There's a war going on for my mind. The various factions want it for it holds the key to something they seek: my spending power and potentially yours. I'm comforted by the knowledge, however, that if I'm thinking, I'm winning; and right now I'm thinking, are you?

Every day we are bombarded with advice on how we should live. We call this advertising, it's the blueprint for modern life. We need better music, faster cars, greener grass, and bigger penises. Fortunately there are many competing blueprints to choose from. It is still a matter, however, of choosing one of the pre-defined options; free thinking people need not apply.

You guys look better already... Snowboarding is one way to stay out of the war's line of fire. It's an endeavour that, while you are doing it, all that matters is you, the mountain, nature and your friends. The snowboarding industry itself, however, is not so pure. This was evident during this year's Telus World Ski and Snowboard Festival (and festivals past I'm sure). The most visible things in Whistler village from April 11th to the 20th were: Schick (to look good), GM (to get to the place where you need to look good), Kokanee (to make those people look good to you) and of course Telus (to tell people how good you looked). The most important element of the festival seemed to have been forgotten, or at least was not immediately evident: the snowboarding. If you looked hard enough, however, you would quickly see that it was there lurking beneath the surface.

One of the reasons that I like snowboarding is because I like snowboarders, and by that I mean REAL snowboarders. Not those with fake goggle tans and orders of magnitude more time riding mahoganee ridge than actual play time in the snow. In many ways, snowboarders are much more genuine than most people. They have experienced the harshness of winter head on and walked away with a smile. They might not face this with incredible skill or style, but it does not matter how good they are at snowboarding only how much joy the get from it. Though it may be hard to distiguish a goggle tan obtained in a tanning salon from one obtained while hiking up a steep aspect to earn some turns, if you look into a snowboarders eyes, you should have no problem identifying the true ones from the rest. Rest assured, contrary to the message in their add campaigns, Expedia has no idea how those snowboarders feel about winter. They'd probably just as soon take a vacation to somewhere with snow in the middle of summer than go somewhere tropical in the middle of winter, counter to what is customary.

Although true snowboarders represent something quite contrary to the industry itself, they would be nowhere without it. For this reason, it's important to remember that you vote with your dollars. Make sure when you buy your gear, that you aren't supporting something that you don't believe in. Certainly not because that product has a flashier ad than another. You probably wouldn't let me tell you who to vote for in a democratic election, so don't let me, or anyone else, tell you what to ride or what to wear. By avoiding monoculture, we ensure that snowboarding remains a feeling rather than a look or an attitude. Admittedly, people look up to me for advice on snowboarding, this follows from being a teacher. I always try, however, to make sure to only provide factual information. You should always synthesize any advice with your own needs and desires, otherwise eventually, every snowboarder will be a clone of every other snowboarder. Then the sport will become yet another victim of the corrosiveness of conformity.

Indeed there is a war going on for my mind and it has been for some time now, but the warring factions are engaging in an excercise in futility. The real prize, the item of the most value, is my heart and they'll never be able to take that away from me, I've already given it away.

フリーラン♪ 

2007.03.30 Friday

Free riding!♪

We went to Whistler mountain!Tadashi, Aki, Shota, Taro, and me Keiji.Contrary to the forecast, it was good weather today.It was the first time in a long time we went up the mountain because we have been shooting with our sleds lately.There were still so much good snow on the peak and it boost our spirits.We all hit the mogul slopes so our legs are so tired but we had so much fun.Some birds came to have lunch with us.Aki with Taro’s sun glasses.In the afternoon, we headed to the snowboard park.It was so crowded because it was sunny.The people there were so greedy to drop in that you couldn't tell when and who was dropping in. It was like a boarder cross race.After we went down the mountain, we had some beers and chicken wings.Chicken wings are so tasty! Some are spicy and some are sweet.When I went to Alaska, I ate chicken wings all the time.Everybody loved it.We had so much fun free riding. Riding with friends is the best!

昨日はみんなでウィスラーマウンテンへ滑りに行ってきました!メンバーは忠、アキ、ショータ、フィルマーのタロウと自分(ケイジ)の5人。天気予報とは違っていい天気。 最近モービルでの撮影ばかりだったので、フリーランするのはみんな久しぶり。山頂はまだいい雪が残っていてテンション上がったな〜!みんなでモーグルバーン攻めまくって足はパンパンだったけど、かなり楽しかったです(^^)


