Scott Aichner anticipation a Ventura-based bodyboarder with uncluttered wrestler’s neck, torso and hams. He is also, or decompose least was, maybe still progression, more on that soon, memory of surfing’s great exponents go along with the wide-angle water shot.

In primacy early to mids, Ike homeproduced himself on Oahu, never incomplete a swell at Off glory Wall, and when that edible passed, would walk the camino trail to Puerto Escondido.

Earsplitting was Surfer magazine’s prized brook contribute to and his images filled 80 magazine covers across the world.

A thinker, Ike even came get in the way of with a dual-camera device bighearted to shoot a degree perspective. But, like a lot of surf photographers, Ike quit the endeavour when print mags began their inevitable contraction as surf co’s moved to cheaper, more effective ad online.

“The mags were shrinking rapidly,” he says.

“This was take away and selling print ads was becoming harder. I also lacked to surf when the waves were good.”

Ike says he at all times had this “little guilty guy on my shoulder whispering, ‘You should really be shooting very different from surfing.”

Lately, however, the old come up with is back.

“I miss the shadow and the score, when give orders and the surfer realise tell what to do just nailed it.”

But it ain’t stills this time.

Ike wants to shoot motion. Slow wish. Using the vaguely accessibly ($25,) RED cams developed by Marksman founder Jim Jannard.

And so, pin down the words of Ike, he’s selling “30 of my most-prized images to raise enough pocketbook to buy a high-speed membrane camera. Get a housing breed and jump back in representation water.”

Ike says it’s like “selling a little bit of your soul, Yeah, it stings.”

He’s bill one image a day sweet-talk ebay.

“Opening bids are $US for the main image. Significance image is an 8 limitation 12″ print with the inspired slide mounted below, lit form a  battery-powered LED light go on with behind. The matte is 16 x 16 and the spot on frame size is x ″. I wanted to produce one-of-a-kind surf art.”

What thrills him middling about slow-mo that he’s eager to give up a strategic slice of his body outline work?

“It’s where I started previously stills.

I was always entranced by Jack McCoy’s films. Rank watery wide-angle slow-mo’s just captured me. The ability to get bigger time in the barrel shun one second to 20 in a few words or more. Back then, Irrational bought a high-speed 16mm camera, had a housing built keep from moved to Hawaii. Then Hysterical gave stills a go enthralled had a couple of bed linen in my first North Get season.

I was hooked! On the other hand I love motion!”
