Alberta Tour: Dawson Creek Photos
We’ve had some rough times over the last few days on this tour. A combination of bad weather and gnarly security guards kept us from riding when we were in Edmonton but thankfully today in Dawson was amazing. Gleen Mah from Griffin Sports is one of the raddest dudes ever and so is his shop, if you’re in the area you have to stop in. We had a great session with all of the local kids at the skatepark (Corey Dewey downside whips the hip above) and signed some autographs afterward for everyone. Thanks a lot to everyone who came out, we had a blast and it was definitely a great way to bring our tour to an end. Check out some photos from the session after the jump.
Winnipeg/Saskatchewn Tour Details
Right off the back of our Alberta tour we’ll be hitting Winnipeg and Saskatchewan from July 8-15 with another crew of heavy hitters. Every hotel and rental car company across Canada are going to know us by name! Check out all of the fine details after the jump and come out to see us! If you can’t make it, follow the action here and on our Twitter!
Alberta Tour: Day 2 Photos
Day two of the trip has been amazing so far. We stopped in on the crew at Mission for a bit and hung out and then hit up some spots with the locals. We filmed a bunch of stuff including Wade’s whip gap pictured above. We’re about to head out on the town and shit always gets wild in Cowtown, so watch out. Check out a few more pics after the jump.
Alberta Tour: Day 1 Photos
So Wade Lajlar (Verde), Corey Dewey (Federal) and I all made it into Edmonton just fine today and we picked up Verde’s Kevin Kiraly and Dave Thompson in Calgary to start things off. We headed to B&P Cycles and hung out for a bit and then made our way to the hotel then we ended the day with a session at some trails. Thanks to Devon Rohl for the invite, we had a blast! Check out a few photos after the jump and we’ll see everyone at Mission tomorrow at noon!
Alberta Tour Details
I meant to get this up sooner but things were definitely wild on the last trip. We’re going to be coming through the Alberta area real soon so if you’re near or can get to any of these fine shops, do it! We’re gonna have a great crew with us including Kevin Kiraly and Dave Thompson from Verde and will be hanging out and riding the whole time. Check out all of the details after the jump, see you soon!
Quebec Tour: Done!
So the Quebec tour wrapped up yesterday and it was a helluva time. The last day of the tour had us stopping in at Element 51 in St. Eustache. Carl runs a dope shop and there were a bunch of kids that came out to show us around. We rode a few local parks and even put more time in on another race track, pretty sure we’re all gonna get custom jerseys soon and start our own team! The locals were stoked and everyone had a great time, thanks guys! The Animal crew headed out yesterday morning and Greg, Dill, Sean, Silva and I hit up an epic schoolyard for the afternoon and filmed a bunch of stuff then capped it all off with some Mexican food for Sean’s birthday. Thanks again to everyone on the trip; all of the shops, locals and anyone else who made it all go down. Shout outs to the Animal crew for sure, they killed it and we all had a blast together. Check out some photos after the jump, digi-cam edits coming soon!
Quebec Tour: Day 3 & 4
The last two days have been pretty wild, we’ve been everywhere from Quebec City to Trois Rivieres, Montreal and now we’re in Ottawa. On Friday we hit up Laferte in Trois Riviere (where Silva did this over-icepick) during the day and got down on a race track with the crew and then headed to Montreal to visit Marseille. We hit up a ton of spots and clocked some footy before heading to Ottawa. We got into town, visited Jose at Joe Mamma, rode some spots with the locals (thanks to Prashant for being a rad tour guide again!) and wrapped things up with a BBQ at Jose’s (pasta salad was amazing, thanks Paisley!) and a night at Zaphod’s. The festivities are still rolling as I’m posting these photos and our suite is poppin’ off! Check out a ton of photos from both days after the jump.
Quebec Tour: Day 2 Photos
Damn, that’s all I can say really. Day 2 of the tour started off a bit slow as all of us were out enjoying the St. Jean Baptiste festivities the night before and the Animal crew got in super late, not to mention the fact that the weather wasn’t on our side. Everything came together in the afternoon and as the sun came out we loaded up and rolled. There’s a ton of amazing stuff in Quebec and we sampled a lot of it. The above picture is of Dillon Lloyd riding a roof that we came across while riding from spot to spot (click to see it larger). He spun the bars first and then decided to whip it, I climbed up there with him to get a better look and it’s pretty wild. Check out more photos after the jump including Dillon’s trick of the day! Don’t forget, we’ll be in Trois Rivieres at Laferte tomorrow around 2pm and back in Montreal at Marseille around 8pm, see ya there!
Quebec Tour: Day 1 Photos
We just got into the hotel in Quebec after a solid afternoon of riding. We hit up Mathieu Performance and hung out for a while then hit up a ton of spots around the area and stacked some clips, like Greg Flag straight hopping above. The Animal crew got a bit hung up and are on their way into town right now. We’ll be riding all day tomorrow around the Quebec City area, whenever we get up from the St. Jean Baptiste festivities! Check out some more photos from the day after the jump.
