Gary Young tabes on Defgrip

Check out the spot I did with Gary Young about this tabletop shot on Defgrip. I used a toy camera to capture the shot during a BMX Plus photoshoot.

Macneil in town

Kosman office HQ

Harrison Boyce from Macneil in Vancouver stopped by this weekend to ride and shoot photos in San Diego.
Jay and him were in LA for the Nike art show and then hustled around Socal for a few more days before the rains came pouring down.

Shoe’s untied

and soggy?

I was at Vans yesterday for a meeting and they had a wakeboard/wake skate mag laying around.
Cover boy has his shoe untied.
Should he be embarrassed?

Nike LA Art Show

Art, video, bros

I went up to LA on Wednesday with McGoo to an Art Show that Nike put on at some famous theater that they apparently leased for the whole year.
Crazy.

Ryan Villapoto cover for Dirt Rider

4 minutes of roosters

The new Dirt Rider hit the newsstands this week and Ryan Villapoto scored the cover riding the Dirt Rider 450 test bike.
We had about 4 minutes to photograph Ryan up at the Perris track, but we made a little chicken salad out of chicken sh*t.

Super bright out, ungroomed track, and a stock test bike.

Shot on a Canon 1Dsmk2 with an Elinchrom 1100w/s pack at 1/320th of a second. ISO 160. f/14. Yeah, it was sunny.

Thanks to Jesse Zeigler for hooking it up and check the inside for a 2-page interview with Ryan Villapoto about changing up with motocross game from lites to the big bikes.
