Seycove Auction :: Freeride 101

Posted on by Smoke

So, good alumnus that I am, I donated a day of coached riding to my old school, Seycove. They have an auction every year, and I gave away a couple of four person instructional sessions.

What a guy.

Today’s contetants:

Kevin Karr (no relation to Will, just a coincidence), his boy Michael, and his buddy Cam.

Now, I didn’t get too many pics. We just didn’t get that much riding in. It was really dark so I only took a few on CBC.

Here’s Kevin learning how to huck.

I think Cam already knew.

Mike was just out for the ride.

So remember Will Karr from yesterday and the day before?



Well, same last name, same log….

Better result though.

He got 9 stitches, and a rain cheque for the ride.

…and he bought the rental bike off the Cove.

Another day with Will.

Barb came along today. She needed a good ride after having an interview for a promotion at work. Girl was all stressed out.

Not anymore.

Un-retouched image. This is the real colour.

Will, out in the woods somewhere.

Here’s something…

AUGHH! An ALIEN!!!

That’s no alien. That’s my Barb.

Will and Wendy Get Wet

Posted on by Smoke

Welcome to Sunny BC!!

Yup, back to real Shore weather now. Ah well, it’s more fun this way.

Will and Wendy are from that hotbed of freeride, Maryland, and I go the impression that Wendy was along just to get away from her relatives for a couple of hours.

She had fun though. Check out that big smile.

Will had no troubles at all, even though the rain could be accurately described as torrential.

Admittedly, the wood on the Shore is actually pretty easy in the pissing rain. Grippier than when it gets dry and dusty, even.

The now cliched Millenium Log shot.

Same log, different spot.

What’s that, hair?

Uh, yeah. Facial hair.

The second run, it got seriously wet. This is the only shot I took as the camera was getting soaked every time I took it out.
