Earlier this year in the spring Matt Perrin took a ride on a Greyhound bus from Winnipeg to Montreal. Anyone who has ever ridden the bus any distance in this country knows it’s not an easy ride, let alone for 1.5 days of constant travel. To coincide with this new edit (filmed in Winnipeg, Montreal, Brandon, and Kenora) we asked Matt a few questions about both cities, and the good and the bad of traveling across country by bus. Check that out below.

Rich Redmond and a gang of Ottawa boys took their inaugural trip to Sudbury to ride trails, skateparks, and jump off of humungous bridges. More coverage and photos here.

In July, 15 of us packed a bunch of cars up and took a trip deep into Oregon. We take a trip like this every year and make a point to go somewhere new each time. The trip featured veterans like Alaskan wildman David Clay and newcomers like Dave Butler and Caleb Ruecker (along with many names that you’ll recognize from this site over the years). We bombed hills, roasted magnesium in the campfire, hung out on the dunes, waited on the side of the highway with a broken down minivan and rode some of the weirdest and wildest skateparks the Northwest has to offer.

We’ve got a good amount of content coming from this trip, and up first is a gallery shot by Jason Vawter. Jason shot so many great photos that we’ve left them in a gallery on Flickr for easy viewing. Check the gallery out HERE.

Newest edit from Brodie Gwilliam featuring Josh Franc, Brodie Gwilliam, Jack Lokken, Zarrek Mus, Braden “1st place in Amateur Shake the Lake 2013” Beck, Steve Kowalsky and Blairoids. This edit documents the B4L dudes making their way from Saskatchewan to Shake the Lake in Sylvan Lake, AB.

There’s been a lot of west coast coverage lately, but this video is worth it for the handplant alone. John Alden left Calgary for two weeks in Vancouver and put together quite a bit of footage (in such a short period of time) for Ten Pack. His ability to put a solid line together has come a long way, and the line at the 2:16 mark is a good example of this.

Last summer we put together the ‘Stay Glad it’s Summer mix’ edit (see below) and it was probably the funnest thing I filmed all year. I’ve been meaning to put this together for quite a while now but better later than never. Northern Embassy 2013 Summer Mix compiled of a bunch of random footage from the past few months. Featuring Dillon Lloyd, Jeff Evans, Albert Krolikowski, Dave Laliberte, Mike King, Luke Santucci, Corey Dewey, Jeremy Deme, Matt Desson, Jason Teet, ‘Skinny’ Jeff Bedard, Jordan Hango, Greg Flag, and Sophie
