This section was originally buried in the Little Devil Collectors Edition DVD. I’d never seen it before today, and it’s awesome. A little piece of history, and a great summary of popular spots around Vancouver ten years ago.
Greg Flag, Sam Lowe, Taylor Elvy and friends shred the One Six mini ramp while they were over on the island a few weeks back. First person to comment with where this song was originally used wins an Embassy sticker pack.
Darcy Peters doing it for Encore bikes and Calgary, AB #living. Filmed and edited by Andrew Schubert.
The boys over at 3Ride hooked up some info on the Quetico jam that is happening this weekend. Apparently Mike Heaton has transported a bunch of ramps (including the old Metro ramps) just past Thunder Bay, ON to Quetico private school. Who wouldn’t want to ride some of the old Metro ramps?

Here’s a new video of low-fi oddness from Riley McMaster. A mish mash of riding and all kinds of footage edited to a home recorded song. Watch it and mellow out man.
This is also a perfect time to mention that Riley is now a regular contributor to this site. Those of you that keep a close eye have probably already figured that out, but we are fans of Riley’s brand of writing, photography, videos, and the creative projects he releases in general, so it was a no-brainer to bring him on board. This just means more rad shit to share with everyone in the future. Welcome aboard!
Today we begin a new feature called 5 on 5. We will be hitting up some filmers and riders about their top 5 BMX video parts/ or edits, starting with Justen Soule. From Drew Bezanson’s epic Joyride edits, to Demolition’s Last Chance DVD and lots in between, Justen Soule is a Canadian videographer who has been a part of alot of amazing projects. Who better to start off our 5 on 5 feature. Here are Justen’s all time top 5 BMX sections along with a few honorable mentions.

Brandon Webster has a quick interview on BMX Union right now where he talks about all his recent traveling, sponsorships, and influences in his few short years riding. He’s leading the charge of a growing number of young and humble riders that seem to learn everything on their bike very fast, and we are psyched for all of his success. This is also a good time to mention that he won a spot for this summer’s LA X-Games with his Red Bull Phenom entry. Congrats Brandon!
Been pumped to see this, you probably realized this a while ago but Andrew Schubert kills it. Congrat homie!
As part of a summer tradition, a large number of us are heading out on a roadtrip tonight. Last year, we went East to Montana and this year we’ll be exploring the oddities that are the skateparks of the Oregon Coast. To make it a bit more interesting, we’ve split into two teams for the BMX Gallery Ride to Glory Contest.
Keep an eye on the Embassy Facebook page for a few updates along the way and watch for some content on the site later this summer. For now, check out the video from last year’s Montana trip, posted above.
