Trick: frontside stall
I always love when snowboarders do straight up skateboard tricks. I was real excited to see Tim Eddy do a proper frontside rock on the quarter. Not many dudes were hitting this thing properly; Tim Eddy, Kyle Loppicolo, Joe Sexton..a few others, I forget, that was two weeks ago, ha. The other picture was coincidence. Tim Eddy was pointing to someone behind me saying “lets keep riding” when the event was over. It looks like he was pointing at me and I am a cool guy but I was just phoaching. After 5 years of shooting, writing and doing interviews I still know very few riders and that is by design. I like having the perspective of a fan, not an insider. I hate stories that are like “Bro, my bro’s and I were ripping, look how bitchen I am” always an outsider, like 99% of snowboarders
