Totally Extreme Weekend

John Webster photo. I will miss you this year worst enemy. Boo for real jobs.

I am all packed up and waiting for my airport shuttle (thanks Nate!) so I can head down to Mammoth for the Nikita Chickita this weekend. I am a little bummed I am missing the Holy Oly, but Nick has assembled a crew of two photographers, a filmer and himself, so I think it’s covered! Hopefully they don’t get in each other’s shots. And if Chikita is anything like last year, it will be a good time as well.

This year I was less involved with the planning of Chickita, but I still helped with registration and will be journalizing like mad when I am there. Fingers crossed that it’s sunny and wonderful as Mammoth should be so I don’t have to “try” in order to get the shot.

I am also meeting up with the Osiris girls crew while I am down there to maybe shoot some stuff for them. I keep telling these people I am not a real snowboard photographer, but no one seems to listen! It’s fun anyway, and hopefully I get some good stuff. I’ve got a ridiculous amount of stuff packed (yay snowboard photography!) and I sure am glad I have airline status. Even if does mean a 3 hour layover in SF to get to Reno (which is equally far away from Mammoth as SF.)
