Recording sixteen hours a day

I am working shifts as miner in China, haha.

Today is the first day without holding a cam, since who knows when. We have been doing various stuff for Untouched (check the blog on our webpage) and shooting rails with Jibrothers and Vogel locals. George found a Mecca for street rails somewhere in Austria and we have been going back for three days. Night shoots, day shoots, exercising German… it is all part of the process. One thing we realized is that Austria is so far ahead from our post transition state, just because of their positive attitude towards things and a will to communicate and make compromises. No unnecessary yelling and threatening, just clear common sense and some effort on your side and you can ride a spot for days. Loving it!
