Whistler Alpine Shoot

This past weekend I was up at the peak of Whistler shooting all day. Here are a few photos from the shoot as well as one crash video.

Alex Pro & Ian Morrison Stills

2010-09-03T12:39:00.000-07:00

Earlier in the week I went shooting with Alex and Ian just to have some fun... clearly this was not serious (see last photo). The first day was POURING rain and we had to call it after an hour and a half, and just ended up going to the Pembi 4x4 area with Alex. Second day we finished our shooting, but the trail was so mucky near the end we couldn't shoot everything we wanted. This led to some pretty random shots as the video progresses. Check out some stills from the shoot:

Being so used to shooting with Ian lately, I've gotten used to framing my shots for someone staying super low, and scrubbing jumps. Took a few tries to frame things up for Alex when he starting boosting jumps.

Massive gap if you know where this is... unreal:

Ian and I just wrapped up shooting a new video, which consists of only the most stylish tables, whips, and scrubs (REAL scrubs). Here is one of the amazing photos we snapped as well tonight:

Crankworx - The Latter Half

2010-08-16T19:04:00.000-07:00

On Saturday night the 'big event' of Crankworx took place - the slopestyle. It was an OK show, had a large turnout as always, but wasn't overly impressive to me this year.

THE event of Crankworx for me however, was hands down the Canadian Open race. I expected 'Hecklefest' to be big this year, but was definitely surprised by how many people turned out. From beer bongs to streakers, Hecklefest had it all. At points during the race, the crowd was more intent on giving the finger to people going up the lift, teasing foreign families with rentals, or trying to convince Brett Tippie to hit the beer bong, that they nearly missed the rider coming down at the time. I don't think I've ever seen a cooler, and more hilarious crowd at any event than what I saw at Hecklefest. Hands down, the best event of all, and I can't wait till 2011.

Unfortunately Cody broke a couple of fingers this week, so filming seems to be out of the question for a bit. However, Jack and I are working on two videos coming up, the first of which should be up next week at some point.

Crankworx First Days

2010-08-08T20:44:00.001-07:00

Crankworx is back in town, and so are the boys from overseas. Cody and Jack, who I have filmed with before, are racing this week, and we'll also be going out to shoot once things settle down here. This year was the first year that I was able to watch the dual slalom, and it did not disappoint. One of the better events I've seen in some time.

The Garbanzo DH went down today and Jack had a wicked run, ending up in 7th. Curtis Keene was also flying today and came in 4th. Hopefully once I'm back in the city in September I'll be able to get some shooting done with Keene before he heads down south for the winter.

After a torrential downpour and hailstorm last Saturday, Paul Stevens and I went up to Pemberton to shoot a few photos for his last AIRprentice blog. Have a look on NSMB at some of the shots we got:

Pre-Crankworx

2010-08-04T13:12:00.000-07:00

Ian Morrison went up the hill early this morning to help test out, and break in the new Dual Slalom track for Crankworx. We did a bit of shooting for the upcoming Crankworx video feature. The course is quite exciting to watch this year with an awesome 180 berm, large gap, grade 8/moguls/dirt boobs, and a wicked step down at the end.

Road Trip

2010-07-27T18:18:00.000-07:00

For the past few weeks I have taken a break from shooting. I took a road trip with my girlfriend down to the states for two weeks, and visited San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, the Grand Canyon, and Las Vegas.

Keep an eye out for updates on new videos. Crankworx is coming up soon and lots of the overseas riders will be back in town to film with as well.

In the meantime, enjoy a few photos from the U.S.A.

Race Training: Ian Morrison & Tyler Allison

Finally, it's here! It took only one huge day to film this video. However I have been on the road for the past week so it's taken a bit of time to get everything edited and finished off. So without further adieu, I present Ian Morrison and Tyler Allison at their best:

Behind the Scenes: Ian and Tyler Shoot

2010-07-02T21:44:00.000-07:00

Wednesday, June 30^th - 6:30 am. POW Gloves teammates Ian Morrison and Tyler Allison, Team Manager Chad Hendren, and myself met in day lot four. I was leaving for a trip on Friday for two weeks, which meant we only had one day to shoot this video. The folks at Whistler/Blackcomb were kind enough to give us drive-up access to the hill so we could get up before the general public to shoot. By 6:50 we had driven all our equipment up the hill, and had started to set up for our first major shot: the cable cam. Bob Allison, owner of the Core Gym and Climbing Wall, and also Tyler’s dad, was generous enough to bring up some extra equipment and help out immensely with our cable cam set up.

Equipment ready to go:

Bob up in the trees:

Myself strapped up:

I have known Ian since he was thirteen when we worked together at the Whistler Golf Course. He’s always been a good rider, but in the past year he has developed one of the most unique styles on a mountain bike, which is extremely fun to watch. Not to mention he can scrub like no one else.

Ian going puddle drifting:

This year I have shot with a lot of Whistler’s young riders - Ian at nineteen, Nick Geddes at seventeen, and now Tyler Allison at eighteen. I had never actually seen Tyler ride until we starting shooting this video, but I knew he was fast from his killer race results. Tyler was very impressive to watch for the first time, and was able to keep real tight with Ian the entire time while shooting, sometimes getting almost too close!

In total we had a thirteen-hour day, from 6:30 am to 7:30 pm when we finally wrapped it up. It was tough to cram everything into just one day of shooting, but we made it work and came out with some stellar footage. Keep an eye out for this edit which will be finished soon! In the meantime, check out a couple of behind the scenes clips from Wednesday:
