And we start again with a little teaser to this years series with Fraser McDougall, talking about a few dates and some stuff. I’ve changed it up a bit this year, not as heavy on the chalk animations but a few shots from last year and a couple other little things.

I managed to make it to wake nationals again this year, I must be getting somewhere near 10 by now but who’s counting. This year we shot an airtime TV ep in conjunction with NZwakeboard.com
The video has been taken offline.

I covered the NZ wakeboard nationals again this year creating a couple of videos including this one for NZwakeboard.com showcasing the event including all different divisions and the atmosphere that surrounds the event.

I headed to Wellington for the past few days to check out the Semi-permanent design conference, but somehow action sports is always still around, the skate scene up there is really cool, I got to the latest release party for Seconds magazine right off the plane and a couple of days later we stumbled across the Zon of the lines skate comp, Pedro Day was killing it with this frontside flip, I figured I may as well snap a couple of frames and Dave Read, aka blue shirt and fisheye in this shot was keen on posting it into the Manual write up.

This was my entry for the CHILL Film Feast short film competition over the weekend, I had been planning on making this while filming and working out how much awesome footage wouldn’t make the actual edits, then was asked to put something into the Film Feast. I didn’t know it was a competition, I hadn’t even started making it till after the entries closed and even claim in the middle of it some of my shots aren’t any good.

The last two CHILL series videos are up and online, Black Diamond Big Mountain from Temple Basin.
& the snowboard edit covering the whole series. Awesome shreading overall and really good to hang out with all the crew.

As the CHILL Series continued through the mountains we made it to Craigieburn for a whole lot more skiing. Cam McD’s ollie to pillow is one of the interesting lines I’ve seen any skier take, let alone in a comp.

The comp started this year up at Mt Olympus with Tom Brownlee getting in front of the camera with more than a few ridiculous statements and some of the better skiing I’ve seen.

A month or so back I ended up with the World Heli Challenge shoot for the Snow Show, it was one of the more amazing opportunities I’ve ended up with.

As part of my high fives coverage, I’d flick the switch between photo and video a bit to help get some shots for the NZsnowboard edit that Liam Hall who I work with on Film Inc Media made with shots of his own and Kaleb from the Cardrona Media House as well as my little titles. We were all pretty stoked on how the video turned out then it turns up on Transworld’s best of the web, which counts as pretty much as far as you can get with a snowboard vid on the web.
