What is it like filming a skate video part?

Justin Eldridge is an amazing skateboarder. He has put a few parts together and knows the filming regime. Here Justin answers a few questions that I asked him while in Los Angeles. I have a few more of these things to post from various humans but have a ponder on the following.

If you haven't seen Justin in 'Yeah Right' check it out below!

Blog 100 - Bear Mountain.


I was staying with my friend Starr in Los Angeles and we went up to Bear Mountain on Saturday. They have TONS of boxes and a couple of jumps. I intended on filming with Sundays in the Park for Transworld but the filmer was super busy and we only got 2 or 3 runs together. Should have a couple of mellow things in there though I think. Fun day all up!

China and right before China.

Woke up to the newspaper in China - and I was in it.

China Daily Newpaper.
Olli should have the 30 RMB's he spent on a Gold Dollar sign chain and bought these.
Loly is an amazing photographer from Germany.

China was the most amazing competition any snowboarder could ask for. Met some really rad people and had a blast with every need taken care of. I got about 2 hours of footage - none of which is snowboarding. There were so many rad things we got to experience that you just couldn't get to do usually.
The week in China absolutely smashed the back out of any other competition I have ever been to.
