Riding The Long White Cloud Part 1

A few days ago John Rattray uploaded the 5 parts of the New Zealand bicycle/skate trip he did a few summers ago with fellow éS pro Rick McCrank, as well as Chris Haslam, Cairo Foster, Silas Baxter-Neal, Kenny Anderson and Keegan Sauder.

To quote John: "My idea was to use the trip as a speculative platform from which to investigate what life might be like in a post-industrial society. That is to say a society whose main fuel source has been depleted to the point of being scarce and expensive. Please let me know in the comments if this objective is not clear from the film."

For part 2-5 check out John Rattray's website, The Predatory Bird.

It was shot and edited by the Vancouver based FriendlyFire productions.

Machotaildrop

The trailer to Canadian filmmakers Corey Adams and Alex Craig's ambitious debut feature Machotaildrop is HERE. The film is a highly visual and fantastical journey about an amateur skateboarder exploring the dreams of sponsorship and stardom in a fanciful realm. Look out for Steve Olson, John Rattray and our very own Rick McCrank with humorous supporting roles.
