MOAB-6

This is for any of you that are stuck inside because of the cold, itching for a balmy adventure. In the summer, a couple of girls from Vancouver bought a trailer and started trekking through America. Their adventure is over a hundred days deep at this point, with no signs of slowing down. As of last week they were in Austin, TX, with no concrete dates for an arrival home.
Surprisingly well connected to the internet, they have been pretty good about posting photo sets and updating the instagram (@ourwildabandon) with all sorts of Americana, freedom soaked images.

Within the first couple weeks their engine broke in half. They spent most of their money getting it fixed, just to realize that the crook mechanic just glued the block back together. That was when they set up a souvenir store to buy postcard size prints of their travels. Since then they have received a ton of support and the trip is as strong and aimless as ever.

If you want to soak up some campvibes, starring a couple of cute girls and whoever they encounter along the way,
Check out their photo sets on their site www.OURWILDABANDON.com
and give them a follow on instagram: @ourwildabandon

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.

Damn. Chalk up another crazy video this week from the west coast. Jordan Hango pedals full speed at spots all over Vancouver in this one for Fit. Too many wild moves in this to start listing them out. Extra points for the use of an instrumental Beastie Boys track.

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.

I remember riding flatland with Jason Plourde outside of Montreal ages ago when he was a young and extremely hyper active rider. He had so much speed and creativity then, now fast forward probably 10 years, after plenty of time spent doing shows in China and further progressing his own riding style, I can say that this flatland video is amazing. Plenty of rolling decades (rollaids? my terminology is rusty), fast spins and scuff-less links. We may not post a lot of flatland videos, but when we do you know they are going to be good.
