takin the train, takin the train

a straight repost from BrownBookElastic...

"Back in the whirlwindcalledseptember, we shot South African awesomes BLK JKS here in NYC and now Secretly Canadian has released the vid for your'n'all'eyes alike. but wait - lets backstory-backtrack!... Some time ago, the very talented Nadia Hallgren travelled to Soweto, South Africa to get some mindblowing shots of dudes surfing trains -- and eventually make the doc Sanza-Hanza.

When BLK JKS wanted to use the doc's footage for the project, they contacted Nadia -- who i then met, and we were off on the road to video. my heart is full of love and whelms for all the people who helped this project along the way: the steering, the enabling, the make-happen-ing, the sweating, the carrying, the whittling, the ALL-ing. thank you, thankyou... i'm so pleased.
