The only real trail jams/contests are those which the jumps and landings remain after the events are over with. Over the years Brose Jams have gotten bigger and bigger and this year (their 4th year) was proof. Josh Brose, Alex Boyd, Steve and a ton of others put in work from the time the snow began to melt to this past weekend so that the new setup could be as dialled as it was. The first two jumps were referred to as ‘Elevation jumps’ by many and the roll in is well over 20 feet tall. The hard work these guys put in was more than appreciated by every single person at the jam. Make sure to make it out to next year’s jam, you’ll be glad you did!

Kerr just hit us up with his last and final North American Street Jingle mix. Kerr has recently relocated to Glasgow, Scotland from Victoria, BC. How fitting that Kerr drops this feel good homie mix on Canada Day. There are some real creative moves in this. Give it a watch!

Interview by Aaron Gates

Dave Butler has seen a lot of BMX in his day. At 35, he has more energy and enthusiasm for riding than kids half his age. Dave grew up as part of a quietly thriving Williams Lake scene that included Travis Fontaine and Chad Baba (a local legend to all who saw him ride back then). These days, he bounces back and forth between the Vancouver and Whistler scenes. He’s still exploring, riding new places and learning new tricks at an age when most people have hung the bike up for good.
