Old photos don’t have to live on the hard drive forever.

Same shot, totally different feel once you re-edit it with your current style. Wild how much a photo can transform over the years.

The word is getting out 👀

Don't take it from us, listen to what our customers have to say. 🫡

A coating that underpromises and overdelivers speaks for itself.

If you've got a vehicle that you want to protect, the answer is an SPS Graphene Coating for several years of gloss, hydrophobicity, and protection.

Thanks for getting the gloss sauce on your new Tundra, @lil2zesty!

I still remember the first time I went to Best Buy to pick up the original @gopro and started messing around with @ydnar026 . Jumping into 4 degree lakes, ski edits, mountain bike edits.

Fast forward to 2020. Covid shut the world down. No more skiing, no more biking. So I went back to Best Buy for my first real camera, a Canon t7i. Mostly an excuse to get outside and shoot landscapes. Those days led me to some cool people, including a group hike with @coledemarco where I realized how much the human element changes a photo. Also realized big group hikes weren’t really for me.

Back to @thecamerastore to upgrade to a @sonyalpha , up the shutter speed, and start capturing what I actually love. Action sports. That changed everything. You can’t shoot action sports without subjects. I had @_chris_rides_bikes and @tm_dirtbag , but I wanted more impact. So I reached out to @woodridgemtb , met @kelan.cleland and @jmphotography_yyc , and started shooting their jersey release.

Around the same time I realized photos alone weren’t enough. I wanted the whole story, not just a single frame. That led to short documentaries, sharing the final days of Bline bike park, the stories of @theflannelcrew , and eventually joining @austentanney on Strain. Two years. Worth every bit of it. Breakout Film of the Year at @if3mtnbike .

This summer: Dirt Diaries at @crankworx . Backcountry with @braillemountaininitiative . The enduro of @boobsontubes .

Six years in. Can’t wait to see what the next six hold.

The end of ski season means it's time to get the bikes out once again! Hopefully we can get even more epic shots than these this summer

👌ONE HELL OF A NIGHT! 👌

From the bottom of my heart, thankyou so much to everyone that came out to the Global Premiere of STRAIN. I’m still buzzing we sold out a 350 person cinema @cmcinemas10 and the electric energy everyone brought to the show. 🙏🏻

Could not have asked for a better crowd to kickoff the 2026 riding season with. 🥹

I love everything bikes, and am so greatful for all the local shops and sponsors of the event. We were able to give away over $5000.00 in prizes thanks to these absolute beauties who continue to support the local scene.

SUPPORT THE LEGENDS! ❤️

We are proud to support and sponsor the Flannel Crew's new movie, Strain. Tonight is about more than just an exciting mountain bike film; it’s a pivotal moment for the local riding community. It’s a chance for friends to connect and for a sold-out audience to witness a project built on sacrifice, creativity, and a belief in something much larger than ourselves.

The common ground we share with the Flannel Crew isn’t found in social media posts or sponsorships. It’s rooted in the raw dedication of pursuing an ever-evolving dream while supporting each other's drive to leave a lasting impact on our communities. What Austen, Joey, and Bryant started years ago has evolved into a creative space where the power of friendship creates new opportunities to share the magic of two wheels.

We’ve seen this firsthand through their help with our recovery efforts and the Legacy Trails Project, but the story that hits home the most for us is Tristan's. Welcoming him into their team and creative space has been nothing short of incredible, and watching his creative evolution has been astonishing. From his humble beginnings of reaching out to local rider Scott Thornhill to expand his mountain biking photography portfolio, to helping us film extra footage for a tribute edit to my late father—set to a core-rocking song by our friends Psychlona—his journey has been amazing. He went from making short documentaries and sharing meaningful stories in the local riding scene to now helping make a Flannel Crew movie!

Tonight is more than just a movie premiere; it’s a celebration of friendship, connection, and creativity on a grand scale! We can’t wait to see the finished product, the vision Austen had for the story, and the work of all the great people who sacrificed their time to continue evolving this dream.

Stoked for Tonight!

Let's go!