ランチ時には小鳥も寄ってきます。


タローさんのサングラスで遊ぶアキ。(笑) 午後はスノーボードパークへ!天気が良かったせいなのかパークはメッチャ混み。[:満室:]誰がどこからドロップしてくるのか分からなくて、みんなガツガツしまくり。まるでボータークロスですなこれは。。。[:ひやひや:] 下山してからはビールとチキンウィング!おいしいんですよ〜。チキンウィング。辛いのとか甘いのがあって。手羽先にホットソースをからめてある感じなのかな?去年アラスカに行った時にはいつも食べてたかも。みんなも大好きです。 フリーラン楽しかった〜。やっぱりみんなでワイワイ滑るのって最高 ですね。[:チョキ:] 

03/28/07

 快晴!! 今日も朝早くからモービルで撮影に行ってきましたよ〜♪今回は忠&アキ&タロー、そしてタクミ&ショータ&ケイジの2クルーに分けて出発。天気はかなりよくていい感じ!何かできそうなところを探しまわります。

  2007.03.28 Wednesday

Fair skies!!

We went shooting from early in the morning. Today, we set off as two crews. Tadashi, Aki, Taro in one crew, and Takumi, Shota, Keiji in another crew.It was a very clear day and so nice.


氷をこわしまくるショータ。        タクミ & ショータ。2人乗りでどこまでもついてきます。(^^)                     Takumi & Shota 

この2日間でいろいろと映像が残せたのでお楽しみに〜!

We were able to shot some lines, jumps, and more. You’ll see! 

03/27/07

 Nice day! 晴れるかも!

と言う事で早朝に集合!忠、タクミ、ショータ、フィルマーのタローさんと自分(ケイジ)。そして腰を少し痛めて休んでいたアキ君も今日から復活! クリフや、アップ系のジャンプ、新しい地形を発見してライン系などやってきました!

2007.03.27 Tuesday

Nice day!

It looked like it was going to be sunny so we all met early in the morning.Tadashi, Takumi, Shota, Taro(filmer) and me, Keiji.Aki recovered from his back problem and joined us.We shot a cliff, and an up jump, and rode some lines and explored some new places.

Tadashi and Aki rode double on a sled heading to a kicker.It was very steep like a wall. (^^;)


撮影から帰ってきたのは夜8時近く。疲れたけど楽しかったな〜[:わーい:]あしたもがんばりまーす!

We came back around eight pm. I was soooo tired but it was fun.We’ll take another go at it tomorrow!! 

03/26/07 

今日も疲れた〜 拓巳です!今日は、タダシくん、タロウさん、ケイジ君、ショウタと五人でモービルで撮影に行ってきました。天気はいまいち良くなかったけど晴れ間を狙ってみんないいジャンプしてました[:嬉しい:]明日は天気がいいみたいなので朝から頑張りま〜す[:グッド:]おやすみ〜

2007.03.26 Monday

Another exhausting day. 

This is Takumi! I went shooting via sled with Tadashi, Taro, Keiji, and Shota. The weather could've been better but we managed to get a few shots when the sun peeked out. It’s going to be sunny tomorrow, and we will go shooting from early in the morning! Gotta get a good night's sleep. Good night!

 ろーどぎゃっぷ ROAD GAP

 フィルマーのケイジです!昨日は朝早くからビデオでも出ている有名なロードギャップポイントをチェックしてきました!メンバーはタダシ、タクミ、ショータ、フォトグラファーのマルさん、フィルマーのタロウさんと自分。

Hey it's Keiji! Yesterday, early in the morning, we went to check out the very famous road gap! The members were Tadashi, Takumi, Shota, Dice-K Maru (photographer), Taro-san (videocameraman) and me.


ランディングまでイメージする忠。 1年ぶりに来たけどやっぱデカいすね〜〜。このジャンプ…。。。ビルに例えたら何階建てくらいなんだろうな…?(^^;)今回は雪が思っていたよりも悪く天気も少し暗いので、今度またコンディションがいい時にやる事にします。 帰る前にはみんなで雪玉で遠くの倒木を狙って遠投大会![:ベースボール:]当たりそうでなかなか当たらないんですよ〜これが。みんなムキになって投げまくってました。 始めに当てたタダシはみんなから[:ビール:]をゲット!元ピッチャーだけあってうまかったな〜〜ちなみにタローさんはサードでスイッチヒッターだったみたいです。 100球までは投げてないけど、もう投げすぎで肩が痛いです。結局ショータはビリになってみんなにコーヒーおごる事になりました。[:チョキ:] 今日は雨も降っていたのでオフ。忠とスケートパークで遊んできました。地下なので空気はあんまり良くないんですけど、楽しく汗かいてすっきりしたな〜!でも体はバキバキです。(笑)

Tadashi can imagine how the landing would be. We came here for the first time in a year and...the slope is really big as I was expecting... If the gap is compared to a building, the building would be how many stories?(^^;) The snow around there was bad and it was dark, so we decided to try this next time when the condition is better. Before we left this gap, we played long cast with snow balls and we tried to hit a piece of wood. It looked easy but it’s not actually. We started to get pissed off that nobody was hitting the target! Tadashi hit the target first and he got beers from everybody! He used to be a pitcher so he was good. Taro-san was 3 base and also a switch-hitter. We threw too many snoballs, like a 100 and now I have pain in my shoulder. Shota was the worst and he has to buy coffees for us. It was raining so we took the day off today and I went to the skate park with Tadashi. Since the skate park is under ground, the air is not clean but we enjoyed ourselves and broke a sweat. Now my muscles are sore. 

