On Saturday, April 6th, snowboarding's favorite podcast's most favorite event The Bomb Hole Cup takes the field at Brighton. For the past three years, the contest has been a get together of epic levels with multiple sporting disciplines open to all.
Of course, the flames of competition will be stoked and scores will be settled between both friends and rivals as riders take on The Bomb Hole Cup banked slalom.
Brighton just released a glimpse of the course via drone. So if you're trying to visualize your turns in advance of the race, here's your beta.
Banked slaloms are the great equalizer of snowboarding contests. The berms take no prisoners; all that's left at the end of a run is the time on the clock, an acknowledgement—or harsh reminder—of one's prowess through the turns.
There are arguably no finer sportsmen and women than The Bomb Hole crew, so the results of this race will go down in infamy—until next year.
For both the banked slalom and the park showdown, the list of competitors is the stuff of snowboarding royalty both from the Wasatch and beyond. Griffin Siebert, Phil Hansen, Madison Blackley, Kaleah Opal Driscoll, Nils Mindnich, the Fava Brothers, Josh Dirksen, Joey B., and many more will be at Brighton.
Side bets and smelling salts are welcome at The Bomb Hole Cup. (We can't verify that, but we feel pretty sure of it.)
