TPM Episode 275: Trent Bush, Snowboard Visionary

Trent Bush was born into a family of technical outerwear designers at a time when snowboarding didn't exist. Trent grew up learning how to build outerwear and skateboarding. He was a grom before groms existed, and when Wave Rave opened its doors in Boulder, Trent hung out there daily until they hired him and his brother. From there, they grew with the sport of snowboarding, eventually creating the iconic Twist and Analog brands and running design for brands like Burton, Mountain Hardware, Fenix, Fjallraven, Saga, Black Diamond, and more. It's a fun walk through snowboard history with an outerwear visionary
