Sacramento Skimfest 2011

This year I attended the Sacramento Skimfest held annually at Paradise Beach. The first time I saw this event was five years ago and I can say it has come a long way even in that short time. Now in it's 15th year, it is the longest running flatland skim boarding event and is seen as a model around the globe. This contest attracts riders from all over the US and also Canada and New Zealand. Read the full write up by Brian Kniveton over at Inland Skim Movement.

This was an opportunity to self assign a video project for myself. I shot the whole thing with my Canon 7d with a 70-200. This is the same combo I use to shoot family portraits and almost everything else. Did I just mention family portraits? Christmas is coming.
