Vlad @ Importedbmx hooked up this dope edit of a bunch of Montreal shredders killing the taz over winter. Featuring Dillon Lloyd, Jordan Dubois, Vlad Poloukhine, and more. Also watch for the Pasquino body/bike check right at the end.
“Back in the day, Travis Burroughs and I started making videos with the riders around our scene. There were a few different offshoots from the travelling and moving we’ve done, but they’ve mainly been BC centered videos. As a result, we’ve got a ton of old stuff stored up that not too many people have seen. I’ll be uploading everything over the next little while, but I wanted to start off by putting a few of my favorites on Embassy. They feature some household names on the Canadian scene, and the bulk of the footage is from seven or eight years ago.”
