Michael Jordan.

Nothing to do with snowboarding but its a great source of inspiration, MJ speaks 9 minutes 53 seconds that will make you want to take on the world. G.O.A.T!

9 Tricks With Bradley Hesson. from Brad Gauley on Vimeo.

This day was my first time filming with Hesson, although already knowing he was a funny kid and that he was a good dude to film with I didn't realize how hilarious he actually was until later when I was going through his footage.

They Grow up so Fast..

Andrew Geeves, Myself, Jody Wachniak, Jake Kuzyk.

Last week I ran into Jake Kuzyk while he was at Horseshoe resort taking a quick day break while he was in Ontario filming for the new VideoGrass film Retrospect.

Jake reminded me of the time back in 2005 when I went to Winnipeg to Do a Demo with DC who I was riding for at the time. I was 21yrs old freshly on DC and they asked me if I minded going to Winnipeg to do a solo demo at a snowboard shop called Kings.
Of course my answer was yes having never done anything of this sort before but when I showed up that evening to do the demo the set up was sketchy to say the least.
A snowmobile tow in across a parking lot to step up onto some scaffolding then I'd hit a rail on the other side. To make a long story short I was nervous as hell and shaking like crazy but ended up getting through it.

Another thing I remember from the demo was 3 kids that seemed really into everything that was going on and that where stoked to have a DC "Pro" in thier city of Winnipeg.

Who would have thought those same 3 kids would turn out to be Jake Kuzyk, Andrew Geeves, and Jody Wachniak.

Last week after seeing Jake I dug deep into the archives and found these photos, its pretty crazy to see where they're at these days with snowboarding considering they where just kids wishing they could have been doing what I was that night. How the tables have turned!!!
