Matt Perrin hooked up this beauty of an edit featuring a couple of Winnipeg’s finest, Colin Thiessen, Shawn Franz and friends.

“Colin Thiessen and Shawn Franz have been riding hard all year round and this is what I was lucky enough to capture of these two Winnipeg shredders! Colin is one steezy street rider and ramp destroyer who rides fast and keeps it simple. Franz has a deep bag of INSANELY technical tricks and lives up to his nick name ‘SHOWTIME’. Watch out for this guy next summer and give both of these guys a fist pound when you see them.”

If you’ve watched the last 2 sections of You Get What We Got, you won’t want to miss the 3rd and final section here featuring Kyle Lafleur, Ryan Eles, Zach Lacelle and finally the credits. These guys absolutely kill it. If you haven’t watched the 1st or section section, do yourself a favour and at least watch this one, a bunch of sick stuff form all 3 guys!!

Ottawa’s Nick B. shredding the streets of Ottawa over the course of 2013. I guess Nick was dealing with some injuries over the year but you wouldn’t know it based on this footage.

Brandon Van Dulken has really been making a name for himself internationally this past year. For good reason, he rides fast, blasts everything and is smooth as hell. Filmed throughout Australia, Western Canada and Woodward West.

Any Canadian who has actually rode BMX knows that Jay Miron is a legend. For those of us who live in the eastern half of Canada, every spring he gave us an amazing indoor contest to ride and watch some of the best riders in the world, also known as Metro Jams. From Road Fools 5, insane video parts, to Elevation, Jay had a huge impact in BMX in Canada. As much as BMX is being pushed year after year and will evolve with time, things like this boost and the 540, the gap to rail at McGill, the double flip, and more will always be historical and relevant in BMX.

Read on to see the picture of the 540 he also did in the deep end of the Hastings bowl and to see his last full video part which had a few epic last clips that I strongly doubt anyone will ever come close to, ever. As much as Jay has been known to be outspoken in his ideals and beliefs, his riding has always spoken louder and his contributions to furthering BMX in Canada (and globally) cannot be ignored. Long live the Canadian Beast.
