Lars was awesome enough to come to Japan to shred with us. As you can see he travels light yet stylish.

T-ROY

2011-04-30T01:51:00.000-07:00

So i was in Japan a while ago when the tragic Tsunami and Earthquake hit the country. My good friend T-roy was getting prepared for the nuclear meltdown by building a bunker.. Here is his bunker mask

Luck for him he did not heed to make his bunker and got to drop us off at the airport. Yes he is a legend.

JAPAN 2011

2011-03-22T19:18:00.001-07:00

So I was lucky enough to get back to Japan this summer for another 10 days of riding with the crew. It was Shane, Lars, Darren and his 2 mate that I had the pleasure of shredding with. As always Japan delivered the snow and we took full advantage of it. Thanks again to our good friends T-Roy and Joel for looking after us.

The mandatory Sapporo Maccas stop.

Order up Joelly..

This was Shane and my room for the 10 days. so sick

Of course the Barn had Captain Morgans Private Stock...So good

The other drink we all love from the barn is a Strawberry daiquiri....delicious

Another highlight of the trip was seeing T-Roy in his underwear every morning....

Joel Graham Breakfast of champions...

The View from out front of the boys place...pretty Epic

Sunny day shred with the crew...Yotei looking good in the background

Roy bowling up a storm on Wii

Roy putting on his smoking attire to go outside..Little red smoking Roy

Chairlift ride for all the boys...

This is a super fun run...look at the tracks. nothing but good times.

We rode some out of bounds areas which we had to hike out of. Worth every step

After a long day riding you need a big cold beer

Or a Beer TOWER...Yeah Hanazono...

Shane ready to rumble

I can not remember who won but it was piss funny to watch

Shane can not go anywhere without making friends and wearing funny hats

I think Lars might have had a little to much to drink????

We went to dinner with our good friends from the Barn and this came out near the end. Yep its Horse Sashimi... its was a little weird and very salty..

We got a Rusutsu thursday shred day in with the crew. Yep it was epic. here we are getting ready to leave

It was a big crew...18 to be exact..

Darren with some last minute adjustments before the epic day

Roy was a little tired after shredding...he loves a nap

We got in a day of catboarding which awesome fun. We did have to sign our lives away first though

Our ride for the day

My Back country mates...Nice head cams boys

Lunch stop break..Cam our guide getting the coffee ready

This was our last day shredding and Niseko was nice and gave us a bluebird day

I was super stoked Lars made the trip over..fuck he can shred

Darren is so business he was always working...

Shane is in japan so much he is pretty much a local. Well he gets locals discounts at least

2 pretty stoked men

Lars & Yotei....enough said

2011-03-04T23:27:00.000-08:00

So we had our annual softball game last weekend and this year it was heavy metal themed. It was DEATH METAL vs BLACK METAL. As usual it was an epic afternoon of old unfit people trying to play sport and drinking. Always a good mix. My team which was HEAVY METAL took the trophy this year. GO TEAM

BOWL A RAMA

2011-02-21T20:03:00.000-08:00

So apparently there was a skate comp in Bondi over the weekend. I was there but did not really see much skateboarding. Either way a bloody good time was had by all. Sorry for the lack of photos but i had to many drinks in my hands to take photos.

This is how the comp day started at 10am...No wonder i had no idea who actually won the comp

Everyone love Bondi Beach Burrito

Especially Cuzza

I bumped into this guy at the pub. Only Snake Pit Tattoo I have ever seen

Blair and i got back to the Hotel to find Party guy Kerry Fisher passed out after a big day. He did have to judge all day so for this a judge Kerry a 10/10 for being a good dude.

LA......

2010-12-26T14:24:00.000-08:00

So i had a quick 3 night stop over in LA between Colorado and Japan. It worked out awesome as my good friend Bomber was going to be in town also. So we jammed in as much as we could in the short time I was there.

Good dude picking me up from the airport

and taking me straight to heaven

Yep....Amazing

Our romantic hotel for 2

As it turned out Bomber had his snow gear so we headed up to Bear for the day. One of the funnest resorts I have ever ridden for sure. Just like a skate park on snow

Awesome jumps and a very long rail.

Chilly in a bread bowl....yes please

Bomber agrees

Of course there was a demo day on

2 pretty stoked dudes

After riding it was back to LA to meet up with some friends and have some drinks. Marc Baker was there to hang out and keep me entertained.

This is Marc ride. I forget its name but i comes with a good story of the guy he bought it from.

The legend Andreas now lives in LA so I got to brink beers with him which is always awesome

We walked out of the bar and there was an amazing Mexi truck out the front. Burritos for everyone.

This is one of my favorite breakfasts in LA.. Thanks Swingers
We got to skate this awesome mini in the back of the Brooklyn Projects store

Andreas shredding the mini...

Michaela came out for dinner...She really likes swingers food. She had a burrito and a pancake. Good bless her.

Tatiana almost got it

Everyone was throwing up SF gang signs.. Bomber put up the Chelsea gang sign..

I think Tammy lives in the US again she spends so much time there. Awesome to see her.

MJ is now a crazy LA biker...dont mess with her

Good to DC you at LAX

2010-12-21T14:52:00.000-08:00

On my departure from the US I had the pleasure of meeting up with the DC powerhouse at LAX for a quick hang before they got weird in LA and at the POW POW

Alex Hawkins so ready to get his pow pow on

Even in another country we still all got the memo

I am pretty sure after I left the boys they replaced these coffees and waters for nothing but beers and good times. Awesome to see you lads

After riding we decided to have a few drinks to celebrate the rad day as it was not supposed to snow that night so we could have a late start. Fair to say we got very loooose. I had to be put in a cab home and woke up to 17cms of fresh snow. it was a rough day riding today but it was all worth it

Red Hands????

Camilla and Beth pretty happy/drunk

Go away Stevo

Of course I bump into Nat Perry

Yeah Camilla

Creepy Linc going in for the tit grab

And again Linc going for it

Smell my shoe lace

Okay so this photo is AMAZING in so many ways. First Linc is taking a piss in the snow with his pant and boxers around his ankle. Secondly the next night when linc realizes he has lost his camera we are going through my photos to see if we can track any photos of mine that might show when he had his camera last. If you look on the ground to the right you will see exactly where Lincs camera ended up. Not rad that he lost his camera but I am pretty stoked i have the evidence of where it ended up.
