Urban with Voleurz…

A couple of weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to tag along with Chuck for a few hours of shooting urban rails up in Whistler for the new Voleurz flick. After setting up one gnarly rail, it started to dump snow so speed became an issue. Luckily, the lone rider for the day (and Grouse pro team member) Barry Hartman scoped out a down rail nearby with a natural drop in. After setting it up, half an hour was spent hitting it till Barry got the shot for the 2 filmers. I, of course, was shooting photos.  Here’s what I came up with.

A Day With The Grouse Pro Team

Recently, there was a competition up on the site in which three riding related questions were asked. This month’s winner, Eric Behn, won an Oakley prize pack as well as a day of riding for him and three buddies with the Grouse pro team!

Despite the lack of snow, I think I can speak for all of us when I say it was still a super awesome day. Check out how the session went down!

Super Secret Alterna Shoot

Alterna Films had a private shoot this past week on Grouse Mountain. Taking full advantage of the slushy spring conditions, the crew invaded the Quicksilver park, set up some highly photogenic features, and threw down.

Stepover. 65 feet to the knuckle. Take 'er deeeep.

Riders in attendance included Craig Bealieu, Beau Bishop, Wiley Tesseo, Barry Hartman, Matt Belzile, Tadej Valentan, and many more. Even Grouse Mountain local Liam Casey was invited in on the fun. You can check out the Alterna blog for some behind scenes shots of the action but the only place to see the real goods will be in Alterna’s 08/09 film.

Big enough for ya?

Big thanks to Carlo for letting me in on the session!

Signal Snowboards – Rider Owned and Operated

I recently broke my thumb in practice at the Showdown Over the City so I’ve got a good week left to catch up on my blogging. First off, I wanted to announce that I’m more than stoked to be riding for Signal Snowboards and Celsius. Like an unfaithful boyfriend, I have been eyeing down the Signal website for the past few months, checking out the product at SIA in Las Vegas and have happily made the “board sponsor” transfer.

Evidence that the 156 Park Series can eat powder as well. R: Barry Hartman PH: Bryant Bell

I’ve been riding the 156 Signal Park deck for the past couple weeks and am really stoked. When it dumped, the thing floated ontop of powder. It’s a solid park board that felt great on the 70-foot booter that Grouse Mountain built. The best thing about the Park Series is that you can find one for $400 since it’s Signal’s lowest priced deck.

Grouse Mountain extended their closing until April 26th so don’t pack in your shred anytime soon. With about three weeks left you can be sure the park crew will be on top of their game.

Peace,

Hartman

Atomic Team Meeting

This past Wendesday was packed full of entertainment.  Grouse Mountain Pro team rider Jenelle Pritchard and myself were out shooting a Grouse Mountain commercial with Carlo Wein and Bryant Bell at Alterna Action.  They were looking for powder shots so we were “forced” to rip up the backside of the mountain and find some solid turns.  It had dumped the previous day so we found what we were looking for.  Next sunny day we will be shooting the park section of the commercial.

We soon met up with the rest of the Atomic Snowboard team along with our BC rep to go over 2009-2010 product and have a quick meeting.  After taking back a round of burgers and pitchers, we were ready to rip the powder-covered park.

Check back soon for video and photo updates.

Barry
