Words and video by Leonardo Dalessandri. "Over than 3500 km traveled in 20 days, capturing landscapes from the bluish tones of Pamukkale to the warm ones of Cappadocia, the all passing by a great variation of colors, lights and weathers through six other cities. I've crossed Cappadocia, Pamukkale, Ephesus, Istanbul, Konya; and tasted baklava, kunefe, doner, the turkish tea; and got the chance to meet the soul of Turkey, its people.. and got their smiles and their hospitality. This is Turkey lived by me from north to south, and I hope you enjoy it".
026 | Building everyone's dream.
#inspiration
In the Spring of 2014 a small group of close friends broke ground on a building project in Skamania County, Washington in the Columbia River Gorge. Their primary endeavour was a multi-platform tree house, but also included a skate bowl and a wood fired soaking tub as well. The crew came from all over the country and from a variety of backgrounds. Some were professional carpenters, others learned on the job, gaining experience along the way. The Cinder Cone is Foster Huntington’s short film that documents this year-long process of building his dream home with this community of tight knit friends. A Farm League Original. Directed by Foster Huntington. Edited by Jess Gibson.

019 | Welcome elsewhere.
#inspiration
Craig Anderson is one of the great surfers of his time. He shot to a place of being impossible to ignore immediately following Modern Collective and has hummed along in perfect rhythm ever since. Welcome Elsewhere is a curation of his most recent time spent on the road, through Tahiti, deep Australia, Indonesia and more, exploring Craig's love of being in the jungle or going mysto in the desert. The real star here is the Kandui's century swell footage we've all been waiting for, on which he rode a 5'4" Hypto Krypto and much virality afterwards, but there's plenty of other pleasant surprises in here. This is, as you might expect, a study in pure style. Film by Kai Neville.

016 | Red Bull Ragnarok - Norway.
#work
The name 'Ragnarok' comes from an incident in Norwegian mythology, describing the last battle between the good and evil Gods, where only the heroes of the battlefield survive. Red Bull Ragnarok imitates this myth in the respect that only a mere few snow-kite heroes will succeed. Endurance is paramount, and only the toughest riders will make it to the finish line. A group of our friends had the plan to join this race, then we came up with the plan to join them to capture the event on camera.
