Interpretation film

Last year during the 2013 winter I teamed up with my good friend Tim Pierce an we created Interpretation .

We've know each other forever an have grown up in Wanaka since we were young , so it was a great feeling to team up with a good friend an amazing filmer such as Tim.

We both wanted to capture riding in NZ at its finest an show people around the world what we have in our own back yard .

Not only did we shoot snowboarding, but we tried to capture everything that is special to me in some way an showcase living in Wanaka as my home .

The full movie will be out in November 2014 an the teaser is here below along with some images that were shot through out the piece .

Please take a watch an look out for the full piece when it drops in November , special thanks to all that were involved in making it possible including , Volcom , Cardrona ,  HMH ,  Lake Wanaka , Antti Autti  an Northlight pictures .
