Wanted to put some more stuff in here but ended up bruising my heel a few days ago. I would also like to thank my sponsors that i don't have.
The crew spent the last couple weeks bouncing around Quebec hitting some new and old urban spots. Stay tuned for a park edit dropping this weekend!
A few days in late November early December 2013 in Mammoth...fun times with the crew!

Presented by The North Face & Eira. Join skiers Rob Heule, Mack Jones and Jay Heule as they set out on a 40 day cross-Canada RV trip with one goal: to explore their home country while hitting as many street spots as possible along the way. As the eyes of the skiing world were on the Winter Olympics, the boys were out adventuring with the aim of showing that with a little creativity, fun can be had on skis just about anywhere. With an all-Canadian soundtrack, crew, and itinerary, watch as they venture from the shores of Pacific Ocean all the way to the Atlantic.

Short and sweet. I went to Wisconsin for about a week and we shredded a good assortment of surfaces! Drink RUNA, wear Arsenic.
Neli Pictures, bunch of worthless guys who can ski a bit (one of us can actually film too) but that's pretty much it. This is what we managed to film at the streets last season, we are pretty stoked. Now watch it, tell us what you think and wait for the part two with all the spring footage dropping in a week.
There's a reason why the project is called "Stray". With nobody really knowing what we're going to do we couldn't really ask for any sponsors nor resorts to help us, so part two shows us straying around Northern Finland trying to find something enterntaining and creative to film. A lot of fun was had, hopefully you feel the vibes and get hyped for the upcoming season. Featuring Antti Ollila, Lauri Kivari, Anttu Oikkonen, Aleksi Patja, Miika "#crazyboy97" Virkki, Joni Särmö, Joona Kangas and Valentin Hänninen

It was hard not to shed a tear watching this after the events of today. J.P simply showed how well rounded of a skier he was in this part. From flairs in the halfpipe, from some of the earliest urban rails, and of course back country lines and booters, J.P was the boss as proved completing the loop. My thoughts and condolences to his friends and family. Here is a small piece of his legacy.
Full movie for free online later this fall.
Another season in Whistler has passed. Having a fair share of injuries was something that was new to me in skiing last winter. But as time goes on skiing just gets better and better and this season was one to beat, with or without snow. Seemed to do much of the filming this season and with my laptop calling it quits i couldn't be happier to have something to show! Took it easy this year and had a blast doing what i do. I wonder what ill do next year, simple...
May, a time when flowers are blooming, birds are chirping and the aroma of smelly socks wafts through the meadows and forests of Mount Hood, Oregon. Wait, what?! That's right, the Traveling Circus returns to the springtime ski destination of Timberline, dirty laundry and all, in "Mayisode," the 2nd episode of the 7th season. The TC crew meets up at Andy's cat-filled apartment in Government Camp for a week of shoveling, snacking and volcano skiing. "I literally hadn't worn deodorant, like I maybe, like a handful of times a year, now my armpits itch. Thanks deodorant!" - Andy Parry
RIP Tom Warnick, its always sad to see someone so young and talented pass away.
