Pho todd

Seeing as my French home boy has the last week pretty well covered I've decided to make a quick post showing the homie Todd Henshall's editing skills. Shit goes hard, there's also some of his news related work towards the end. If you're in the Vancouver area please hook him up with a job haha I know he wants to go back over there. He also has a dope photography facebook which you can view here.

Heat

One week deep into 4 Pegs Dave french vacations.

We've been sipping on that Absinthe and being really lazy coz its really hot down here.

We managed to get some riding done tho with some of my french homies and founded some sweet spots!

This raz is heaven

Waxing a perfect setup (except for the old people telling us to stop making noises ahha)

Seeing as I'm not working at the moment (which is fuckin brilliant I might add) I've had the time to open up Final cut express and get the basics down enough so I could do this edit of my time spent in HK/China. On my computer this edit looks crystal clear however for whatever reason it seems to have lost some quality when I uploaded it to Vimeo. Nothing in this program is in an obvious spot but with the help of my home boy Todd Henshall and a few internet tutorials I managed to complete the edit. It's a crap load better than imovie once you get the hang of it. Definitely more excited to film and do further edits now...

Holidays

My baby girl Shayne came all the way from Australia to spend 3 weeks with me. So we decided to take a visit to my grandparents deep in the french country side and then to Paris to see her Australian friends.

We had a blast but she's already back down under which sucks big time.

I took a few Iphone pics, check it:
