Finally, I have time for another update and can share the next instalment in my European work/fun/happy time fortnight!
After a hectic weekend in Berlin I had a teeny weeny stopover chez moi; just long enough to cuddle our four cats, have a proper cuppa and feast on toast and marmite. About eight hours later, I headed out to Austria for my next adventure, in Kaprun.

Red Bull Shr3d is a three day snowboarding event which sees teams of three riders go head to head to produce an edit and a collection of photos. Each team is headed up by a pro, ours being Aimee Fuller. Alongside the two amateur riders that made up our team of shredders, I was joined by Hannah Bailey who was tasked with filming and editing the video.

Shooting up on the Kitzsteihorn was absolutely brilliant, not least as I’d hired some extra lenses to play with, one of which which totally superb. I had to edit and upload my best shots daily to Red Bull Content Pool, so I was pretty much working from 8am – 10pm daily, but hey, at least I was basking in the sun whilst doing it!

On the final day of the trip, I managed to squeeze in a quick half day of snowboarding with Aimee and Stef, which was so much fun that I can’t actually find words to describe it. Kitzsteinhorn was really good, with a 22ft pipe, loads of boxes, rails and kickers; I’m definitely planning to go again. On my last run down the hill I felt a real stab of sadness knowing that I might not get to go snowboarding again this season.
If you’d like to check out more of the pictures that I took, head on over to Coven Magazine and check ‘em out.
