The Art of FLIGHT - Whistler and Vancouver

Last week I was lucky enough to be called up by my buddy Pete Andersen at Red Bull to photograph the Whistler and Vancouver screenings of the new epic snowboarding movie; The Art of FLIGHT. If you love snowboarding, hell... if you love beautiful things, you will love this movie. Visually remarkable, it is like a cross between a National Geographic Doco and a Hollywood action film with a jumbo sized budget. Mix into that a soundtrack that vibrates your entire world, then add a few snowboarders (and pilots!) who are clearly from another planet as they do not obey the laws of physics, and you have... The Art of Flight. Check out the trailer for the movie here, and get yourself a copy of the film that's out now and simply enjoy.

Here are the photos from the Whistler and Vancouver screenings. Cheers, DT

The Red Bull Butter Cup - Whistler

I was lucky enough to be asked by Red Bull to photograph their snowboarding competition; the Red Bull Butter Cup. Inspired by skateboarding, buttering is all about the silky smooth slides over boxes and rails. But nothing stopped the guys and girls from cracking out some big moves off the spine. The first day on the BC leg of this competition was held up in Whistler with the second down at Cypress Mountain. I had the best time covering the comps, coming from a skateboarding background I felt at home in the snowboarding world. So more boarding photos to come in the future! Enjoy :)
