Went up to Vernon for a few days last week to shoot some Freestyle. I love getting out to shoot freestyle and freeriding but this year has been so busy with racing coverage that I haven't had the time to do much so I figured now was as good a time as ever. Plus, the light in the fall is probably the nicest of the year and that warm quality definitely helps expand that "magic hour" a lot longer into the day so that's a major bonus.
So with that, I hit the road to Vernon to meet up with my good friend Reagan Sieg to shoot as much stuff as we could. Joining us were fellow freestylers, Morgan Kaliszuk and Kris Foster. We had an awesome day, shot a bunch of different stuff and capped it off with some pizza and beer and just checked out photos and footage. It couldn't have been a better time and really reminded me I need to make more time to get out with those guys.
On the way back, we decided to take the scenic route, going south through Penticton and on to highway three. We saw some kite surfers out on Skaha lake so we stopped and took a few shots. It sure looked like fun. With a few more weeks until the arenacross series kicks off hopefully I'll find time for another of these trips, I can't wait!
Here's a slideshow of my shots from our day shooting FMX:

Here's a few extra shots from our drive:
Sev was jumping for joy to shoot some freestyle.
The windy conditions on Thursday made for great Kite Surfing conditions on Penticton's Skaha Lake so we stopped for a few minutes to check it out.

The Kite surfers were rocking this sweet RV. I need this thing for the Nationals next season.
Ok, so this wasn't on the trip but Sunday night I went out and did some exploring near Hope. Love that Fall sunset light.
