With permission, I have taken this idea from another cult. I think it would be great here.

This is a thread to post what you are totally stoked on. Share with us your happiness.  :)

3 untracked lines today of knee deep pow. I love my ON3P's. Hate my boots, love my skis.

Landed a 20 footer near Tye, felt good man. Stevens then closed unexpectedly, apparently they cant afford to do night skiing midweek, which is a real shame...

Agreeing with Ashley & Lesley in one night...this is like a record for me. =)

I was going to say...Boys, not to kill you're stokedness, I totally emphasize with it. There now with my bf, but damn, reading all this is like yooooooooooooo chill out!!!! That's what PM's, texts, phone, emails, etc. are for. We're all happy you had a great time together, but none of us were there and we already got the jist so the rest doesn't matter for shit. =)

So....No bitchiness there....Continue to have a fucking awesome time, I know I will, and let's go rip!

I also got some new kicks, Adam has seen a text pic of them. When I'm not on my work laptop I'll post'em. Pretty sure you'll (or at least most if not all) will appreciate them!

Oh, and I know this is the stoked thread, but......FUCK RAIN FUCK WARM FUCK RAIN FUCK WARM FUCK RAIN FUCK WARM FUCK RAIN FUCK WARM WAY TO FUCK UP 2-3 FEET OF FRESH MOTHER NATURE YOU WHORE!!!

I forgot........

YAH for Nips qualifying, especially so high

Yah for me mastering painting my nails while buzzed or drunk

Yah for going skiing/boarding this weekend with a few friends that I only see 5-6 times a year (+Adum & Pablo if they're not too lazy to drive down)

Ohhhh...And, I have to add in the fact that Mr. Nick Martini is in the new PBP movie. I've known him since he was 14, maybe earlier. Great kid that has always bust his ass. He and the rest of the Stept boys have always put out great/motivational movies (for people like me & my friends at least). So dope! Love seeing these boys (now guys) get there! FUCK YEAH

Just for the hell of it I'll (well deserved I will say though) throw out a shout-out to our own Michael Rogge from Lake George (oldschool Queensbury), NY. Pretty sure his mom loves me and I've only spent a weekend with the fam. :) Uber impressed Michael! Ring RIng....phone works both ways!

I'll let Ian post it, but he put together an impressive little edit of a slew of photos he took this winter for school.

Not only am I proud to close it out as the final set of images, but it's also just an awesome piece of work.

Just got back from going to the gymnastics place and hitting up a real trampoline with Billy. So much fun.

Gymnastics trampolines are the third coolest playtoy, after skis and chairlifts.

Thanks again for everything Steve-O! (I can't say enough about how much of a help Steve's been in getting me where I need to be, when I need to be there!!!!)



So I made this edit for a self-promo assignment which was a lead up to our senior project, it's over on my blog as I can't figure out how to embed flickr videos in here.

I literally just got home from about 10 days straight of 16ish hour days infront of computers with Photoshop and InDesign finishing up two projects, one of which was my seinor project. For that, I designed a mini ski mag, and then filled it with my own photography and writing.... I'll tell you guys more about it when I get digital versions online, but..... it pretty much absorbed my life the past 10-12 weeks.


Anyway, the part Steve's talking about, the podcast, you can check out over here:

Dude, so those shots were a bunch of stills put together? Its so sick! The people in your shots have good personalities, made for fun pictures. Is it finished? I'm guessing no, it kinda just ended.

Stoked.  My mum gave me a Sony Digital camera as my grad present. She won it at her X-mas party as a door prize. 

Anyways,  she held off until this morning before giving it to me.

Then,  I was out doing some stuff this morning. Came back home and realized it wasn't in my pocket anymore.  I'm wearing a pair of khakis with shallow pockets today which are notorious for having stuff fall out of em. After running around the house 3 times, checking my car twice, (i found my MP3 player that has been missing for a while), no sign of the camera. I phoned the gas pump, and place I went this morning, no sign...  I was posting a lost and found add on Craiglist when I thought of one place I hadn't checked.  I found it deep in the bowels of the lazyboy.  So Stoked when I found it.
I was freaking out thinking I would have to tell her,  "Uhh... I lost it in under 4 hours..."

I had my exit interviews at school today.  Now everything is official.  I've earned my Diploma with an overall grade of 85%.  Exactly the mark I've been shooting for since 1st year.  Not quite honor role but nobody in the field cares about marks anyhow.  It's looking like I might have to wait until May to write the Provincial exams & start working, regardless Stoked!

Saw a small band play in a packed to the walls small basement in a friends house. Didn't stay too long, but it was cool to see, original Seattle music being played in its element.

What's the rest of it going to look like?  That looks good as a stand-alone piece for sure, but it would probably be even better as part of a sleeve.

but what about trying to get Vonnegut's signature portrait incorporated?

I'd be kind of interested to see what it would be like to juxtapose the two rather than trying to incorporate them in the same style.  What you have right now would definitely be the dominant element (and rightfully so), and having that pop from the rest of the sleeve could be really sweet.  Of course, it's hard to say for certain without actually seeing it, and this will be going on your arm rather than mine.

Really, where at? I'm moving back up to Anchorage for a few months on Friday. Is it at the Sealife Center in Seward? If so, you'd love it there; I've had a number of friends who've done internships there and had a blast.
