FT Webisode 3-Road Trippin

In this webisode we feature Nick Roy hitting up a rail in Vancouver and a road trip to Lake Tahoe, California. We had a lot of fun filming this one so sit back and enjoy the next few minutes of being on the road with the FT crew.

Gettin' shots with Dooley and Nick. Dooley got a couple photos that I'll be submitting to mags and Nick had trick of the day with a front board pop over to face mash on the rock hard snow.

Delbrook

A couple of weeks ago we got word that Vancouver was getting snow overnight so without sleeping, we got our gear ready, picked up a Banshee Bungee from Kevin Sansalone at 2am after he got home from the bar, and piled into Nick's truck to drive to the city.

The roads were just TERRIBLE! We were in whiteout conditions for most of the drive then as soon as we turned the corner to Lion's Bay, the roads were clear of snow and it was raining. Things didn't look very promising.

We got to North Van around 5am and scoped out Delbrook. There was only about 2cm of snow on the ground and it was raining. We didn't go down for nothing. We said "fuck it" and drove up about 10 blocks til we found some snow on the streets.

You couldn't really call it snow. It was slop. We took turns shovelling snow into the back of Nick's truck. After 3 loads we finished packing down the in-run and shaping the jump.

We went for team shits at McDonald's just down the street and waited for the sun to rise.

As you can see from the photos, the snow didn't last long. Soon the boys were landing in gravel.

Millen and Nick got some bangers that you will see in an upcoming webisode (you might even see the photos in one of next year's mags). Dooley was trying nosepresses but had to settle for a 50-50. He was PISSED.

Oh yeah, Kenny's girlfriend Merritt came by. I sneaked this creeper shot of Kenny going for it.
