    When Juliette Pelchat was a kid she grew up wanting to be on The Bomb Hole… which is pretty crazy because that was just a few years ago. Raised in the mountains by the legendary JF Pelchat, Juliette quickly found snowboarding and excelled. She competed for Team Canada in this past Olympics and is slowly going further and further in the back country. She started all girls skate camp at her local park, lost thousands of dollars buying a truck, is working on an art book, getting her pilots license and so much more.

She’s battled concussions, had a short lived rap career (pending a comeback), and has a Finnish nickname for everybody. Learn all about Henna on this week’s episode of The Bomb Hole!
