I made this picture as Pat Moore and I were driving from Jackson Hole to Whistler, 40 hours. The sunset outside was amazing and I was shooting out the window. I glanced over to Pat and just snapped this quick shot, adjusting the camera settings by instinct. Turned out good!
One night we dragged two generators, 10 lights, 10 tripods and 200 meters of cables up a snowy path. It was hard work but we all had a sense of adventure and enjoyed the night. It started snowing at some point and I just walked away from the crew and took this picture. It turned out to be the most memorable image from the whole shoot.
FunFunFun, this is the catch cry in snowboarding the last couple of years. Every company is pushing this. It mostly comes off as quite fake, though. But this shows real fun, just a bunch of dudes snowboarding in nice powder. The only thing that would have made it more fun would be if I was riding too.
A huge backflip in the middle of Minneapolis. Jeremy Jones has been snowboarding in cities for the last 15 years now and is still going hard. It was -20 on this day and I can still feel the tingling in my fingers.
April 5, 2015, first thing in the morning I asked Will Jackways to hike up and hit this little spot right by the lift. Even if we had stopped right after this shot I would have been so happy but we went on to have the best day of the whole season.
We organized a three-day halfpipe shoot at Kitzsteinhorn. It was super cold and around lunchtime on the third day the wind picked up. Ice crystals from inside the pipe flew up into the air and as I was shooting into the sun it made a ring of reflections. It lasted only a minute and I knew I had captured a special moment.
This is an image that I am proud of as it had never been done before and it has not been copied since. I had a plexiglas dome made and put a camera with fisheye lens inside it. Then Markus Keller did a hand plant on it while Arthur Longo did a Fs720 over him.
