Hood River Super D 2011



I spent this past weekend shooting the Hood River Super Downhill for VitalMTB. I'm pretty stoked with the images seeing how challenging the event was to shoot. It's not your typical race. Trying to cover 7 miles of downhill track is almost impossible in a day, but thankfully the shuttles were running all day and I could be dropped off not too far from the course. It's also a different group of competitors from typical downhill so I was not as familiar with the riders, so it required more research than normal.

I've had a really good response from the editors already and the article seems to be generating some traffic. Check it out a few of my favorites and the rest of the Vital story- HERE
