Boreal Sunset Shoot....



I got a call from Boreals Eric Rosenwald a few days ago letting me know that he had just finished a new jump and wanted to invite us up to shoot on it. I made some phone calls to assemble a crew. Andreas Gidlund, Kyle Miller, Taylor Carlton, Nial Romanek and
Nick Visconti would be doing the boarding and Abe Blair, Tim Bradley and Al Rodriguez would be documenting it. We headed up to the jump around five to check it out and get the speed dialed. At first we had our reservations about it but all it took was a high speed straight air from Taylor and it was game on. The sunset was gorgeous, everyone was landing on their feet and high fives and smiles where abounding!

Nial, Andreas, Taylor and Kyle catching up on stories and excited to get in the air.

We shot on St Patrick's day. Those Celtics are going to need the luck of the irish to get past the Cavs in the playoffs this year.

Abe Blair just had surgery on his arm. The doctors are making him wear this so he doesn't chew on the wound and pull the stitches out. Hang in there buddy...

Tim Bradley and Taylor Carlton.
Taylor choosing to hike so he can warm the cold legs up.
The drop in. Thats the jump on the right. No turns from here... point it and send it. You can't ask for a more scenic spot!

Taylor hit this thing first. I believe this is a second hit front 540.

Miller warning up with a method.

Nick Visconti sending a back 180 all the way to I80

Frontside 360 from Andreas Gidlund. The kid has timeless style.

Thanks to everyone at Boreal for making this shoot happen!
