One trip to rule them all....

On our travels we've hit some amazing spots but if pushed to name one trip that stood out above any other, it probably has to be the Boost trip which saw New York, Las Vegas and Los Angeles being hit within a 10 day period. Vegas in itself is a complete mindfuck but if you only get one opportunity to go in your lifetime, grab it. In this pic we were doing a shoot at the famous Las Vegas sign on the main strip and at times like these, we had to pinch ourselves and ask if this was really happening. Although all looks good here, we were in fact in a sombre mood after witnessing an old lady being killed on a cross section just 10 feet away from our vehicle. As she crossed the road, the driver of the vehicle that hit her was on a cell phone and jumped the lights. This resulted in her being clipped at about 30 miles an hour and being spun in the air doing a 720 degree spin. When she landed, she was totally motionless and on the news later that day, was pronounced dead. At times like these, everything is put into context and you get to appreciate what you have......One life. Pictured from left to right - Blue, Asid, Sticky and ez