03/23/07 

雪ふってっどぉ〜(ウィスラー)Snowing Whistler!

 今日はですね〜、ウィスラーから大体1時間ぐらい車で走ったポイントに行ってきたんですよ。やっぱりいいですね〜。違う景色を見るってことは。なんかワクワクしながらポイントを探しててね。これが楽しいんですよ。 ちなみに今日の撮影内容は、自分は、ピローラインをせめて。ショータとタクミは、クリフジャンプを攻めてたかな。いい感じのジャンプだったんだこれが。んでそれから移動をして、探しまくってたんですよ〜。なかなか見つかんないんだわ、これが。なかなか大変でね〜。これを皆に教えたいよ。(でも楽しいんだよコレも)

Today, we went to a spot where it took an hour by car. It’s nice to go somewhere different. It’s so exciting searching for a nice spot. It's so much fun. Today’s agenda was to hit some pillow lines and Shota and Takumi did some awesome cliff drops. Their lines were pretty cool. After that, we moved on in search of a better place but we couldn’t find any. It’s really hard to find a nice spot, I’m telling you. I want you to know this! (Though its fun trying...)

 

03/22/07

 やっほ〜ぅ どもでーす!フィルマーのケイジです。今日もアキ&コニとモービルで撮影に行ってきました〜! 天気は曇り空で視界はそこまで良くないけど、マッシュやピローラインで撮影してました。明るくなるのを待ってのドロップでなかなか大変。でもやれる中でいいのができたと思います。(^^)

2007.03.22 Thursday

Hey, yo!This is Keiji the filmer again.I went filming today with Aki & Koni.It was cloudy but we shot some mushroom lines and pillow lines.We had to wait for the sunlight to drop in, and it was tough but we got some nice shots despite the conditions.

  ↓  ↓

午後は今まで行ったた事のないところを探索してみんなでスタックしまくりでした。(笑)

In the afternoon, we looked for a place where no one had been to.We kept getting stuck again and again!

ハラへった〜〜〜! オレらもやってっどぉ〜!!3月20日天気も良くいい感じで撮影をやってきました。こっちのメンバーは、タロさ、(ビデオカメラマン)タクちゃん、ショウちゃん、ただぼー、楽しかったよ〜!!ショウタとタクミがウケるんですよコレがまた。スノーモービルでドコまでも着いてくるんですよ。(コイツらさすが兄弟って思うね)彼らは、コレからですね!みんな映像を楽しみにしててね〜(写真もね)

2007.03.21 Wednesday

I’m hungry----!We were filming too!!Yesterday, it was nice weather and we did some shooting.Our crew was Taro(video cameraman), Takumi, Shota and me(Tadashi).It was sooo much fun! Shota and Takumi are funny guys.They took forever to double up but they made it! I knew the brothers could do it. It’ll be fun to follow their carreers. Everybody, wait till you see the photos and videos! They are killing it!

 

03/21/07 

よかった〜… 今日は7時半に駐車場に集合!メンバーはアキ&コニ、フォトグラファーのマルさんと自分(ケイジ)。天気もよくてテンションも上がります。(^^)

2007.03.21 Wednesday

What a relief...We gathered at the parking lot at seven thirty in the morning.The members were Aki, Koni, Maru-san, and me(Keiji).The nice weather made us high. (^^)


思っていたよりも雪が深くてでいい感じ!誰もまだ来てないのでモービルで道を作りながらやっと山頂へ到着。しかし始めに狙っていたクリフまで行く頃には、デバンやクリス・ダフィシー、サンドボックスのクルーが続々と集まってきて一気に場所取り合戦が始まります。それにしてもデバン達は早かったな…バタバタっとあっという間にいいところで撮影してました。早くこうなっていかなければ…

The snow was deep and a lot nicer than we thought.No one had come out yet so we had to make our own track to get to the top.But before we arrived to the spot that we had marked out, the other crews like Devun Walsh, Chris Dufficy and Sandbox came one after another and the “spot race” began. Devun’s crew was so fast... They shot a nice spot without wasting any time. We have to be like that...


