Transworld Snowboarding Magazine AK Cover and Feature

Huge claims. Even with Travis Rice, John Jackson, and Mark Landvik on the trip, photographer Scott Serfas came back from a month shooting in Alaska's remote Tordrillo Range for Rice's forthcoming film, Flight, claiming it like a freshman after his first college kegger. Everything was the "craziest, biggest, sickest, heaviest ever..." The thing is, Serfas ain't no freshman, he's more of a "Frank The Tank" in snowboard media, He's been here for years. He's seen and shot it all and yet we could only scratch our heads at his giddy e-mails, claiming that "this trip was the best snowboarding trip in history." Too bad they couldn't smuggle a writer along on the trip. We were stuck with a secondhand account from our key photographer with a vocabulary limited to just three adjectives: best, biggest, and greatest.

Ransom by Adidas Backcountry Photo Shoot

Recently I spent a few days in the British Columbia backcountry shooting the 2011 fall catalogue for a Ransom shoe collaboration with Adidas Originals. The catalogue will have a large "out there" wilderness crossed with a camping/exploring vibe.

Logistics manager Shin Campos goes over some options with Ransom creator and designer Matt George.

Mary was there to host a behind the scenes piece for Fashion TV. I think she was looking for Starbucks when this shot was taken.

Mary and Matt introduce the concept and location for Fashion TV.

Our base camp during the shoot. No room service provided.

We shot a few pieces in this ice cave. Lucky we where not in there when it all came crashing down 15 minutes later. We would have all died. Honestly.

Update from Chile 2. The making of Brain Farm's movie "Flight".

It was a long month in Chile shooting along side with the Brain Farm Cinema crew searching for pow in the Andes. We started in Farellones, near the ski resort of Valle Nevado. With a way less than average snow pack we decided to fly south to Termas de Chillan. There was more snow but finding good snow was impossible. If it was sunny the snow was wind hammered and if it was decent snow the clouds were too thick to fly. In the end we did get a few gems on the ski hill and one good backcountry jump into deep "hot pow". Lots of highlights from a really fun trip. One that will always stay in my mind is when the helicopter pilot let me shoot the jump from inside the snowboard basket on the outside of the chopper. Defiantly something that would never happen in North America. And it wasn't as scary as you would think.

I was lucky enough to shoot the jump from here. At 1000 feet it was quite the ride.
