Kink Island Tour Update 1

The Kink Island Tour started out yesterday after we picked everyone (Chris Doyle, Darryl Tocco, KC Badger, Lil John, Jay Roe) up at the airport and loaded into our stealth black 15 passenger van. We loaded up on the ferry and cruised over to the island, hit the hotel and wilded out for the night. Today we hit up Goldstream Cycles and rode a local park with the kids and then headed over to One Six. The dudes at One Six have a dope mini-ramp in the shop that we shredded that for a bit before we cruised over to Vic West skatepark to ride. Check out more photos from the trip so far after the jump.

Interior Trip Day 4 & 5

We’ve pretty much wrapped up our Interior tour with Volume and Demolition and it was a blast. Our last day in Kelowna was spent chilling pretty hard. We hit the beach for a while and then got around to some street riding and stacked clips. Right before we left to head back to Vancouver, Chijioke pulled out the over icepick in the photo above, so good. We headed back to Vancouver and stopped in at Caps Bicycle Warehouse in Langley and rode the local skatepark. Now we’re back in Van and getting ready to head out on the town. The Kink team is coming in real soon so watch out for updates from that and check out some more photos after the jump.

Interior Trip Day 3

Yesterday we were in Penticton for the Inferno Jam and it was a blast. A ton of riders came out, shredded, went really high and jumped really far for some free stuff and had a wild game of footdown in the bowl. We all went from the skatepark to the beach right after (the Interior is the best place on earth) and cooled down before getting loose with everyone at night. Check out a bunch of other photos after the jump.

Interior Trip Day 2

Got a day behind on the updates, sorry. Day 2 of the trip was pretty chill, we headed to Vernon and stopped in at Sun Country Cycles for while to meet up with Trevor and the locals. From there we went and rode Coldstream skatepark for a while in the blazing sun, it was a pretty mellow session. We hit up the other local park in Vernon for a bit as well before we headed back to Kelowna for some wild times on the town. Check out a few more shots after the jump and check for some photos from today’s Inferno Jam sometime tomorrow.

Interior Trip Day 1

The first day of the tour went over pretty well. We all flew in the day before and crashed in Vancouver for the night and made the drive to Kelowna yesterday morning. We got into Kelowna, checked into the hotel and then pedaled over to Cyclepath to meet Matt and the rest of the crew there and to hang out for a bit. We left the shop and headed to the skatepark nearby and had an awesome, chill session with all of the locals. Andrew Lazaruk (MacNeil), in the above photo, came to meet us as well and is our official tour guide of sorts and killed the skatepark as well. We ended last night by going to the OK Corral country bar…yea, country bar. Good times all in all.

We’re heading to Sun Country Cycles in Vernon today for around 2:oo PM, stop in and say hi! Check out more photos from day one after the jump.

Part One of the feature is up right now on Defgrip with photos like the one above taken during the Winnipeg/Saskatchewan tour, check it all out here and watch out for Part Two!
