Taylor Elvy (MacNeil/Animal/Almond) and Greg Flag (MacNeil/Almond) throw down on their back alley set up in Vancouver, press play!

Here’s a quick edit that Pierre Gauthier of W&B Daily put together of Corey Dewey (Federal/Animal/Almond), Greg Flag (MacNeil/Almond), Dillon Lloyd (MacNeil), Max Vincent (Federal) and Jeremy Deme shredding at the Pepsi Pro/Am contest (with a guest clip from homie Albert Kralikowski).

Our tour of the east coast of Canada was probably the best/wildest trip we’ve ever done. Greg Flag (MacNeil/Almond), Sam Lowe (Wethepeople), Andy Roode (Volume/Demolition), Phil Bartlett (Wethepeople), Sean Cooke and myself hit up Halifax, Nova Scotia, Charlottetown, PEI and St. John’s, Newfoundland over two weeks and rode some amazing spots and met some great people. Thanks a ton to Dave Scott and Ryan Kuryluk for letting us crash at their place in Halifax, the crew at MacQueen’s in Charlottetown for hooking us up with a place to stay, Rob Yetman at Turndown in St. John’s for helping us out a ton, Carl Scott (Dave Scott’s dad) for the BBQ, the Cooke family and everyone else we met, rode with and partied with for the east coast hospitality. Filmed and edited by Sean Cooke.

Check out another video after the jump that Dave Scott put together of some party footage and look below this post for some new updates, this is gonna be stickied to the top of the blog for a bit.

Today was our last full day of the trip and we had a time here in St. John’s. We met up with the locals at Turndown and had an awesome visit and session, thanks so much to Rob for hooking things up for us. If you ever need anything at all, be sure to swing by Turndown and Rob will hook you up. After the shop visit we hit up a rail spot and the crew completely destroyed it. Andy Roode laced an icepick across and down the entire thing, so wild. Check out some more pics after the jump, thanks to everyone here in St. John’s and to everyone else who helped us out during this trip!

Greg Flag, pegs to over bars. Greg shut down this spot, wait ’til you see the video.

The setup at Turndown is so good, we had a blast riding there.

Andy Roode, doin’ it for the kids.

Straight flexin’ with the kids.

Here’s Rob killing it at the shop. The scene in St. John’s is so good and it’s almost all thanks to this guy. Thanks Rob!

Today we left Halifax and now we’re on a 14 hour ferry over to Newfoundland which should be a wild ass time. We’ve been riding a ton  over the last couple days and everyone’s been killing it. Andy Roode destroyed this spot at Pier 21 with moves like this roller coaster toothpick. Check out some more photos after the jump and we’ll see everyone in Newfoundland at Turndown!

Greg Flag, deep end toothpick.

Sean Cooke put down the camera for a minute to slide this roller coaster icepick start to finish.

Ryan Kuryluk with a dope sign ride to wallride.

Greg took us to this wild ditch out in the middle of nowhere. This thing was so crazy, pretty much a cheese grater if you fell on it.

Phil Bartlett, down-whip.

Greg Flag, footjam whip.

This trip has been wild! We’re back in Halifax now after our trip to Charlottetown, PEI where we had a great time with the locals. We stopped in at MacQueen’s and had a great session at the park with the locals that ended with a game of footdown. The night got real wild when we ended up back at the skatepark in the dark with a keg full of beer…but that’s another story. Everyone clocked some clips, including Phil Bartlett who dive bombed this tooth hanger in downtown Charlottetown. Thanks to Dan and John and everyone at MacQueen’s for hooking us up with a great place to stay in the apartment above the shop and some amazing fresh salmon that Dan caught. Check some more photos after the jump.

We were greeted by a pretty serious crew when we got to MacQueen’s.

Greg Flag, no big deal or anything.

The Confederation Bridge out to PEI was pretty cool to drive across.

We had a super fun session with all of the locals at their skatepark.

Footdown for prizes.

Wild, random night. That’s our trip mascot, Terrence the reindeer.

Greg Flag getting down on a large ledge.

These barn ramps were close to the ferry we took to get back to Nova Scotia and they were dope. Thanks to Chris Menzie and his parents for letting us ride the ramps and for BBQing for everyone.

Dave Scott, havin’ a blast.

Greg Flag, double handplant at the top of the vert wall.

We’ve been having some good times out here on the east coast even though the weather’s been less than perfect. It’s been a lot colder than we thought and raining off and on but we’ve still been getting things done. Today we hit up Sportwheels in Sackville, NS and hung out for a bit then had a great session with everyone back at the Commons park. Greg Flag handplants in the bowl above, check out some more shots after the jump. We’re heading to PEI tomorrow and will be at MacQueen’s around 3PM, see you there!

Andy Roode, crooked stall.

Sean Cooke, workin’ it.

Greg Flag with a sick stovepipe that he just learned 5 minutes before this photo.

Sportswheels employee, shredder and super nice guy Ryan Kuryluk. We’ve been staying with him and Dave Scott in Halifax and we can’t thank them enough.

Andy Roode, barspin gap at the start of a line.

Sportwheels in Sackville, Nova Scotia is the spot for everything you need. Hit them up next time you need anything.

Ryan hard at work.

The elastic ball at Sportwheels has been going for a while now and it’s massive.

Today was the first full day of our east coast trip and a lot of shit went down. We all got into Halifax yesterday and sat around and watched it rain so we were all stoked to get out. Everyone was in kill mode, especially Sam Lowe in the above photo with an overgrind. Check out a bunch more photos after the jump and expect more updates soon.

Phil Bartlett, pegs with a shit run-up.

There’s more to this than just a double peg. Greg Flag gettin’ down on a long ass rail.

A couple weeks back we hit up Montreal to hang out with Liam and the crew at 514 BMX for their grand opening summer jam. Chijioke Okafo, Chris Silva and myself drove up and met up with Corey Dewey, Greg Flag, Mike Cardin, Mike Fiz, Eric Trepanier and a bunch of other Montreal and area locals for a super fun session. Everyone got down on the bunnyhop bar and some other spots we rode nearby under sunny skies. Thanks a ton to Liam for putting things together and having such an amazing shop and to our homie Sean Cooke for filming and hooking up the edit.

MacNeil just dropped the edit from their Vegas/Phoenix tour that went down earlier this year and it turned out rad. Don’t forget to check out the new issue of Ride BMX to see the 9 page article from the trip as well!
