Elevation Photos

I’ve been posting a bunch of photos from Red Bull Elevation in Guadalajara, Mexico on Defgrip. I went down there right after my England/France trip and I had such a good time. It was my first trip to Mexico and I was really psyched to get to go to a real Mexican city and really experience their culture, rather than going to Cabo or some place like that. I stayed an additional day with Gary Young, Chad Shack and Harley Hasket. We got to cruise around the city and shoot a bunch of photos. I’ll have a gallery with the city photos up later this week.

Check out the Practice and Qualifying photos.

Wade Lajlar

A few months back I went to my friend and MacNeil team rider, Wade Lajars school while I was filming a day-in-the-life type video with him for the MacNeil site. He’s going to school for welding and his school was pretty incredible to shoot at. So many great colors and textures. Above are just a few photos from the day and if you want to check out the video, you can watch it here.

Old Magazines

David Lang told me about this store just off Broadway on Grandville St. in Vancouver. He said they had a bunch of old magazines and I should check it out. I was expecting to see a few old issues of Rolling Stone, Vogue and basic stuff like that…. But, boy was I blown away. I spent so much time browsing through the boxes and boxes of amazing issues like The Face, i-D, Print, early issues of Wallpaper, etc. The selection was amazing and along with magazines, they had a bunch of random catalogs and stuff like that. I picked up a few copies of The Face and an i-D, but the thing I was most psyched on was a 1974 Eaton’s catalog. For those of you who don’t know, Eaton’s was the Canadian equivalent of Sears and in the early 2000’s was actually bought out by Sears. This catalog is gold and is pretty much a bible of amazing clip art and images for collages and stuff. I’m psyched to do some scanning and mess around a bit.
