Hangin' with Forest Bailey

Forest Bailey. An amazing shredder, an amazing skater, but more than anything, an amazing person. After the festivities of the US Open and Last Call at Loon, I got to hang with Forest for a couple days. And so he brought me to his house. As soon as I walked onto his porch, it became my favorite house. Tucked away from the Vermont roads, Forest's crib rests right next to a beautiful roaring river that entertains them with a continuous meditative sound. His house, to say the least, reminds me of my grandparents place; which is good! With the smell of old wood and incense, and the hundreds of little things tucked in the various corners of the rooms, I fell in love with the place. If your in Vermont and you can find this little secret spot of heaven, then your in for a treat.

OoooEssss Open

Shred, party, and become reunited with all your shredstick buddies; that's what the US Open was all about here at good ol' VT. After 2 days of hard rain, the sun, the girls, and the slushy snow came out and gave us snowboarders a whole week of good times. The pipe was going off, slopestyle was going off, even the simpsons open after party went off from what i remember. with good friends and good vibes all around, shooting the US Open wasn't too hard. I was able to sneak my way into getting a credential, so here are some of the shots i took during the pipe. Big shout out to Randall Stacy for making it all the way to semis! Chyea buddy.

Eamon is the redhead one. Hes the next jon boham, and plans everything out before anything. That said, their awesome brothers, and I wouldn't change a damn thing about em. Every now and then we take some photos together and get some bangers; Richard Avedon wanna-be photos. check-em out.

Eh?

If I were to go anywhere while the Olympics were playing, it would probably be Canada. Great people, great beer, great riding, great vibes, just great everything. If you've ever been to Canada, especially whistler, then you'll know how I feel. I got invited to go to this amazing place with a great friend of mine, Annie Davis, and her two friends from school. So, in mid-Feb. i hopped on a plane and 4 buses so i could go ride one of the sickest mountains in the world and have a beer with a couple canadian friends while watching the Olympics. On the way there we stopped in Seattle for a night to check out the famous public market. Heres a  peek of some photos i took on the trip. enjoyy
