Above Below: Barcelona Photo Gallery

You've got to go to Barcelona at least once for a full length, right?

23 Feb 2015

Classic Dak.

Dak is so dialled it makes my brain spin sometimes. This spot was super busy with cars, it was about to rain, and there were murmurs of police on route, but in true Dakota style this nollie pegs noz was in the bag in no time.

Doesn't matter which way you go in Barca, you'll find a spot…

Benny L taking a lesson from AK and getting up high for the chill spot.

This was the result of attempt one on Dak's Macba noz to noz; the security was not a happy chappy. Needless to say, Dak waited a while and made it happen, just before the same guy and a colleague started wheeling out barriers, much to their dismay.

Gang signs.

Post backwards pegs turndown stoke.

Just your average morning at Macba…

Dak - down but not out.

Ben Lewis - beyond steezy ice hard 180.

Everyone probably owes Zunda a brick of cigs after the whole Above Below project was completed. Ben dips in one a smoke and a McDonalds beer after his epic ice hard 180.

Dakota taking a run at "that out-ledge" while Creasy most likely jives Nando some more.

AHHHHHH!

Breakfast.

Ben and Zunda survey the area.

Dakota Roche - fakie pegs to turndown like it's an everyday occurrence.

Dan Lacey - stoked.

Rich and Nando at work, mid mongo.

Nose feeble hard 180 from the tech lord.

Lacey - can't keep a good man down.

Frustration.

Doesn't get much better - Lacey, ice 270 snappy as you like.

Celebration > Moderation

Ed Zunda, Smith nose bars as seen on his DVD cover.

It doesn't get better than shooting Dakota wallrides, especially when it's short, high and obstructed with a rail.

Well, it's probably no surprise we made a stop in Barcelona during the filming of Above Below - I mean, how can you not? "Barcelona had its day, all the spots are done…" I'm sure you've heard it before, but quite frankly, if you take a group of some of the world's best riders there and set them loose you're going to come back with some fresh and most likely killer clips. What I love about Barcelona is it feels like a second home to myself and a lot of the guys on that particular trip. We've all spent so much time there it seems like everyone kind of does their own thing to a certain extent. For example, if you aren't ready in the morning, there's a 95 percent chance everyone will leave without you - that's just how it is. I mean you know where Forum is, right? Here's a quick look at what we got up to out there, in between late nights walking Las Ramblas and losing various members of the group.

If you missed them, you can look through the other Above Below galleries here: Berlin / Tokyo / NYC / LA /Nashville

Unless you've been sleeping under a rock for the past few months you would have seen Above Below by now, but if not make sure you get over to iTunes and pick up a copy. You'll be helping out the ‘Road 2 Recovery’ charity at the same time too!