それにしてもアキ君がドロップした後に雪崩が起きて本当にあせったなぁ…少し流されたけどケガもなく、夕方まで撮影がんばってました。[:パンチ:]

Aki did a jump and it caused an avalanche and he got carried away a little bit. I was so frightened but he wasn’t hurt at all and he continued to film until nightfall.


今日一日いろいろあったけど、みんな無事でモービルにもトラブルもなくてよかった。これが本当に大事だと実感する1日でした。お〜し!おいしいビール飲んで明日もがんばるぞ〜〜[:イケテル:]

We all came back safely and our sleds had no trouble today.I realized the immense values in this.Alright! We will kick ass tomorrow by drinking yummy beer tonight! 

03/20/07

 オフ DAY OFF 

相変わらずパッとしない天気が続くウィスラーから小西がお届けします。今忠の家にいます。忠の家にはたくさんの本やdvdや珍しいスケートのデッキなど、面白いものがたくさんあります。でもテレビでは大相撲春場所が流れています。あ、鶴竜がはたき込みで勝ちました。素早い動きでした。 今日はオフにしました。昨日の夜のセッションでやられたのが痛いってのもあるけど天気が悪かったんです。でも夕方にスケートをやりに行きました。地下駐車場にスケートパークがあるんです。地下っつっても地下3階ですよ。行く時に乗るエレベーターなんか秘密基地に行く感じですよ。リゾートですねー。でもそこは空気が悪いのであんまし長くいると多分病気になります。だからさくっと汗を流して帰ります。スケートのあとは地上にあるスターバックスでコーヒーを飲みます。オフの日はこんな感じで過ごしてます。明日も天気悪そうやなー。でも山行きたい!とりあえず5時起きです。

2007.03.20 Tuesday

This is Koni bringing you some news from Whistler under uninspiring weather.I’m at Tadashi’s place now. There are many books, DVDs, rare skateboard decks and some other interesting things. There's Grand Sumo tournament on TV, wow Kakuryu won by a frontal slap-down. It was quick. I took a day off today. The reasons was that my body got worked in last night's session, and the weather is bad. So I decided to go skateboarding in the evening. There is a skate park underground. “Under ground” it’s not just “Under ground” but on the third floor in the basement. We had to take the elevator to get down there, and it’s like going to a hideout. There is no fresh air so I can’t stay there for a very long time or I will get sick. So I just skate a bit and break a sweat and then take off.After I left the hideout I enjoyed coffee at Starbucks.I spend my days off like this. It seems to be bad weather tomorrow too.I want to go snowboarding!!! I’ll wake up at five o'clock am anyway with my fingers crossed! 

03/19/07 

晴れ待ちの日。Waiting for sunshine.

 どもです!フィルマーのケイジです。アキ&コニとモービルで撮影しにいってきました。

2007.03.19 Monday 

Hey, This is Keiji.I went filming with Aki & Koni with our sleds.

もしかしたら午前中晴れそうな感じだったので早めに出発!他のフィルミングクルーも早くからガソリンスタンドに集まってきます。

We thought that in the morning it would be sunny so we left the house earlier than usual!The other filming crews were also gathering around the gas stand.


しかし、山は思っていたよりも雲が多く視界も悪いので、晴れ間ち晴れ待ちの連続。。。晴れとのうまくタイミングが合わなくてむずかしかったなぁ。。。

But when we got into the backcountry, there were more crowds than I thought and the visibility was very poor. We had to wait for the sunshine to get any filming done. Timing matters. It was tough to find the right timing for filming...

夜はheart houseでアキ&コニ、フォトグラファーのマルさん、タローさん、自分でセッションしてきました [:チョキ:]

That night, Aki & Koni, Maru-san, Taro-san and I did some sessions at the Heart House.


アキ君は50-50からのfs180,bs180をメイク!コニはwoodレールを飛び越えてからまた飛び越えたりおもしろい事にチャレンジしてました。(^^)でも飛び越えようとした最後の冊に引っかかってクラッシュ。。。危ない落ち方だったけど無事で良かった〜… ナイストライ!

Aki did a front side 180 and back side 180 from 50-50.Koni was trying to do some fun tricks like jumping over the wood rail. But he tried to jump over the last wood rail and bailed super hard.He fell dangerously but he was OK. Whew!Nice try, Koni!

  03/18/07 

どうもー 昨日は、朝起きたら雪ががんがん降ってたのですが、何か出来るだろうって事でタクミ ショータ それに、カメラマンのマルさんにオレ(フィルマーのタロー)で家から五分位の所にモービルで撮影に行ってきました。

2007.03.18 Sunday

Hi, there! It’s Taro.(heart’s filmer)When I woke up yesterday morning, it was snowing hard so we(Takumi, Shota, Maru-san and me) thought we could do something so we went to shoot near the house by sled.

