I spent the day shooting at the Urban Decay competiton in downtown Asheville. If you havent heard of this yet, you will, it will be in chain reaction 5, and one of wixom's movies. Its one of the biggest events in the southeast. I had a media pass, so I shot on course all day. It was a blast. Kyle Ebbet and Jeff Lenosky were the two biggest names, as well as Seth and Piper from Evil, and George Ryan from Ironhorse. I'm sure there were some other big names too.

First Picture, a guy on a little bike going big on the first quarter.

Shadow on the quarter...sweet picture.

One of the walls.

big quarter.

Perhaps the coolest aspect of having a media pass: 7th floor roof access.

Putting my 12x to work from the roof.

cool shiat.

More of the walls.

Piper. (I think)

Best picture of the day? I think so.

Ebbet on a wall ride berm type thing.

In case you cant tell...that endless lifetime is wrapped completely in duct tape.

I see you caught Dolby in action TP...Looks like he's workin' hard to get the right angle.

 

[T-Pirate]

He stashed a camera up in a tree pointing at the tranny of that box. Extra gnar points for that one.

I bet the footage looks great. The roof shoot was pretty cool.

 

[rydronthestorm]

dolby, its ben i really like the shots you came up with. if you have a chance i was wondering if i could get a copy of the film i will email you my contact info, also i was hoping to get an unedited copy of video from anybody that has it. i would like the raw footage just for my own viewing pleasure. by the way thank you so much to all the riders that came out. and the video guys i hope you all had fun. later from the old man.

yeah, but it doesn't need to be when you get a media pass... I got to hang with T-Pirate so I got great spots to sit and watch.

Yeah it sucked for spectating compared to last year, but the much better course made up for it. People were actually doing stuff for their runs, rather than just box jump, wallride, box jump.

 

[rideLIKEjehu]

great shots, and cool meeting y'all ...

that probably makes the bike ride better, cut the tob tube down and duct tape it back....

We did it fully for the riders this year.
Next year will be differant once again, hopefully catering to riders of more varied skill levels and for the spectators as well.

Thanks to all who made it and made it such a great time!
