Jeremy McGrath headed to Australia to race a few rounds of the Australian Supercross series. At round five in Sydney Australia McGrath had an awesome race finishing second behind points leader Chad Reed.. The king of Supercross showed that he still has the speed to run up front and battle with the best. Jeremy will be heading to Genoa, Italy for his next Supercross race on 11/27-11/29.
Jeremy has been wearing the new Klutch goggle and absolutely loves it! Check the link below to see the racing action.
With the surf up the North Shore is full of energy. The contest is on and the surf spots are filled with surfers, even the road on Kam Hwy is congested with traffic as everyone is hurrying to get to their destination. We had a day filled with filming Torry Meister and Clay Marzo during their heats at the Reef Pro as well as shooting Dean Morrison in our small garage turned studio. You have to be here to experience it and to fully understand how chaotic this place can be when the surf is up. We had another successful day of getting the job done. Here are some quick pics of our day on Wed.

A lot of prep work goes into each shoot. These are some of the neccesities.
Cameras-lights-ready!

Being behind a camera and all eyes on you can be nerve racking. Sometimes you need to take the edge off. Only when your 21 of course!

Part of Kaona's school was seeing the behind the scene stuff. Kanoa shot the images from Dean behind the scene shoot. Here is his signature to his work. Grade A+ Good job Kanoa!
Clay after his exciting heat win. Clay loves to win but what Clay really loves, is to surf.
In physics, for every positive force there is a negitive force. Clay won and dominated that heat. To Clay this the negative force that was caused by the positive force. Regardless, Mike from Surfline was there hear what Clay had to say about the heat
A long day of schooling can wipe you out. Kanoa lights out!
Here are some photos of mine and Jussi’s first day on the hill this season. We are at Breckenridge and it’s pretty fun up here! Small triple jump line and few rails..
Gonna head up to NW next week and hit up mt. baker and whistler.
After setting up all day and into the night on Sunday and Monday, Tuesday was “Showtime”! Here are some images of our set up process as well as our 1st two athletes Mike Losness and Torrey Meister. Enjoy!

This past weekend was Mammoth Mountains true opening weekend. We all know that they had a surprise opening back in October, but this was the opening weekend that was locked down in the schedule months ago. The night we got up there it had snowed a couple inches, so things were looking good. The top of the mountain was open, so you could take full top to bottom runs. Throughout the runs there was all types of step ups, hips, rock bonks, pole taps, then a mini park down forest trail with jibs and a mini double line of jumps. On saturday night there was one of the most inspiring art shows I have ever been to called “I am Snowboarding”. This was a tribute art show to our fallen friend Jeffy Anderson, who pasted away many years ago, but has never and will never be forgotten. The energy and passion that each piece put out was incredible. Billy Anderson and his mother Jane opened up the show by speaking about Jeffy, and soon after the tears were wiped away everyone enjoyed some wine, all the amazing art, and just the fact that everyone was celebrating Jeffy. All in all it was an amazing weekend filled with the cries of joy and laughter. A great kickoff to the season. I want to thank everyone who was a part of the “I am Snowboarding” show and Mammoth for a memorable weekend.

Yesterday Spy met up with Hawaiian Bombshell Winner Hannah to enjoy some delicious ahi in Honolulu & congratulate her in person…Spy presented Hannah with a congratulatory plaque for being chosen to participate in the up coming Spy photo shoot.
Hannah is set to start shooting this Saturday at Log Cabins along with Spy surfers, Alana Blanchard and Erika Steiner.
After dropping Hannah off <so she could rock out at The Fray concert in Honolulu>, the sun decided to do some amazing things on the way out to the North Shore….
The Spy crew made it safe. Matt, Brent there 30 mins before me. We all met up at the Log Cabins house, where we will be shooting our 2010 Spring Summer surf marketing needs. Check out some quick pics and vids we’ve collected in our route to the Logs house.