 

いろいろ探してマルさんがここどう?って事でタクミ ショータでチェック。

We looked around for a spot and then Maru-san suggested one.Takumi and Shota scoped the area while we prepared for the shoot, then the snow became rain!


よし、やろうと準備してる間に雪がだんだん雨に!雪も、うすいし雨も降ってきたので軽く遊んでもうちょい体にやさしい所を探しに行こうと、もうちょい行ったらこんどは、これです!

Since it turned to rain, we went to look for another easier spot and found this place.


雨の中ビタビタなので、マルさんもオレもガンガン機材が濡れるので結構大変でした。タクミとショータもずぶ濡れになりながらも、いろいろ試しながら滑ってたので、どうにか今日も撮影が出来ました。 タクミ ショータ マルさん、お疲れさんでした!!

Maru-san and I were having a hard time protecting our cameras from the rain.Takumi and Shota tried some tricks although they were wet, and we were able to do some filming because of their effort.Takumi, Shota and Maru-san, you guys did a good job today!

雪がぁぁぁ〜 パウダ〜! 14cmの新雪!ワクワクしながら忠とブラッコムへ滑りに行ってきました! 午後は暖かくなるとの予報だったけど、駐車場についてみるとすでに雨。 『下はダメでも上の方は雪降ってるでしょ〜!』とテンション上げてリフトに乗ってみたけど、残念ながらず〜〜〜っと雨。しかも強風。雨はさすがにツラいなぁ〜〜 [:ニョロ:]せっかく雪降ったのに残念。。。まぁしょうがない。次に期待ですね!

2007.03.17 Saturday

Snow...!!!Powder! 

14cm of new snow!I was so excited about going to Blackcomb with Tadashi!The weather forecast said it was getting warm in the afternoon.But when we got to the parking lot, it was already raining.We reminded ourselves that: ”It is only raining down here, up there it is snowing for sure!” and jumped onto the lift.But unfortunately, it was raining all the way to the top!In addition, there were strong winds.The strong winds were killer.The rain spoiled the long-waited snow...That’s life. I hope we have another snow fall!


でもみんなコンディション悪いなりに楽しんで滑ってきました。(^^)

We had fun in our own way despite the bad snow.


かなり個性的な子を発見。リフト券長っ!(^^)      ウィスラーキッズは雨でも元気!

We found this unique kid. His lift ticket is too long!Whistler kids have a lot of energy even though it’s raining. 

03/16/07 

おりゃ〜 どもです〜アキ&コニ、自分(ケイジ)のクルーはまた別のポイントへ!何かできそうなところを探しまわって撮影してきました。午後は天気悪かったので、最後にモービルジャンプしたりして遊んで帰ってきました。(^^)

2007.03.16 Friday

Yo!Hellooo.My crew (Aki & Koni and me-Keiji) went to another spot.We scoped for a place to shoot some fun tricks.The weather was getting bad in the afternoon so we played with our snowmobiles and came back. (^^)


去年、忠&アキ&マルさん達とモービルキャンプした場所で [:カメラ:]

This is the place where Tadashi, Aki, Maru-san and I camped out with our sleds last year.

 どうもー はい!! 本日もモービルで撮影に行ってきましたー、フィルマーのタローです。メンバーは、タダシ タクミ ショータ オレの4人クルーで山に上がったんですが・・・      またまたやっちまいました!!  今日は、長ーい坂をモービルで登ってる途中で転倒して転がって来るモービルに頭が踏まれたんですが、ヘルメットをかぶってるので助かりました。ヘルメットありがとう!その後自力で立て直ったんですが、なんとそこから無人で坂を直下ってタダシとタクミの方にあり得ない位のスピードで突っ込んでいったんですが、何と奇跡的に途中で止まりました。もし人に当たったりモービルが壊れてたらと思うと何ともなくて助かりました。怪我は、すり傷ていどだったのでラッキーでした。


2007.03.16 Friday

Wassuuuuuuup?This is Taro (filmer).Today’s members were, Tadashi, Takumi, Shota and me.We went up to the mountain and...shi*t! I fell!I bailed when I was driving up a long slope and my sled rolled down over my head! Thank God for my helmet! THANK YOU MY HELMET!After the sled hit me, the sled went down hill all by itself and ran straight toward Tadashi and Takumi with unbelievable speed.Thankfully the sled stopped before it hit Tadashi and Takumi. It was miracle!I was worried about my sled hurting my friends, or what if the sled got broken?! Luckily, nothing bad happened and my wound was only a scratch. 

