    I wish I had photos of myself. Somehow whenever I go boardin with my friends, nobody wants to take a run or two off to man the camera. The only pic I have is this one.


    Ooooh, what a day!

    I know it's not carving and I know it's not even an action shot, but still that is one of my favorite pictures.
    Soft bootin it since winter of 1998 (or sometime close)
    Hard bootin it since December 2006.

    My buddy, who took the picture, was on groom. It only took me about 20 minutes to get the 20 feet that I was away from the groom/hardpack. Totally worth it though.

    These two pics were taken by Richard (Switzerland). He was part of Joerg’s (Pureboarding) group in April. Yea, I got lucky, two really high-quality shots he took.

    Here's mine, thanks to Scott Firestone!! These were taken at Park City at the 06 WTC.



    It is the same as my avatar.

    Here is a toe side from the same run. Is two pictures overdoing it??

    You guys ALL look terrific. I'm not posting any shots because I've never managed to look that cool on a hardboot board. My hat's off to you!
