09 Alterna release named...

After much debate and countless names presented.  We have named our Alterna 09 release Elektro. We will post a blog shortly as to how we came up with the name and show you our inspriation for this title.  I guess spending a bunch of time in Europe definetely helped with this choice of title.  Last year we were drinking Knockout beer in India this year we came up with Elektro also on a feature trip that will be highlighted in our film.

Spring Grouse Shoot Day 1...

Day one of our Spring Session at Grouse Mountain turned out to be another amazing experience.  We almost had our entire crew out for this session plus a ton of friends that we invited to join this stress free super fun session.  Some of the other invitees were Mikey Rencz, Eero Niemela, Wiley T, Beau Bishop, Barry Hartman even currently injured Chris Dufficy joined us for some good times.

Thanks again to Jeff Silcock, Chuck @ PYP and the entire Grouse Staff  in helping make this years session another great success.

Big shout out to Phil Tifo for providing us with some behind the scenes photos.

2 Picture deal with FUEL TV

We just signed a 2 picture deal with FUEL TV so make sure to look for our release of KNOCKOUT and our 2009 Film which will be named very shortly.  Currently we have Apples & Oranges playing on Insane Cinema which is where you will find the rest of Alterna's Films.

Stay tuned for more on our 2009 release... Finally we have a name!!!!

Vera on Fuel TV...

Here is a clip from the Dailey Habit with Vera Janssen reping Alterna quite nicely for our friends the yankees at Fuel TV.

It's been crazy

It's been a crazy past couple of weeks - Ullr has blessed us with snow, and blue skies; but just as quickly as they come - they disappear. . .

We've been making the best of our winter though, having frequent interior trips, and plenty of Whistler backcountry sessions! We've recently teamed up with Sims rider Gaetan Chanut, Billabong rider Benji Ritchie, and Nikita rider Vera Janssen, adding a few new faces to already familiar Alterna Films Crew.

Matt Belzile has returned back from the "Ante Up" at C.O.P. in Calgary after placing fifth and winning some money!

Tadej Valentan has just left Whistler to embark on a European trip with outerwear sponsor Horsefeathers ! Look out for him on the road - I think he took his new bike!

Belzy & the Breakers

Here are a few pics from a rail mission with Belzile in early Jan. Belzy slayed the rail and we had a few kids who were break dancers in training put on a clinic with some moves to inspire our late night extravaganza.

Dufficy in K Town

Welcome to our 2009 Blogspot we will be uploading images and videos throughout the season to keep you well informed about our 2009 release.

Here are a few pics from an early rail mission with Chris Dufficy in his home town of Kamloops B.C. Many thanks to DUffs parents Kaz and Tony for their amazing hospitality and fine meals.


We got kicked out of a few rails and had some time on our hands. As you can see cabin fever kicked in and Geoff Andriuk made the best our spare time in K town with a few images of Duffs ever expanding body art.
