While covering WSC 2012, I had the opportunity to meet, and shoot with, one of Australia's biggest snowboarding talents, Mr Nate Johnstone. Riding all the way from the early qualifying rounds, Nate ended up in 5th place, a respectable effort considering the quality of the field. He definitely impressed a lot of people, going huge throughout the event and saved his best till last, putting down a double cork 10 on the last hit of his final run... Though I haven't seen either, both Australian Snowboarding and Mens Fitness ran one of my shots of Nate following the his performance... Here's some of my favourites from the 10 days of riding...
Good luck for the coming northern winter Nate!
