BEHIND THE COVER Legendary Mark Matthews had an idea about double towing at ‘The Right’ in Australia, and at the same time he would shoot Taj Burrow from behind. From Russell Ord: “On this day both Mark and Taj started with a couple of warm-up waves, smaller, cleaner and user-friendly. However, it did not take long for Mark to say, “let’s go this one”. I could see this dark mutant beast coming from miles away and knew it was one of the biggest waves of the day. They both let go of the rope so there was no escape; they were at the mercy of the ocean. I documented a piece of history, the wave decided not to participate – it shut down violently. Taj made it to safer ground, however Mark got the beating of his life.” Re Bull Illume Finalist 2016 Photographer: Russell Ord Athletes: Taj Burrows & Mark Matthews Location: The right in Australia Category: Finalist 2016, Energy Words and images courtesy Red Bull Illume EDITOR & ADVERTISING MANAGER Steve Dickinson Mob: 027 577 5014 steve@pacificmedia.co.nz NEW STORE FOR QUEENSTOWN ART DIRECTOR Lynne Dickinson design@pacificmedia.co.nz SUBSCRIPTION ENQUIRIES subs@pacificmedia.co.nz DISTRIBUTION Ovato, Ph (09) 979 3000 OTHER PUBLICATIONS (HARDCOPY AND ONLINE) www.adventuremagazine.co.nz www.adventuretraveller.co.nz www.adventurejobs.co.nz www.skiandsnow.co.nz @adventurevanlifenz Bivouac are proud to announce the opening of their new Queenstown store at Five Mile. www.bivouac.co.nz/bivouac-outdoor-queenstown BOOK WITH RAD – WE DID PUBLISHERS NZ Adventure Magazine is published six times a year by: Pacific Media Ltd, P.O.Box 562 Whangaparaoa, New Zealand Ph: 0275775014 Email: steve@pacificmedia.co.nz adventuremagazine.co.nz | NZadventurebike adventurejobs.co.nz | adventuretraveller.co.nz Contributions of articles and photos are welcome and must be accompanied by a stamped selfaddressed envelope.
