It’s summer, and when we decided to shoot a “summertime vibe” cover, we dreamed up the idea of a rail shot with tons of beach balls floating in the water as far as the eye could see. I ordered 50 dozen (that’s 600, kids) beach balls to try to cover as much water as we could. We cruised out to the new System 2.0 at The Boarding School to attempt it, and after the painful task of blowing up all 600 balls and trying to contain them with swimming noodles, the wind picked up and blew all the balls everywhere. It was a complete disaster. We were able to walk away that day and plan this shoot, a much more controllable summer situation. Jimmy LaRiche’s 180 to switch tail press, carefully placed beach balls and a couple of beautiful babes made for this epic summer shot. -Shawn Perry
