JUST FOR CHEW......

Chatting to Jon Chew today on the chair bout the shots of the last post, he requested to see a frame in particular. Hope this was the one you were talking about chew?!?!?

ACRO BAG

So a little while ago Rude Boys and District, two shops here in town hooked up with Acro Bag for private session of hucking themselves into a huge airbag.  Shtchea.com has an edit of the up on their site if you are a fan of moving images, otherwise scroll on down and take a look.......

DEJU VU

Once again out and about pushing shutters and popping flashes, only this was take two of the same spot as three or four nights ago. This time Mr. Steve-O was available to throw down some tricks, the spot was so much fun even after my gear froze up and batteries went dead the boys still got greasy.....

Steve-o : BS Blunt 270 out

Still Winter....

Winter is still in full effect here with no sign of stopping. I have been pretty lazy in the pixel capturing department but...... Over the last few days everyone has been keeping busy throwing their bodies down some awesome features in and around the bow valley.

I have be fortunate enough to be invited to point my lens at some of these spots, here's a taste......




more to come stay tuned

Showdown Slideshow.

Ok, so I havent been on here for a while because I have been super busy trying to get enough shots to make into a 3-5 min slideshow for the shtchea.com Photography Showdown. So after a week or absolutely crazy weather I finally got some shots, I put it all together into the slideshow below.

Unfortunately it wasn't good enough to even place..... I got 4th (which still landed me a sick prize pack). So now after all the frost bit fingers and sleepless nights I can look back and say I had a really fun week. So here it is!!!

Also you can check out some behind the scenes of some of the shoots on shtchea.com
Leave me a comment and tell me what you think......... be honest!!
Any riders that wanted shots hit me up and I'll see what I can do.....

Who knew a chain link fence could be so fun....

So........

I've been sitting on these pixels for a while now because I used the first shot in a entry to a photog comp, organised by my mates over at www.shtchea.com

I just got the news that I made it into the top 6, which is awesome!!

Anyway enough words peep the pics.......

Just as a footnote, It was -25 C.

Jib Jam Jump Off

Let's set the scene, 1 minivan, 5 guys, 7 snowboards, 4 cameras, 1 case of beer and some good spirits!!

On the weekend just past Gui, Steve-o and Chew got an invite to come and compete in an indoor Jib comp in Edmonton. So we all squeeze into my van and make the trip up north, although the road to Edmonton is boring being in the van with this particular group of characters definitely makes for an interesting drive mission.

This is just a sneak peak into the 2 day trip. A full video edit of the fun and games will appear on shtchea real soon, Enjoy.

Im getting excited for winter.

So today i got some great news, my visa was approved so I get to stay in Canada for another winter at least. This got me excited, so I started just flipping through all my shots from well, ever actually.

I found a couple of recent shots that hadn't yet graced my little blog, So here they are enjoy!

'Back Alley' FS Smith

At the start of the month I was introduced to Cailska Reagh and got the opportunity to watch him shred the Canmore skate park. So we met up recently in the alley way behind Rude Boys, this kid is 'jaw dropping' on a skateboard. There was no real plan for the afternoon, just skate and shoot which is second nature for Cail.

Aside from being an exceptional skater, Cail is aspiring artist and quite the character to say the least. In between throwing himself down a few stair sets or off a ledge or three he would pull a sharpie from his pocket to throw up some of his signature art on the closest wall. Cail + Skateboard = ShtChea!!!

Thanks Cail.

You can peep his art here.

Box of inspiration!!

So I recieved a whole bunch of gear like 2 months back and Marcel was so kind as to come out and throw himself around for an hour or two so that I could use the new gear. Thanks Marcel!!!





So yeh I'm pretty stoked with how they turned out, some of them..... actually most of them have some motion blur which I'm bummed about. Live and learn I suppose, I can't wait to drag some of these local shredders out to Calgary and throw them down some stairs and see what we can create. Keep an eye out, don't be scared to leave a comment and tell me what you think.
