Video: Being at the Top of Action Sports Photography
It is a special time of the year when changing seasons challenge shooters beyond their subjects and equipment. Some move with the weather, chasing dirt and snow, while others stay put and bounce back and forth as the sceneries change. Mattias Frederiksson takes the latter, working through the transition and keeping his cameras on overdrive as the conditions go from dirt to snow and back again.

So sick to see people just doing what they love in life. These videos always make me remember to seek out what I love in life.

One of the rare moments where you sit and realise money isn't all that important in the grand scheme of things

Also, I like how proud his voice gets when he says he is an action sports photographer it really drives it home to me that this is his calling in life and he knows it

BIG props to all photographers and filmers. Heavy, expensive equipment, shot after shot, behind the scenes editing. Thankless job but these guys deserve a lot of credit for all the stoke they put out year round.

Agreed. Everybody sees all the gnarly images with no idea of what it took to get it. Hanging with pro riders ain't easy... which is why so many successful shooters were once pro athletes.

I got an F-stop bag this winter (tilopa) best bag I've ever owned. I use it for a camera bag and just a hiking pack! Well worth the investment and the guys at Fstop have great customer service which makes it that much better!

Welcome to the club 
I'd love to get a tilopa one day for a bit more space - have had a loka for a couple of years and despite using it extensively in the mountains it's still going strong. quality packs

A Nikon D4 and a good quality FX zoomlens, that's about the same price as a Genius LT and then some...
