Incase you haven’t noticed, I’ve been busy lately. For the most part, Redhat has been taking up the majority of my time, but I’ve also had time to launch a website for my Dad’s artwork and do a bit of traveling.
Since my last post I’ve made my way to Atlanta, Boston, Charlotte, NYC, and back home to the Outer-Banks. Now I’m back in Raleigh, the weather is amazing, and I’m ready to skate. So check out these photos and I’ll go make some videos asap. Read More

I picked up a Bower 8mm fisheye lens the other day and took it on a couple test runs. So far, from a video perspective, I’m more than impressed with this lens. It’s very wide and very well constructed. I feel like this thing can take a solid beating.
I don’t have a lot of experience with professional still photography, but in my opinion, this lens is great in that realm too. It’s very sharp and produces some great color. The biggest flaw that I’ve noticed is some slight chromatic aberration around the edges at full res but once the image is scaled down, it looks fine. It flares up quite a bit when pointed directly at the sun, but I’m guessing that’s normal.
It was $400 with a really good insurance plan. I’m counting on this lens getting hit by a board at some point, so the insurance is nice. Can anybody compare the Bower to the Samyang and Sigma counterparts? I’d love to know the difference between the three.
Video starring: Brett Abramsky, Jed Shooter, Sturgil Horn

A collection of some of my favorite clips from behind the scenes of Issue 20. I included some footage of us using our gear, so if you have any questions about that, just leave a comment. Enjoy!

I’ve been getting a lot of equipment-related questions lately, so I figured it would be helpful to write a quick article on what gear we have been using and why we are completely happy with our current setup. Read More

In case you haven’t heard, Raleigh is a damn cool city. And if you’ve been wondering why the site was down for so long, it’s for that reason. We’ve been enjoying the hell out of this place.
Now that we’ve got our new camera gear (much more on that later), we’ll be happily documenting and reporting all of the fun we have, skateboarding and beyond. This video is a glimpse of what’s been happening in our neck of the woods. Enjoy.
Skaters: Sam Buxton, Jed Shooter, Cameron Keene, Dirt Diggler, Travis Knapp-Prasek, Justin Brock

Ok, here’s the skinny. I released a teaser video for Film & Destroy on Post22.com recently, and the feedback came back as a unanimous “Looks cool! What the hell is it?”. If you were one of those confused viewers, then don’t worry. I didn’t even know what I was creating. I was just creating.
