When I first met Adam, standing around a fire pit at secret campsite that doesn’t exist, I had no idea I was in the presence of a dude who laid down his own segment in New World Disorder 10, which I had seen several or more times. He introduced himself, but someone else told me who he was. I thought that was pretty cool. I mean, I was telling everyone I knew about a couple little pictures I used to get myself into a bike mag (case in point) but Hauck just does his thing. He just does it at a higher level. Much higher. I was lucky enough to have my gear in hand one day in early October when Adam was up at Highland shredding the new Rockwood dirt jump line and was able to snap off a few shots.
Keep your feet off the table!
Cropped version of the image above.
Hiking back to shred more laps. Yes, I got that! And here they are finally.
Playing around in photoshop a little bit, images taken with a fisheye lens on the front of a canon 60d.
Look closely. 360 over the skipper, steezy table on the the hip.
Tuck no hander, one of my favorite tricks. I hope to pull these off someday. A while back Adam had given me some pointers when I was working on them in the foam pit. I’ve pulled them into an air bag, but this how they are properly executed, dirt to dirt. With alotta air in between.
I was going to lighten this next one up, but I recall the man himself saying he liked it dark like this. It grew on me too, with the colors in the sky and leaves.
Silhouetted against a stand of hardwoods ready to drop leaves, Hauck drops a bomb on this hip.
The next two were taken approximately .2 seconds apart and I couldn’t decide which I liked best, so here are both.
And… Still holding that toboggan.
One of my favorite shots.
This next one I had a little fun with… Blk Mrkt rider, riding with black skies. I thought it was cool.
There’s a storm coming.
And a parting shot. For now….
He reps his sponsors very well. I never knew about blk mrkt before him, now I will definitely be buying one of their DJ’s. After seeing how sick all the Profile components are, I must say, I would love some of those hubs too.
Photography note: All images taken with a Canon 60d camera with a Canon 70-300mm IS lens at minimum aperture, and a Bower fish-eye f3.5 lens focused to infinity. Processing done in photoshop.

Awesome shots. I really like the fish eye lens pictures.
Hauck is the man! I got to chill with him a little bit during a session in the HTC while back. Mad cool dude, willing to talk with anyone or give advice on how to pull new moves.
