I have to put this pic in here, I will never forget this day, me and my boys riding powder.
I took this photo while they took the time to reflect on our afternoon.
I will always remember that moment, glad I could capture it.
For me, this is what snowboarding is about. That one shot justifies all the time, effort and dollars we put into being here.
Thanks Fischer, thanks Wildman, a moment in time I will always have.

 

cool photo man thats looks so nice sounds like a epic day
only like 3 tracks thats the best thing picking your own line in fresh powder

Yeah that was my favourite pic of yours.
There was an awesome article in a magazine in the early 90’s. I think it was Transworld Snowboarding.
It was called… “The Art of Freeriding”. It was a great piece.
If anyone knows of it or where i could get a copy it would be awesome. It was all about snowboarding, what it means and how you feel.

When i see that pic, it reminds me of that article.
One of the last lines of it was….. “No wonder why we all stop to check our tracks after a powder run. Those ‘S’ turns are our soul, laid out in plain view”

On a different tangent, how did Fishmunga and Wildman get their names?

I had this at one time, when I had a subscription.
And I dont keep many magazines, but I would have kept this one, I think.
If I run into it, I’ll get in touch at the least I can photo copy the pages and mail it to you.
All my stuff is in storage right now, but I may have it out in a few months.

Thanks,  Also just tried those jumps earlier for the first time and man do they kick hard. Wanted to capture that feeling of shooting off the lip and getting launched sky high.

First pic is stellar .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).  Great capture, normaly I would suggest straightening the horizon a little but it really adds to the feel of the shot.

Great job
