From Kiev to Turkey and to Hip-Notics of course

I spend one evening and night in Kiev before I flew to Turkey.
Nice place... I hope in this summer I could stay little bit longer over there.
Some pics... Kiev at night:

Rodina Mat

Залют Hotel
Soviet architecture at its best

In the next early morning to airport and here I am Turkey and Hip-Notics again. Start to feel home))

Red Bull Jump & Freeze "Aqua Show" 2013 20.4.

My plan was to return back already on Friday 19.4. evening to St. Petersburg just because of this happening.
Well St. Petersburg airport was closed many hours, because of some bomb threat and e.g. my flight was cancelled.
I got to there only on Saturday and drove almost straight from airport to Korobicino and to 2013 Aqua Show.
Aqua Show is happening where people are jumping to big water pool in various costumes. It's one the season ending events.
I got to there only for finals. It was fun, but I think I lost the best parts, because of some idiot, who gave fake bomb warning to airport.)))
Here are some photo's from this traditional happening:

Vladimir Iljitš Lenin

Dream body of every girl and man....

...and more chicks)))

Carlsson on the Roof and perfectly done tailwhip!

Some of the jumpers got to the podium, but that's not the main thing of this happening.)))

This was one of the season ending events, but season is not ending at all in Korobicino.
There are still quite nice kickers in Золотая долина, actually there are 3 big airs, which you can make during one run, really nice in the end of April.
I talked with slope manager and he told; Target is to ride until 12th of May!!! YEAH!!!

Hip-Notics at the end of March and table-top session

It was end of March @ Hip-Notics, weather was already so warm that it was possible to ride without wet-suit. At least some Scandinavian and British riders were making it.
In the beginning I saw when Sophie Cordery was making amazing presses on table-top sliders, then I went to shoot photos and to ride also myself and after all I got some nice shots of many riders.

Sophie inspired me to shoot photos on this table-top. Just perfect... beautiful girl, making really nice press with happy smile!

This is a result when tough guy try to make smile on the table-top. Eric Sanden from Sweden!
It's HEAVY METAL!!

Sam Weller and really fine tuned position on the table-top.

My nose-press... Hip-Notics table-top is loooong and it's possible to lean and still lean little bit more before the end.

Stylish nose-press... a girl whose name I don't remember.

Jan Paterok and nose-press. Check countenance of  a girl!!

Andreas Skjodt Kjaergaard from Denmark... stylish!!

I had to put one photo of my air-trick to here, because I read from Russian social media interview of popular Russian rider that air-tricks are history and not cool. I'm against fashion and what is cool))) I love air tricks!! ...and by the way I haven't ridden never by kite!!)))
