Hello everybody! Just wanted to upload a new piece that I’ve been working on. This incredible photo was taken by my good friend Gustav Ohlsson and features a greasy snowboarder, Chris Bradley, ollieing over a slow sign at a ski hill. The photo was taken at night and features some really creative lighting. Nice work Gustav!
I wanted to over-emphasize the movement of the snowboarder and the fluidity that snowboarding can feel and look like. Sometimes it feels like nirvana because its an incredible feeling when everything comes together and tricks and moves are painless and require minimal effort. Your snowboard almost becomes just an extension of your own body and you can do almost anything with it. That’s what this photo looked and felt like to me, so I wanted to exaggerate that.