その後撮ったのがこんなとこでした。

After that we filmed here.

 

タダシ、タクミ、ショータともビタビタいろんなトリックを合計9本飛び本日も、かなーり極上の生ライブを見せてもらいました。モービルにひかれながらも来たかいがありました!!ありがとうライダーの3人。 一日一日の生ライブがDVDになるのが本当に自分も楽しみです!!みなさん、もうしばらくお待ちください。 あと、最後にデッカイ雪崩に巻き込まれた3人です。

  Tadashi, Takumi and Shota did really nice tricks for a total of nine times and it was cool to see them ride in person! It was worth getting hit by my sled!! Thank you riders.I’m looking forward to editing this footage for everyone to see in our DVD!!Ladies and Gentlemen, please wait a little bit more.Thanks!! Three riders were caught in an avalanche.

  

03/15/07 

いぇぃ! どもでーす。同じくハートでフィルマーやってるケイジです!今日はアキ&コニ、フォトグラファーのマルさんと撮影に行ってきましたよ〜久しぶりに冷え込んだので、ハイウェイではスピンして道路脇に落ちてる車がちらほら。通行止めやらなんかスゴかったです。 天気はかなり良くていい一日になるかと思いきや、またやってしまいましたぁぁ…モービルにトラブルがありかなり凹まされました。 でもマルさんやみんなに助けてもらいっていい撮影する事ができて良かったです。(^^;)

2007.03.15 Thursday

Yo! What’s up? This is Keiji the heart film’s filmer.I went shooting with Aki, Koni, and Dice-K Maru today.It had been a while since it was cold and today was a very cold day so there were some cars on the side of the highway because they had slipped on the ice.Some areas of the highway were closed. It was pretty bad. The weather was awesome so that I thought it’s going to be a great day, but... it wasn’t. My sled had trouble and I felt disappointed and sad. At the end of the day, I got a good shot with Maru-san and everybody’s help.


アキ&コニAki & Koni 

03/15/07 

こんちわー HELLO! どーもー、ハートでフィルマーやってるタローです。最近ウィスラーに来て撮影&PCに夢中です!!大体は、まず朝撮影に行って夕方帰って来てシャワー浴びて飯食って、お疲れビール飲みながらPCしてぐっすり寝る感じでやってます。今heart houseにはアキ コニ、それに最近PCを手に入れていじくりまくってるショータ&昨日来たばかりのタクミにオレの5人で住んでて部屋はこんな感じで楽しくやってます。

2007.03.15 Thursday

Hellooo!This is Taro the heart film’s filmer/editor.I came to Whistler and now I’m crazy about filming and my MAC!!Recently, my life consists of shooting and coming back in the evening, taking a shower, drinking some beers, do some work on my MAC, and then going to bed.In the heart house, there are Aki, Koni, Shota (who got a new MAC lately), and Takumi, who joined us yesterday and me. It’s nice and comfortable.

今日は、朝モービルのエンジンをかけようと鍵を探したら ”どこにも無い”あれ、無くしちゃった!! また、やらかしちまった!!天気もいいのでどうしても山に上がりたかったので、車で片道40分かけてモービル屋に行き速攻で鍵を作ってもらって戻るなんて事になって出だしが遅くなってみなさんに迷惑かけてしまい反省してる現在です。すんません!それで今日は、タダシ タクミ ショータにバートンのカメラマンのジェフに途中参加のオレでこんな感じで

In the morning, I was about to start my sled and I couldn't find my key! Damn, I did it again!!It was so nice today so I must go up to the mountain to shoot so I went to the snow mobile shop and spent 40 min. each way (by car) to make a spare key quickly and come back. I kept everybody waiting in the beginning of the day. I’m so sorry everybody!Today’s members were Tadashi, Takumi, Shota, Jeff- (Burton’s cameraman), and me.

  

滑った場所はこんな感じ         The places were like this.

 

でした。他にもいろいろ滑ったので、これもまた映像が楽しみです。まだまだ撮影続くんで、明日から気を引き締めてがんばりまーす。

We rode some other places so I’m looking forward to checking my film.Filming and shooting are far from finished, so I am keeping my spirits high and enjoying everyday and the challenges that I face. 

03/14/07

 HELLO, This is SHOTA!

はじめて書き込みました!おとといウィスラーに着きました!

This is my first time to write in the Heart Film's blog!I came back to Whistler the day before yesterday!


昨日はバックカントリーにタダシくん、アキくん、コニタン、バートンのカメラマンのジェフ カーティス、ハートのフィルマーの太郎兄貴、刑事くんと行きました!

