Andrew Topa



Andrew Topa, the new-ish kid on the block... he is 13 and he absolutely shreds. This quick afternoon edit doesn't do him justice, nor does for my camera work. I put this piece together in an hour. Enjoy!

PS. He recently moved to Surprise, AZ because of Family, and he will continue to Shred the Gnar where ever he goes.

- Kai Brabo - College of Marin Student from Novato

- Ryan Layne - Seattle Central Student from San Rafael

When:

This project started out in February, 2012

Why:

The simple joy of riding and recording our events, has brought us to a sense of living and accomplishment in ways. We decided to contribute as one collaborative to make our work known as one.

How:

We have been planning, filming, photographing, traveling and editing our work since we bought our DSLR's back in High School. We have not had very much formal schooling and lessons for our work, but rather we learned by doing, experiencing and taking in feed back from our viewers and amongst ourselves. We believe that we can accomplish anything we put our heads to and experience is the best way we know how.
