Open!!!



SNOWBOARDING!!?? 

Yes, it is that time again. 

Trollhaugen, WI and Wild Mountain, MN both opened up yesterday to begin the season of 2011-2012! whoo hoo! I am excited. 

I started out the year with Austin Young and Dave Parker at Troll yesterday. For the set-up there were a few rails, boxes, and jumps spread out in the deepest snow.  You can take almost a full run, but it's a bit of a hike at the time... Well worth it to those looking to get their first turns in! 



























SKATEBOARDING!!?? 





After snow, time to skate. We went to the St. Croix skate park to get a few more lines in for the day.
Austin Ollie's a trash can.



Little Garret Mckenzie was at the park. He wasn't able to go shred snow today, but he did get a few epic scooter tricks in on the concrete.



Dre. Ollie's for days.




The reason we went skating.. dave parker. Trying to get a few more shots before the park is closed down for the winter. Here dave is boosting some pretty decent airs into the bowl at St. Croix.



Backside 360 into the bowl!! jeez.. getting trickery with it.



I forgot this guy's name again.. I'm forgetful. :/
Hope he finds this blog and can check out some shots!

So yah, Snow and Skate all in the same day here in the Midwest. Not a bad deal.

Make sure to check out the post below! SBN Issue #5 is up and running! It is a photo story of Midwest Snowboarding last year, take a look. :)

thanks!

S.B.N. Issue #4.





Here it is! S.B.N. Issue #4.
Pete Harvieux lands the cover this year. Poppin smooth Ollie's durring Viktor Simco's 'Ollie's for Alzheimer's'.

This took me a while to complete.. so it feels good finally putting last season all down in one spot for people to see. There were a lot of good times and neat places to show, it was hard to cram it all in one issue.

Thanks for reading! If you could please pass this on to every midwest snowboarder you know! Lets get a few photographers together again and re-start STUCK mag! Well, it's a thought anyways.

Almost here. 

Really excited to announce that S.B.N. Issue #4 will be out for you to enjoy soon. I'm going through a few more people to get the final edit perfect. So far.. all I can say is this is my best work yet. I'm real
happy about the way this has turned out thus far. 

Stay tuned!

Memories.

I miss these days. I guess they aren't to far away now, but it's been too long since I had a good shoot. Can't wait for winter to come.

The Farm, Wisconsin.


LeRoy Olhieser.
Grampa with his buck. He shot it while bow hunting, his passion in life. 


One of the wasp nests I came across. huge. 
It was pretty high in the tree, 
possibly meaning a lot of snow this year? Hoping so. 




I'm not sure which is right, the bottom needs to still be 8 degrees cooler. :) 


It's pretty land out there in Wisconsin. One of the smaller swamps. 


The Camp Site. 


'buckshot'
the pup lays and waits for LeRoy to come back from hunting every night, he won't even budge, just kicks it till grampa comes back to let him inside. dog days.. hard life. 


just sitting around waiting.. been there before. 



Good times being a lumber jack in the fall. 
I also have a few shots of the Farm on www.mymangosarespicy.blogspot.com
Cell phone foto love.

thank for looking.

RP's Skate Day.


Paige Koenhen with first drop for this guy. 

I joined my friend Ryan Paul today at his lil skate demo, skate day he held in Elliot Park, Minneapolis. 
It was so rad!!! There was a pretty good turn out of kids who wanted to learn how to skate on this beautiful day. 

I really can't think of a better way to spend time than giving it to other people. Today made me think a lot about what I do in the summer and all the things that could be done in a summer. Kids need people to look up to, who better than guys like Ryan Paul? I don't know a ton of people that will spend their time and money to teach kids they've never met how to skate. So, thank you RP for your example! Making an impact in the lives of many. 



RP and Aaron Becker! 


RP brought his grill out this afternoon. Making sure no one goes home hungry. 


Along with teaching some of the better skaters gave a little demo of just how much fun skating can be. 





This guy got a new hat today! keep those ears warm this winter buddy! 


Rolling around. Pretty legit introduction to a skate board. 


Hot Dogs! 


The crew! What an awesome turn out. 

Thanks to everyone who came out! I wish I was better with names and could put a few down... my bad. None the less, rad group of guys that can skate very well came and gave their day to stoke out the neighborhood kids. I appreciate it!
