be wrong not to acknowledge the timing discrepancies that happened. Apparently some of the timing devices "fell asleep" because it was cold and snowy out. No, we get it. Listen, we hear you. Email me your time if you think you deserve a trophy you didn't get and we'll get some more made. Here are the final results:
Day Two - Park Showdown
Park Showdown included grom class, open class, pro class, and legend class (which we think was a great addition). The national anthem and helicopter flyover right into the Chicago Bulls theme song set the stage for pro class mandatory cab 9s. Nils Mindnich was the first to drop. He said it was the most anxiety he's ever had on a snowboard. Sorry Nils, but the crowd loved it. Chris's inner child was bursting with happiness at the electricity in the air, the excitement from all the spectators, and the genuine camaraderie of the whole community, and that's really what we do it for.
We learned a little bit from last year, and we learned even more for next year. Who knows what year four will bring.............
Thank you all for being patient with us through our parking issues, schedule changes, and just general nonchalance. That’s sort of our way – we see how it could be annoying. We love you anyway. We really love you guys. You have no idea. Thank you ALL for making The Bomb Hole what it is!!!

Bomb Hole Cup 2022 Recap
The first annual Bomb Hole Cup has come to a close and we ran it fast and loose per typical Bomb Hole style. We pulled the thing off and it seemed like everyone had a really great time... but don't take our word for it—see for yourself.
