dunefreak Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 A little while ago Esquire magazine e-mailed me about possibly doing a photoshoot with DDR. At first I thought "way cool." We can get some professional photographers to take some badass pics of us duning, right? But then I got thinking.... WTF is Esquire magazine? It's a men's magazine. Is it like a men's FASHION magazine? I started to question it and almost thought it was a joke. 1st e-mail.. Hello there!I am contacting you on behalf of Esquire Magazine in regards to a photo shoot we would like to conduct with the Dumont Dune Riders. We heard that generally speaking the months of October and November draw the most people and have the best weather. We are interested in finding out if there is a central organizer who would be first point of contact for our project. Thank you so much! Mike The guy e-mailed me again the other day and wrote this... Dear Pete Some time ago you had contact with one of our assistants about a fashion photoshoot we were looking to conduct at Dumont Dunes on some of the riders and driver swho regularly congregate there. You very kindly gave us some information then. Im now trying to make a more precise plan for shooting there in early December and wanted to sak if you can help us further with a few questions. Outside the big gatherings (halloween and thanksgiving) are there smaller groups of riders at Dumont every weekend up to christmas? Do you get advance warning of how many are coming to the dunes? What about the first and second weekends in December 12/3,4 and 12/10,11? On quieter weekends what would be the rough number of people you would expect to see - 20, 30 maybe? Do they drive over for the day or all bring trailers and stay over? Where is the nearest town to Dumont What sort of max and min temps could one expect in December? I was there in Mid november 03 and there were maybe 30 people there and about 15 vehicles - That would be enough for us to shoot a great story. We would love to shoot at the dunes and i think the guys who go there would make excellent subjects for the magazine. So if you are able to answer any or all of these questions we could get to planning our trip. Our photographer Julian Broad who like me is english, also shot Brad Pitt motorcycling over sand dunes - but in Namibia south africa - for our october issue. Hes a maniac for ATVs! Best Nick Sullivan ESQUIRE FASHION DIRECTOR I just wanted to know what everyone else thought about this before I contacted him. I don't want to say yeah we'll do this and then we end up in the dunes or at comp hill modeling underwear! helll no! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a beneficial thing financially for ddr? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinicolada Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 It looks to me like there going to do this thing with or with out DDR so why not get The recognition you deserve for having the best Dumont site, you deserve it and maybe get some financial benefit out of it. Plus you could give them info about how terrible it is out there when the wind blows And the terrible conditions it is in the bathrooms, how the road wash’s away and that your neighbor is always riding around your camp on his loud polluting 2-stoke till wee Hours of the night so no one will won’t to come out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunefreak Posted November 7, 2006 Author Share Posted November 7, 2006 While all these responses are funny as hell, I don't think I am gonna pursue this any. Think about it... you get a big name magazine out there. A bunch of these foo foo peeps that don't know chit about the dunes start going out there. Does Dumont really need any more publicity? Do we want more people that don't already know anything about Dumont to KNOW about Dumont? It's getting crowded enough out there. All we need is a bunch of rich metrosexual poopdiks cruising around in sandrails and saying "sssssssuper....look at all the ssssssssand!!!! " I don't know ONE duner that reads that magazine. At first this sounded pretty cool, but the more I think of it it doesn't sound like something I am interested in. Besides, DDR doesn't need any publicity or money to be the best damn Dumont site...it already is! I know they might do it regardess if DDR helps them or not, but I don't think we should condone it.
