Had a great afternoon in Stevenson yesterday with the locals and Shawn Richmond putting on a fun show. Filled up one memory card shooting from the beach, one from the kayak. Here's a sample of some of the better shots...

Shawn was still going up on this one.  You need to see his stuff in sequence to appreciate the height and hang time he gets.

Nice shots - crazy nice trix. The low down, on the water perspective is awesome. The R - bro's have a place at the coast - Does that count as 'local'? - Anyway, I think they should be honorary locals at the least. They are cool guys and throw down shome crazy shit.

ok - last part of the shots from the beach.

And yeah, I vote we make Shawn and Jessie honorary locals. They're super cool, laid back, take the time to talk to everybody, and fun to be around. We've run into them in Maui, Corpus Christi, SPI, and out here and they've always been great. Kudo's to them and hats off to their parents too! Thumb's Up

Ok - this might be my best shot - would have been better with the wide angle and the kite in frame but I still like it.
