TPM Episode 344: Bobby Meeks, Pro Snowboarder

The Powell Movement Action Sports Podcast

Bobby Meeks makes life look easy, but his early life was anything but that. While he’s known for being one of the nicest guys everyone wants to be around, he was the troublemaking kid before he re-set his life by moving in with his aunt and uncle. From there, Bobby never lost his skateboarding roots as he went on to dive and snowboard professionally. On the podcast, we talk about his childhood, skate, and snow culture, his pro career, High Cascade, Nike, DC, and more. Forum Snowboard revivalist and legend Peter Line asks the Inappropriate Questions.
