The Travis Collier Defgrip jacket. Check it out to see some photos I shot of the jacket on Defgrip!
Couple new videos released over the past month or so but I had not time to blog about:
LEDvase – Footage of Travis Collier shot during the odd moments of rational weather during our crazy early winter in Vancouver.
Pumpkin Bike – Little bike check shot by me and edited by Brian Park. Here’s the full story of the bike -
In 2008, Harrison Boyce of Macneil Bikes got creative with Macneil’s 08 orange line and built up a BMX with the crazy bright colour combination of orange and green bike parts: is.gd/itfWw
In 2009 he built up a new bike, but the pumpkin bike still lived on in infamy. Some time that year my BMX was stolen, and in order to make sure I could keep riding and shooting with the Macneil team, Harrison kindly gave me the pumpkin bike.
Since then I’ve made a few modifications (took off pegs, put on freecoaster) and have been riding it gratefully ever since. It’s aired quarters, jumped dirt jumps, hit questionable dorps to flat, gone backwards lots, forwards sometimes. It’s been super fun to ride and the colour combination never fails to turn heads.
In Singapore right now visiting family. Been crazy busy finishing up school, now working on some videos and blog features and tons of other stuff. So much to do!!! Very happy.

One rainy day this month I went riding with Travis Collier, but after wounding himself after hitting a lamp while doing a wallride he headed home for some deserved chill time. But determined to keep testing my new video tripod, I kept riding and randomly ran into Joe Pennell at the plaza and we ended up filming some clips. The result is this quick little vid, hope you like!

Was not satisfied with the previous pictures I shot of my m0851 passeport wallet, so I produced a new series on it and also wrote a mini-review for a post on Carryology. Thank you everyone for the good response – Check it out here!
Have more write ups planned with Carryology, will be fun! =]
Am full speed ahead again at University until December. However, in between classes I’ve found the time to keep riding and shooting photos, including some of Flying Lotus and Hudson Mohawke when they played in Vancouver within a week of each other. Those pics soon! =]
Here are some photos of my passport holder. I guess it’s kinda random to post up photos like these, but there is a good reason they were taken. This great blog called Carryology posted about what they think is the perfect travel wallet, and I have to admit, it seems like a damn good one too. But I love my m0851 passport holder and it’s been with me to many places now and performed like a charm, so I thought it needed some photographic proof. Plus it still smells gorgeous and I love watching how the leather wears with use.
Just put up the last gallery of still images from the China 2010 series! Clicky here to see Beijing.
Visited London for a few days with my friends Steph and Ade. Ade was visiting for a while as a semi designer semi hobo. At least that was her initial plan but she quickly got hired, so now she’s a designer living in London. This is the first meal off the plane and tube ride. Fakin delicious.
China 2010 gallery of Xi’an is up!
3D glasses and a very special jacket you’ll be hearing about soon.
