places that only the great Northwest of Washington has to offer. One shot that was on Mikes “to do” list was something artistic with the giant Horizon Lines ship in the background. With his pursuit to push the sport and artistic ability, his idea to capture another great NW photo was to lay down a huge spray off the bow of the Ho-

ON BOARD
TOM FOOSHEE
BULL SHOALS, AR
“This was my very first set and double-up on my VIDEO
completely new Liquid Force signature board, the Tex.
It was one of my favorite sets of my life as the stoke was at an all time high for this long-awaited session. After months and months of testing new shapes, its was time for a shred on the new, final, completed stick. It was perhaps the most fun set of my life as I fell in love with my new whip. Shooting that go down was the icing on the cake. Between the butter water conditions at Bull Shoals and the amazing double ups and driving, this was a session I will never forget.” —Tom Fooshee