I went to the back country to snowmobile and snowboard with Tadashi, Aki, Koni, Jeff Curtis (Burton photographer), heart film’s filmer Taro, and Keiji yesterday.


天気は湿った雪でスノーボードしずらかったのですが、ピローラインをみんなで撮影して帰ってきました!

The snow was wet and little bit hard but we were able to shot some pillow lines.


今日はオフだったんで明日はガンバリま〜す!

Today was a day off but tomorrow, I’ll go kill it! 

03/09/07

 うぃっすら〜 WHISTLER!!! 雪だ〜!なかなか寒いです。[:ゆき:]今日は山へは上がらずに映像とかまとめてたりしてましたが、明日はちょっと滑ってこようと思ってます。 

Snoooooow! It’s cold in Whistler.I didn’t go to the mountain today because I was editing parts of the film.Tomorrow, I will go snowboarding. 

昨日から新作ビデオを編集するノブ君とも合流し、明日はアキ君、コニ、ショータ、フィルマーのタローさんがカナダ入りです。またにぎやかになりそう!楽しみだ〜

やほーぅ! ケイジでーす。1ヶ月ぶりにカナダに戻ってきました〜! 入国審査で止められて、かなり足止めくらってました。。。2時間以上待たされてもしかしたら入れないの…??そんな不安が頭によぎったけど、何とか審査官にハンコを押してもらえて無事入国!人もいっぱいで、面倒だから行っていいよ!みたいな感じだったな〜。(苦笑) 飛行機は偶然にもフォトグラファーのマルさんやレッドアイのシブさん、中井、フミオ、ハク君などが一緒でピックリ。みんなカナダ楽しみでウズウズしてましたね。 

2007.03.08 Thursday

Yee-ha! It’s Keiji!I came back to Canada after a month!I was stuck for over two hours in immigration… I was worried that I couldn’t get in to Canada, but I could!There was a huge crowd so the immigration officer gave me the look of evil and then let me through. Dice-K, Shibu from the Red eye, Nakai, Fumio, and Haku were on my plane. They were super jonesing to get back riding in Whistler!


出発前の成田で。At the Narita-airport.


夕暮れ時に通ったバンクーバーにあるスタンレーパーク。Stanley park in Vancouver. 今日は暖かいみたいだったけど、まだまだ雪はあるっすよ〜!楽しみ楽しみ〜〜[:イヒヒ:]

Today was warm but there is still so much snow. I’m excited!

I hadn't gone snowboarding in such a long time… There was a snow storm.In the morning, I checked my fortune on a TV program and mine was the worst.I should've listened to the TV because it sure wasn’t my day:( Bear no relation to this topic, I will change my cell phone tomorrow!I hope something good is going to happen tomorrow.

 03/05/07 moon park 03 

どもども!フィルマーのケイジです今日は新しい機材を求めて、秋葉原のマニアックなビルを探索してきました〜 [:見る:]か〜な〜り、アヤしいお店がいっぱいでしたよ。中野ブロードウェイ(知ってるかな?)をさらにマニアックにした感じで、アブなそうな人達でいっぱいだったな。。。(苦笑)


 2007.03.05 Mondaymoon park 03 

Hi there! This is Keiji - the filmer.Today, I went to AKIHABARA looking for some new camera gear.There were many geeky shops like NAKANO broadway (did you know?) or maybe it is more maniac.People in AKIHABARA are quite characters! (^o^;) 

そんな話はおいといて、先日のmoon park sessionの追加リポート〜 [:カメラ:] 

Besides AKIHABARA, here is another report from the Moon Park Session. 

このセッションは始めに設置してあったヒップを作りなおして始まりました!アイテムの形はスケートパークにあるスパインみたいな感じで、正面クォーターが2個くっついたようなイメージです。(説明ヘタでスイマセン。。。) 

We remade the hip and started a session.The shape of the item was like spine at a skate park.It’s like two quarter pipes stacked.Can you imagine? Sorry for the poor explanation…


何をしでかすかわからないコースケ。bs.ロデオ。 Unpredictable Kosuke. Back side Rodeo.


高さがハンバなかった忠のfs360 Tadashi’s front side 360 was extremely high.


コニのアンダーフリップ。この後ワンフットもしてました。 Koni’s under flip. He rode with one-foot too.


スタイリッシュにでっかく空に舞っていたマグン。

Fs360 Stylish front side 360. Magun was like flying in the sky. 

きれいな夕焼けの中、みんなこのセクションで熱くなってました。(^^) ビデオ、雑誌ともにmoon park特集お楽しみに〜! 

Against the beautiful sunset, they were excited. (^^)Please check out the Moon Park feature in the magazine and in the video!

