On the road with Dylan Thompson – spring 2012

Our good friend, Dylan Thompson just checked in from the road and sent over a bunch of cool photos from his recent adventures. He’s been all over the place: snowboarding in Japan, surfing in California, supercross in Utah (watching, of course!), all the while logging clips for his movie part this year and having fun shredding at home at Park City. Here’s the low down from the man himself.

It was a rough year for snow in Utah.  Normally we spend a solid month or two filming around Salt Lake City and in the mountains. This year, the only chance to film was to go somewhere on a trip. When we were at home in Salt Lake, we spent a lot of time shredding park at Park City. Here is a front board on the stair set Cole Taylor shot with his iPhone.

Checking in with MFM and FODT

Marc Frank, Travis Kennedy and crew are still hanging out at camp, enjoying grub from the awesome Windells kitchen staff and hanging out on campus in the afternoons when it’s not as hot out. We checked in with MFM today to see what they’ve been up to so far.

Says Marc Frank, “we came to Windells ’cause this is the dopest spot by far with all the concrete, all the skating….The whole vibe down here is dope and the people that work here are dope. I’ve known Tim Windell for a long time and he always hooks it up and shows love to us and we show love back and it’s all like family over here, so it’s cool.”

MFM continued, saying, “we got here and rode a little park just to kinda get warmed up to the different kind of corn/slush snow. The first two days we’ve just been scoping and hanging out, kinda skating and playing basketball. Tomorrow we’ll really start working.  We’ve scoped out a couple of things to build, so we’re going to go build ‘em and film ‘em.”
