“Most of the time it requires a lot of extra effort to capture an amazing image, but occasionally it just
comes too easily.This shot was one of those effortless moments. Of course, workingwith an athlete like
Eric increases the chances of a successful shot. Getting to the spot was straightforward and snow conditions
were good.The hardest part was skiing the line –Eric was skiing one boot in 'walk' mode, having just
broken the latchmechanism on his prototype boot. Anyonewho's ever forgotten to switch their boots out
of walkmode can appreciate how awkward it is, yet here he is, still givin'er andmaking the line look
easy, andmakingmy job of capturing the image an easy one.Thanks Eric!”
