Camperventure

Half way through the CHILL Series I made an interesting choice to stop sleeping and go back onto the road to keep filming when I needed to spend a lot of time editing, the opportunity had come up to chase Will J and Abby down to Tekapo with some new snow, the trip started well, the first turns were deep and the sun was shining, as we walked to the Ohau ridge the wind started to really blow and didn’t stop, we made the most of the next few days but didn’t get everything we needed so a few days back in Christchurch then off to Wanaka to finish off this ep.

Hutt Early Season Snow Show

So as the snow has fallen and we are back in the mountains the TV show Airtime I have been working on over summer has become Snow Show, same idea, same time, same channel so for my first ep of the season, Liam Hall and myself caught up with a few buddies for a game of “Shred” at Mt Hutt. If you don’t know what “Shred” is just watch as Milu tries to explain it. Always fun to be riding with the crew and I’ve got a fair amount more snow content coming along soon.

Alice in Snowpark

So I went to Snowpark for the day shot a commercial, shot a bunch of jump footage and went night ridding but in-between the day and night it was super sweet light so me and Benny took a real long lap hiking a bunch of stuff and then I had an idea how to edit it and we got this, if we had a shot of his board it would tie in way better cos it has an original alice on it, super cool and the film is from 1903.

2 sides of a coin

With it almost mid winter in 2011 there is obviously a lack in snowboard media, with soo much talk of this being the year that every kid on the mountain has a gopro and yet NZsnowboard.com are running a few of my shots from back in ’09. I was playing around with coloured flashes and a spot that has both flat run in and landing so it’s a bit different but check the full article for what we did back in the day.

The Temple

Without a doubt one of the greatest places I have been and getting the chance to claim it off as some sort of work Temple Basin is even better, filming for The Clubbies got to shred with Benny all night and all day. There’s a lot more to this story but until the webisodes…

The kid is one of my best friends and the reason I feel terrible today, he turned 21 at midnight this morning but that wasn’t when the party stopped. The kid can shread on a snowboard with a crazy ability so I gave him a place to showcase what he has done and what we have done together, definitely one of my favorite people to shoot with as he always gets a shot, like always. http://bencomber.com
