TLDR : Answer Summary
It is not possible to extend a 'border bounce visa' as it is not an official term; however, if you entered Thailand with a visa-exempt stamp, you can extend your stay for an additional 30 days at the local immigration office for a fee of 1900 baht. It's important to have the TM30 form ready as it may be required for the extension process.

You can, but you'll need the TM30. At least one friend had to show it, and I had to run around to get it, so please have it with you.

No such thing as a border bounce visa. You can extend the free stamp for 30 days at your specific immigration office for 1900 baht

, be careful to say that, because not all "free stamp" is eligible for tourism extension.

He's from the US, so he's eligible.

If you entered Thailand on visa-exempt (ผ.30 on your entry stamp), yes, you can apply for 30 days tourism extension at your local immigration office.
