What up guys?!

I was involved with a super rad project with snowmobiler rider Levi Lavallee. I lived with him for 6 weeks while he learned the double backflip on a snowmobile! I just got back from Asssspen last night. So rad to see him toss it out there. Anyway here's a piece that Red Bull put together with the footage I shot! I didn't see the stuff on TV but I'm told they had some stuff on there don't know what exactly they used? Anyone see it?!

Very cool. How cold was it out there? Didn't have to run a kata bag or anything to keep your cams warm?

What up guys!

Thanks for checkin' it out!

Watson: I've known Levi for a couple years and also do a lot of work with Red Bull. He tossed an invite out to me to come shoot and I jumped at the chance!

Benbixby: Nope, didn't use kata bags or covers for any of it, cameras held up fine! It was cold as heck though! I think we maybe had 4-5 days above zero. Pretty gnarly, started most days down arond -40 actual temp. If it hit -10 that was a warm day. hahaha

Hey, I watched that on tv. When is the next attempt? I'm a tornado chaser from kc and have always thought about submitting tornado chasing to the x-games :)
