Austen Sweetin | The Bomb Hole Episode 241

I don't think we've ever seen anymore more happy to go snowboarding than Austen Sweetin. His positivity is truly infectious. I mean even just watching him snowboard puts a smile on our faces. To be honest it's hard to keep our eyes off of him. He charges everything at full speed and refuses to fall. In this conversation we take a deep dive into Sweetin's formative time on Forum Snowboards and how being a professional snowboarder was so much different back then. We talk about his time filming for Absinthe Films and how teaming up with Lucey sparked a whole new genre of snowboarding and film-making for the two of them. Learn all about Austen Sweetin and the secret to his positivity on this week's episode of The Bomb Hole!
