The Friday Mix – Mental Java Bodyboard, Josh Pall Skating & Bromdog ripping!

Time for another epic Friday Mix of action sports video from the week. I have been bombarded with good edits this week and it was tough choosing my three favorites, but these are them.

First off we go down to Java, Indonesia, with bodyboarder Joshua Garner and the Paradise Paradox. Deep and super thick pits with mental air game and a good backstory make this a winner. I am pretty sure most Bodyboarders will be booking tickets to Java soon…

Next up we go skating for a day round Sydney, with Josh Pall. Super relaxed and and clearly in an area he skates plenty, you can but help appreciate this video shot on a RED.

Lastly we go round the planet with Cape Town charger, Matt Bromley, as he throws himself into big pits and perfect waves. Edited by Steven Michelson.

Enjoy the mix 🙂

The Friday Mix – Burton Backcountry, Bearclaw MTB and Mavericks with Grant Twig Baker

Prepare yourself for some Friday Awesomeness! This week on the Friday Mix we start with the new snowboarding film from Burton, Backcountry. Burton’s four-part web series [SNOWBOARDING] kicks off on 9/13 with the release of the first episode, BACKCOUNTRY. This episode takes you deep into the mountains of British Columbia, the Pacific Northwest, Switzerland, and beyond. Featuring the riding of Jussi Oksanen, Terje Haakonsen, Jeremy Jones, Nicolas Müller, Mikey Rencz, and Mark Sollors, BACKCOUNTRY highlights heavy riding on massive cheesewedges, natural big mountain lines, hairy cliff drops, and soft landings.

After that I present a short web doccy on the Bearclaw Invitational. Hosted by the legendary Darren Berrecloth, the Bearclaw Invitational in Mount Washington, Canada, is the final mountain bike slopestyle contest of the 2013 season. See how the athletes thrive and survive at this contest with the final showdown on the horizon.

Lastly take a trip into the heaving waters at Mavericks with South African big wave surfer, Grant Twig Baker showing why he is one of the best in the business! The guy takes such different lines to the other surfers and really shows what the paddle potential is at one of the world’s gnarliest waves…

The Friday Mix – Jbay Open Doccy, Enduro Life and River Surfing

Welcome to your Friday Mix and we start with an epic short doccy on the Jbay Open of Surfing this week. It was a super fun week in Jbay, a great competition and a huge battle between the age groups. You might also notice a certain captain’s voice commentating in the background haha! Great to see Greg Emslie with the win in Jbay finally!

Next up we got some awesome Enduro for you in Fly Machines’ Directors Reel for 2013. Some epic terrain, bikes and action that will get you frothing to get out into the great outdoors on your dirt machine.

Lastly we finish up with some river surfing from the alps. My mate Chris Cab sent me this video of his mates surfing in the middle of nowhere in Austria. Just goes to show how hard we as surfers will work to get a surf session in. Guess a its true what they say, Only a surfer knows the feeling…

The Friday Mix – Great White encounter spearfishing, Real Snow Backcountry & Chippa Wilson Surfs

Welcome to your Friday mix and while interest is on new wetsuits to deter sharks, check out this close encounter with a 5m Great White off of Port Elizabeth. I ran a video last year of Eugene van Wyngaardt fending off a 3m Shark. Seems he decided to have an encounter with a bigger one. You can actually see the spear point pushing in her skin as he fends her off. Scary stuff!

Next up its almost time for Xgames LA and this year they have a new Real Snow contest. Check out the Real Snow Backcountry competition teaser with some of the world’s best big mountain destroyers! Then get online and watch and vote for your favorite!

Lastly check out the latest offering from free surfing phenomenon, Chippa Wilson. Some serious steez on this kid.

Enjoy your weekend!

The Friday Mix – Roxy Pro ass furore, Ice Climbing & Chasing Trails…

It’s Friday and that of course means your fix of great videos from the world wide web! This week we start with an incredible short doccy on ice climbing with Tim Emmet. Armed with two axes he pushes the boundaries of the frozen world. Incredible shots and mental climbs.

Next up, Kenny Smith does things on a mountain bike that no one else does. He finds possibilities in places where no one else even looks. Bigger, steeper, faster—that’s his style. Check out his riding in Whistler.

Lastly I bring you the Roxy Pro France promo video which has caused quite the stir online this week. Many have questioned aht it has to do with the surf event, as there is no surfing, but gratuitous use of a mighty fine bum and shower scene…
I am taking a wild guess, but I think the said ass belongs to Rosy Hodge. What are your thoughts? (Oh and a great parody video for you to below, haha)
