i want one so much. i love sleds.
had a sick day yesterday (sunday) with ben, phil, anica and marc over at rotherford creek. took the sled out and went to this old gnarly colvert. rusty. crooked. bent. snowing hard. and geting towed in by a sled..... sooo much fun.

ben steped up first and got some bangers down and got some film. anica went next and hit it a few times and then slipped out on the big crooked lump in the middle of it and butt checked it. it had to hurt but anica is a trooper. my turn. kinda scared. big rusty colvert... i dont wanna eat shit on it so took it easy. but got a 50 front 3 out which was fun.
then phils go..... he kiled it. front blunt to reg and fakie and was going for the 270 out.... footie to come.

me. tail press

i took the sled out for a ride and ohhh my god is that thing fast. its like a super bike on snow.
started to head down from the colvert with phil riding the sled and ben on the back and me on my board holding onto the tow rope. asked phil to take it easy so we get on the track and he floors it with me holding on the back and he towed me up to 60 down a narrow creek path. sooo much fun was laughing the whole way and trying to give ben high 5's on the back of the sled.
one of the most fun days of my life right there. chillin with the crew snowboarding and riding sleds with a picnic and snowing the whole time.

skate battle

had a sweet night the other night. went for a super skechy skate in the parkade in pemberton. had to sweep it cus it is covered in grit from the roads. sooo sketchy cus if you hit a stone you bail so hard.
game of skate was sweet i managed to make it to the semi's which i was stoked with cus i suck at flat ground tricks.
this is brent with a switch flip (i think) maybe nollie.

when all the guys got back from winnipeg they brought there friend steve from home with them. he's a good guy and rips on a skate.

after we were dont playin skate we set up the hipy jump and rode that for a while which was sweet.
had a chilled time the other night chilling at the guys house and havin some beers while brent serenaded us with tunes.
i tried to play but its kinda hard not using your middle finger cus its busted but managed to change up the fingers and busted some hendrix.

hit up the bar after we chilled at the house and met up with kate cus she got back from vancouver. was good to catch up with her again and chill at the bar and play some darts.

junk yard jib sesh

crazy day today. stayed up too late last night watching the biggie smalls movie.
snowed 30cm last night so thought we couldent waste the day.

photograph sesh in the back yard and on the rock drops in the front yard.



spend about an hour shaping a box off of our back yard steps thats about 15ft long.
nice little set up with a gap landing. super sketchy run in. only about a foot wide so got to stay straight.

found a work bench and some ply and made a wall ride stall.

back yard bench turned into a rail with tree bonk just after it so gonna try for some crazy tech stuff on that.

a bomb drop thats about a story and a half to a tiny tranny.


and the rocks we have in the front yard are about the same hight with a bigger tranny but about 5 feet to a wall of ice. super gnarly. marc killed it.


had the guys nextdoor dog come over for a chill too. murphy is a sick dog.



got some good sequence shots so i will put them up when i get them.
what a sweet day chilling at the house getting our shred on and having shots done
