Meathead East Coast Skiing Adventure Movies & Films

By Geoff "The General" McDonald

For years Shea has been bugging me to come film urban in his hometown(s) of Lewiston/ Auburn, Maine.  These "twin cities" are seperated by the Adroscoggin River and located about a 45 minute drive north of Portland.  Shea was boasting about all the cool jibs to be had but we all blew it off as typical Shea speak.

So this season we gave in and right after Sugarloaf, I headed over to meet up with Sheamus and see what the city had to offer.  To say the least it was really sick.  The blue collar community, old mills, ample snow, and good topography made for a productive week of filming. The cops didn't bother us, Shea got a front-page picture in the local paper and with the help of Dan Marion, Cedric TF, his brother Devin and friend Joe, Shea is going to have a nice hometown segment in our new movie.  We even got to spend a day filming and skiing Shea & Family's epic backyard setup!  Filming urban for a whole week takes a major toll on the body but everyone manned up and Shea was an animal the whole time getting some truly epic and unique features banged out.  Check out the pics:
