Hockey is king

in Canada.Its common to see all foot traffic stopped if team Canada is playing on any TV nearby. This night the intersection was actually blocked due to so many hockey fans blocking the street. Even the petty cab drivers took a sec to watch the game.

The Games were a blast

Sani, Mu, and Fischi were cutting through town on their way back from the interior BC and decided to stop off for the pipe finals. Luckily they sold beer because those guys sat in the stands for about 10 hours before the day was over. Awesome crew for sure!!

While everyone else was at practice

We took the sea kayaks for a spin. Not a bad way to get your mind off the biggest contest in 4 years. Vancouver is so beautiful.

Riding in the rain


A couple days before the big event we went up to Grouse and took some nighttime rain laps. I hadn't ridden at night in years. It brought back alot of fun old days sessions. DC has way more snow than Grouse.

You guys wanna go to dinner?

The other night Jussi, Shaun and I were on our way to dinner and we ran into Heikki and Eero. They joined us. The amount of rotations those guys have done in their life equal about infinity. While the Finns spoke Finnish, Shaun and I usually just looked at each other.

Budman

This is Bud. He's on of the most interesting and awesome dudes I know. Were staying at the same house here in Vancouver. I wanted to test the lighting on a photo idea I had and Bud happened to be sitting the same place. What a handsome SOB.

Whoa Sexton

A couple years ago my brother and I got permission to shoot on this behemoth of a rail im sure you have all seen at the Delta Center in SLC....After a few moves went down on this baby Joe decided he was gonna front board it. After many many tries he cleaned her and almost hit the tree at the bottom. You prolly saw the shot in Down With People. Needless to say, this is most like the heaviest FS board to date.

Later night that night Bryan Fox and Austin Smith handled the rail right next to it. Getting permission leads to good things.This photo ran in TWS or Snowboarder. I cant remember which. Joe's a beast. Photo Justin LHeureux

Skate session?


Here is a photo I just saw from this Swedish photo website that did a post on all the snow in DC. In the foreground is Freedom Plaza. The main skatespot in the city. WTFFFF

Intermission


The days of watching snowboard contests while freezing are over. I'll settle for chandeliers and toasty toes any day, HAHA...between the mens and womens final I got to check out a little suite a friend of mine had. Thanks Devin

Man, Im High

23 ft backside airs are becoming a regular thing. Me getting this shot in focus at 2.8 without a tripod, while shooting 1/50 of a sec isnt.

Anyway. You get the idea. Shaun was going massive
