Final Sessions and Sunset Shoot

Is it really over? Wow, it seems like just yesterday we were trucking rails up the mountain..... But every summer, camp eventually comes to an end, and just like that, here we are.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm ready to ditch the ski boots for a while and go surfing, but wow, it sure an EPIC summer up there!

All the new terrain made for some great new features and lines, and with the increased numbers, we got to bring in some new coaches to the Momentum family. I'd just like to say a huge thanks to all of our coaches, diggers, valley staff, and most of all...... the CAMPERS!! You guys make this one of the best jobs in the world!!

So it's been a while since our last update, and due to that I've got a massive pile of photos to show you all, so hope you have a few minutes, 'cause this one will take some time.

For the third summer in a row, we SCORED an absolutely amazing suset for our sunset photo shoot with the coaches and crew, so we're going to throw a few of those shots at ya. Big thanks to Bryn Hughes who killed it on the camera, we've got a few of his shots in here to really up the eyecandy quota.

So in no particular order, here's a taste of what's gone down the last few weeks...

Camper Antoine Duhamel giving'er on the big combo set...


Hi Simon! Peace to you too...


The diggers got creative with the Whaletail box and made this feature that reminded me of a schoolyard slide, you could go up...


Or down...


T Hall was loving the jump beside the T-Bar


And how fun is jumping with your buddies into a classic Whistler evening?


Pretty fun indeed


All smiles over on the mogul course


Especially when coaches Jamie and Vincent hit the super-syncro-sevens on the top and bottom airs


And speaking of action over in the mogul course, holy S**T you should have seen what Mike Riddle was doing! Check this out, he was shredding the bumps, doing a 180 into the inrun for bottom air, and then launching switch corked 900s with a perfect grab, right back into shredding bumps through the finish. I'm still super bummed that we didn't get any video of that, but here's a couple of pictures from one of them, yeah Mike! Switch cork 9 in the bumps!



Meanwhile, over on the Wallride, Matt Hayward was busy launching some sweet corked flips off the end of the rollercoaster, here's a little sequence....




After that, Matt headed over to the halfpipe, and continued his reign of terror


Campers, as usual, were busy shredding and having fun...