Live Show!! Helloooooo! This is Tadashiiiiii.I went to the Laughin' Nose’s live show! It was so cool! I’m telling you!The members were me, Aki, Taro, Aniki, Ishida, Dai.Aki was so excited!If Zizo was there, I can imagine that he would have been super crazy too!!Anyway, it was really fun.I’m very happy that I could see such a cool live show before I went back to Canada.

2007.03.03 Saturday

-from Tadashi- Yo, what’s up!? Everybody snowboarding??Before I go back to Canada, I went to the local mountain called “Crico Snowpark” at Yonezawa, Yamagata.It was a nice day of chilling and drinking beers and snowboarding. It was great!!! I gave Heart stickers away to everybody. I met some old guys who were hill climbing and had a party with them.They seemed very happy to drink beers!


03/02/07 moon park 02 

どもです!ハートフィルムスでフィルマーをやっているケイジです。 2月26日から28日まで猪苗代スキー場で行われたMOON PARKかな〜り濃い内容でしたよ〜!天気にも恵まれ、忠達のアイディアでカタチになっていったパークではかなりいいセッションが出来てよかったです! ムーンパークは完成という文字はなく、アイディア次第でどんどん変化していきます。そこまで広くない空間にたくさんの面白アイテム設置。最終日は自分もカメラバックを置いて楽しんできました。個人的には5連続ジャンプが面白かったな〜![:イケテル:] ライダーのみんなは、前の人と同じグラブをしたり、全部バックフリップしたり、かなり楽しんでたみたい。全部バックフリップはさすがに目が回るって言ってました。(笑)

moon park 02 

Hey, this is Keiji - the filmer for Heart Films. The Moon Park Session held from Feb.26th to 28th at Inawashiro was a hit!We were lucky enough to have our session in good weather at the Moon Park. We finished our shoot but we hope to continue with Moon Park and add extra features and keep making our ideas into reality. It is not a big space but there are many fun items. On the last day, I put aside my camera bag and had fun riding too!I liked the feature with the five jumps in a row. It was super fun to see all the riders do a whole bunch of tricks and one up each other and hit the jump all at once. It was crazy! The riders said that their heads were spinning doing so many back-flips! 

03/02/07 moon park

 の帰りに 3日間のmoon park sesionの帰りがけに、アキ、ショータ、ヒロミで撮影してきましたが、ヒロミは足が本調子じゃないので今回はサポートしてくれました。スポットは、なぜか最近専門誌も出てる廃墟。夜はかなり怖そうな場所でしたが、昼間で天気も良くロケーションも最高!遊び上手なアキがスポットを選んでそれをアレンジして遊ぶショータでのライディングにヒロミのサポート。三人の遊び上手なライダーのおかげで今日も素晴らしいショットが撮れました。 

2007.03.02 Friday

On the way back from the Moon Park… We stopped to shoot on the way back from the Moon Park Session.Aki, Shota, and Hiromi were there. Hiromi wasn’t in her best condition so she cheered us on.The spot was a deserted house. It's a spot that would be super scary at night, but under the fine sky it was a nice place to shoot. Aki chose the spot and Shota riigged it up and Hiromi cheered! The three riders had a fun time capturing some interesting images. 


03/01/07 moon park 

猪苗代スキー場での三日間の"moon park sesion " の撮影を無事に終えました。

今回の"moon park sesion " は、布施忠のパークのイメージとそれを形にしたbrave project、滑るheart films のライダーと撮るheart filmer,Transworld Japan&zizo,そしてTransworld Us&Dice-K などでの協力でかなーり素晴らしいセッションになりました。 集まったみなさんお疲れでした!! そして、DVD&写真 乞うご期待!!! 

The Moon Park Session was incredible! Tadashi Fuse’s vision for a fun park was built and created by “brave projects."All the “heart films” riders rode great and the filmers captured some sick shots for the DVD, HEART FILMS vol. 2!Transworld US cameraman Dice-K Maru and TWS Japan photographer, ZIZO, were there shooting the nonsense.Special thanks to everybody who came to the park!!The DVD and the photos will exceed your expectations!Don’t miss it!

 Well the season is over, the snow is almost gone and out come the shorts and sandals. The tanning lotion will flow and Beer-leagues will run on Kokanee, Coors, and Canadian, until its all gone and we can no longer stand in the bating box!!! Blue Bridge parties will start up as they have for generations and the girls will be out dressed to impress. Going golfing with my buddies! Taking my homeys to the river and throw Frisbees, and swim till the sun goes down. To have quiet conversations with someone close with only a slow breeze to interrupt... memories never forgotten. But still the days on my calender have already started to count down, to that time when everything is white and P-tex touches snow. That my friends, is my Graceland! My Summer!
 
      Forever Shred!!
