Some heat out of Montreal from the Imported crew. It’s Quebec in the winter time, so as to be expected it’s all indoor footage from Le Taz, but there’s a big mix of riders in this including: Jordane Dubois, Dillon Lloyd, Justin Hughes, Vlad Poloukhine, Turik Koulaev, Dave Dodier, Max Dumais, Graham Bird, Nick B, Kevin Girard, Carlos, Deleon, Camilo and Joel Marchand.

Here’s the right way to start your Thursday. The dudes from Business having been working on Business II for the past while, and it’s hard to believe this is a pre teaser because there’s a ton of crazy shit throughout! Can’t wait to see the DVD!

“Over the passed few months on Instagram, we’ve been uploading a clip for each rider who’s shaping up a full section for our next DVD (out in 2015).

This isn’t exactly a trailer, more of a compilation of these Instagram clips; left over clips from the crazy amount of footage we’ve been stacking towards the film (plus some extra shots and crashes). We wanted to put out a web video to let you guys know we’ve been working on something awesome since 2012. Filmed by Ian Fleming and Byron Kutchera

Burlington Bike Park has been open for a few months now and they’ve started to develop some regular events and jams. The park is super fun (see above) and they are constantly tweaking the existing jumps and building new lines.

The first Marysville Bike Shop Jam will take place this Friday night (5-10 pm). The shop is a big supporter of the BMX scene in Northern Washington and they have rounded up some product from S&M and Shadow to give away at what should be a relatively informal jam night. They plan to hold jams like this fairly regularly (we will try to keep up on these types of things, but follow the park on facebook if you want all of the details).

The bike park has also started holding a BMX night on Wednesday nights. The park is open until 10:00 p.m. and is offering a reduced price of $12 for the evening for anyone on a 20″.

This year the Flatland Unlimited contest at the Toronto International Bicycle Show celebrated their 10th year of putting on Toronto’s foremost flatland competition. I’ve visited the event for well over a decade, and even competed (albeit not very well) back when it was put on under the Metro Jam umbrella. I shot a few photos of the activity going on in a far corner of the building. Not much of the competition or the riding, but flatlanders are a different and unique group and you can’t help but notice that when seeing these riders that largely practice their craft in solitude come together as a group for an event. Check out a few more photos after the jump.

Trevor Angelucci just sent through this little mix of some lost footage he found on his computer. Take a trip with Trevor and his buds through the skate-parks of the Ok-an-a-gan. Shout-outs on the Salmon Arm and Polson clips!

Stoked to see the bys in Newf putting shit out throughout the dead of winter. In a province that gets some of the coldest and longest winters, these by’s sure do know how to make Newf winters look fun. FRSH.Ca is a rad new site that Paul Pike has put together, stoked to see what’s to come.

It’s crazy how sometimes you can spend more time with people who live only a few hours away from you, somewhere that is 24 hours away. Arnaud and Memiche of La Cribs set out from Terrebonne,QC and headed south to ride bikes for a month in warmer weather. It was awesome to meet up with them in Austin for a couple days and hear some of the crazy stories they had from their travels. There’s not many things better than a road trip! If you’re ever anywhere near Terrebonne, QC be sure to check out La Cribs shop and meet up with these two rad dudes!

Chris Silva spent a quiet afternoon at Joyride 150 recently and pieced together this interesting solo edit. It’s not often that this park is visibly this quiet, so he went to work with some pegless rail moves, wallrides, and some new whip maneuvers for himself. Can you feel it?
