Burton International Team At Falls Creek

image-10

Some of the international Burton team are up at Falls Creek. Talk about good timing, the suns out and the snow is all time. Jeremy Jones, Keegan Valaika and their entourage of media personnel are apparently here working on the oh-10 Burton catalog and whatnot. Not a bad concept if you ask me…. Showing some of the worlds best shredding and chilling at Falls Creek. If the recent shots of the StyleWars setup are anything to go by, it’s fair to say Falls Creek is the premiere Australian snowboard mountain. Check under the cut for more photos!

Day One: Consisted of the long drive from Sydney to Falls which included many skate stops with both Jeremy and Keegan getting a bunch of skate shots, including Keegan ollieing Jeremy with Hooper and pop alumni Dean Blotto Grey and Jan Snarski getting the shots.

Day Two: We hit up two spots around the village at Falls Creek which worked out super well after getting shut down on a really good ledge that beckons to be hit. Both Keegan and Jeremy as well as new comer Charles Reid getting shots in the bag.

Day Three (Yesterday): Started out with a quick tour of the resort including Chris Boadle and Jeremy taking a run through the park which was getting prepared for StyleWars (which starts today). The crew then proceeded to work on a long rail to drop off at a really accommodating lodge that bought out extra shovels for us. Unfortunately we will all have to wait till the 2010 Burton Brochure to see the results.

Thanks to Carts and Boads for the sweet hook-ups!
