ESPN just published their monthly action sports ZOOM gallery and I’m very pleased to be apart of the June online issue.  The image was taken during my first trip to Haines this past winter.  Not a lot of people really know or realize some of the lengths or exposure you put your self in to get shots in Alaska.  In this particular zone we were lucky enough to get some last minute insider info on an angle closer to the face that required an intense billy goat over a knife ridge, where falling was not an option.  The hike to the angle took us about 30 minutes and I was pretty puckered the whole time. But Nico (Nolan) LP filmer and myself finally found a comfortable spot on the meter wide ridge and got ready for the amazing show in front of us. The crew slaughtered face riding three lines each and we ended with up some amazing images and footage.  So thanks to every one who helped make it all possible… Will Wissman, SEABA, Nico Nolan, Levitation Project, Wyatt Caldwell, Matt our guide and Coulter!

“Haines offers an abundance of eagles, salmon and most importantly SPINES! After a long day of milky and gray we got the call of an evening glass off. Faster that you could ring the bell we were bumped out on what felt like the edge of the world taking in the most amazing views of our lives. Chris Coulter leaves his signature on one of the sexiest spine runs west of the Chilkat.” – Andrew Miller

Recent Gnarly Clothes Ad run in April issue of Blisss Magazine. Mr Nick Russell joining the ranks of the Gnarly Squad. Unfortunately right after the first photo was taken Nick hiked up for another round and blew his knee out. Already on the road to recovery I’m sure he will be back in no time stronger than ever! Heal up fast bud!
