Around 2001 a guy named Jon Bot moved to Kelowna. He stayed for about six months, we went on a couple of trips and then he left for Australia. While he was in town, Jon showed us a video full of raw footage from Kenora, Ontario. The video included a guy on a Blue Schwinn complete who did tricks I’d never seen done and a bunch of big gaps and rails. Some of those clips ended up in the last part of the 807 video, which is one of the best Canadian scene videos ever. Karl Engstrom had the ender; it was awesome in 2003, and it still holds up today.

Jared Chilko is a Canadian shredder who’s been killing it for nearly a decade. Being the awesome guy he is, he hooked us up with this awesome fall edit and interview. From Fit to Seshin to Superstar, chipping teeth on falafels, tattoos, quality over quantity, and a bunch more JJ shares a bunch with us. Watch the edit below and read on for the full interview.

This is dope, Chris Smith aka Truck Barns killin it for Hevil, filmed by Surrey Steve. Although the whole story kinda comes apart at the end there, out of nowhere there’s this lone dancer who appears to be injured… it’s a disturbing image.

The first time I ever saw Brandon ride was at the Taz contest last fall, he was killing it with wallride to double barspins and a bunch of other ridiculous stuff casually in runs and I’m pretty sure he was 16 at the time. Apparently Brandon’s gotten even better since then and has dialed in ridiculous nose manual variations. Congrats Brandon! Filmed and edited by Justin Browne.
