Tadashi Fuse, Follow in his footsteps


Sorry for the lack of any updates.  I went on a mountain retreat in the far off distant town of Cache Creek BC.  Unfortunately the place I was staying at is pretty much off the grid and has variable dial-up access at best.

The mountain retreat helped with relaxing the ankle and assisted in it's healing.  Below is the x-ray from my most recent check up.  Physio starts in 1 more week, and then hopefully after 6 more weeks I'll be back to walking without crutches.  




This installment features non other than my favourite little man, all the way from Japan..... Tadashi Fuse.  This little guy is a machine.  From sunrise to sunset he goes non stop jumping off and riding anything in sight. 

 

Tadashi is by far my favourite rider to shoot with.  Instead of following the herds of cows off to cheese-wedgeland, he prefers to ride a bit more off the beaten path and ride the terrain as it is presented to him.  


The shot below is from an early Christmas session up the Rutherford valley.  Instead of heading directly up to the alpine, we decided to take advantage of the quality snow at lower elevations and pillage everything in sight as if we were wild powder pillow junkies.  I like this mainly because of its naturalness and also because of Tadashi's ollie style.  More like Nico, less rider-in-a-box.


Anyhow, that's all for now.  Take care and play safe!
