espn.com pre-season gallery

Will Wesson sliding a handrail at Alta, Utah

The lovely people over at espn.com/action had me do a pre-season jib gallery back in late October working with some of the younger crew out here in Utah.  From lift terminal rails at Alta to backflip jumps on snowmaking piles at Deer Valley the pre-season mini-shred is on.  It was a ton of fun to go out and make some small features of no real consequence look cool.  It’s great to work in simply a fun environment, free of the gnar factor sometimes.  Add into the fact that my lighting was pretty simple in these, usually just a few Nikon SB80 DX’s, an Alien Bees 800 and a Elinchrom Ranger RX AS Speed with the ol A-Head.  Of course, add in a pile of Pocket Wizard Flex TT5′s

The photo above was real simple, just one Elinchrom Ranger RX AS Speed with a Pocket Wizard Flex TT5 shot with a Nikon D3 and a Nikon 16mm f2.8 fisheye

    I really like the simplicity of the above photo, the lighting and the contrast really work well together. Also your artsy shot on the espn site with the snow making machine with all the lens flares is pretty cool/different.

    Discount card is the way. Wingpointe, Bonnivelle, both Mountain Dell courses, some others but those are the good ones.

    SLC discount card. Pay $75 ($50 w/usga membership) and you get 20% off of golf/range balls for a year.

    I guess you haven't looked then. Most every course in the SLC area that is decent or good is under $50, even with a cart.

    Oh yah. It said I'd get throttled down if I went over 3gb next month. Supposedly not until then though.
