I joined Forum for a stint down unda this past summer. Andreas Wiig, Pat Moore, Jake Welch, Austen Sweetin, Alek Oestreng provided the shredding and entertainment. Good times, good crew. There’s a full feature on our trip to New Zealand in the April issue. The landscapes are so dramatic down there I had to share some more shots.

Lake Ohau. No Photoshop here, that’s the true color. The glacial mineral deposits pour downstream and create vibrant lakes. PHOTO: Ben Gavelda
