"The South"

Pieter Reichwein and Toby Nowland-Forman just released the first teaser for their second full length movie titled "The South". Being Christchurch locals they decided to contribute $2 from every DVD sale towards getting the local trails on the Port Hills back up and running.

The DVD features many of NZs top riders such as Cam Cole, Justin Leov and Kelly Mcgarry along with a host of other local talent (including me).  From what I've seen of it its not just DH Freeriding and DJing, theres some BANGER trailriding in there along with Instructional videos and also their first full length movie "Sketchy Lines" (2008).

So go over to Spokes online shop and order yourself a copy!

Cya Whistler

So I'm back home now working on all the tricks I didn't want to try straight to the rock hard dirt jumps in Whistler and so far so good.  Back to Whistler though, I ended up leaving at the perfect time as I felt I had done everything I had gone there to do and was just starting to get the DJ bug back again after having the DH bug for most of my trip.

I would have a video of my trip made by now but my computer decided it didn't want to work for me (it actually crashed when I was doing some editing) so you'll have to make do with and edit that Ben Tyas put together.  Its a sweet edit showing a good chunk of the kiwi boys that were in Whistler doing what they do best.

I've also got afew photos from Whistler floating around so enjoy.
