Things have been crazy busy around here lately with Expocycle and Interbike and there’s a ton of news and new shit to catch up on, we’re gonna do our best to get things back up to speed over the next couple days. First bit of news, saw a couple dope photos of James Steele (Kink) shredding in Vancouver shot by Jason Vawter. Check out another pic here on the Kink site.
Here’s the edit from the first of our 2011 Summer Tours featuring Corey Dewey (Federal/Animal/Almond), Wayne Hartman (Kink), James Steele (Kink) and Jaumell Campbell (MacNeil/Almond). We had a blast in Alberta when it wasn’t raining and rode a ton of great spots in both Calgary and Edmonton. Thanks to everyone who helped us out or hooked us up along the way, especially Devon Rohl at BMX Gallery 4130 in Calgary and Ryan Davis from Boicott for putting the Stripper Jam together and bringing everyone out for a great time. Filmed and edited by Le Luke Santucci (éclat). This is gonna be stickied to the top of the blog for a day or so, scroll down for new posts!
While we were on our Alberta trip both James and Dewey shot some pics on their iPhones so we figured we’d post a couple of them up. Here’s James with Don Cherry and Ron MacLean as he was leaving the Vancouver airport, the trip hadn’t even started and James was stoked! Check out a couple more photos after the jump.
Finished sorting through a bunch more riding photos and other nonsense from the Alberta trip. Corey Dewey got down at this spot in Edmonton, hopping the construction barriers to start a line. Check out a bunch more pics after the jump.
So we wrapped up our trip today under sunny skies for a change which was pretty sweet. The last couple of days were pretty productive and everyone in the crew threw some shit down, including Gucci Wayne Hartman (above) who pulled out stuff like this can-jam on a nearly impossible spot to ride. We stayed in Calgary for a couple days after the Stripper Jam and rode some of their street gems and then headed back north to Edmonton for some good times to round out the trip. Check out a couple more photos from the dudes after the jump and expect a couple more photo updates real soon.
The first trip of our 2011 Summer Tour started yesterday when James Steele (pictured above with a toothpick on a narrow ledge), Wayne Hartman, Corey Dewey and myself flew into Edmonton. We spent the entire day driving around trying to dodge rain and didn’t even get to put our bikes together. Today was a bit different, we had a super fun session at Kaskitayo skatepark in the sun. Everyone filmed some clips before it started to rain again, then we hit up Millwoods skatepark for a session before it rained and ended the session. Check out a few more photos after jump and we’ll see everyone in Calgary tomorrow for the Stripper Jam!

James Steele (Kink) and Sam Lowe (WTP) destroy Kirkstone park in Vancouver all in one night. Shout out to The Embassy crew on this one, so good!
My main man James Steele (Kink) is back in Ontario for a bit hanging out. I headed to Kitchener last weekend and hung out with him, got loose and rode dirt bikes in the snow. Good times.
