The 2012 Gnar Jam is going down this weekend at Skatepark West (Sturgeon rd. & Silver Ave.) in Winnipeg. BBQ, Gnarbar, footdown and good times, if your anywhere near Winnipeg this weekend get out to this!
Our good friends over at Quintin (who happen to be working on a batch of new Embassy summer hats right now) have just dropped their Summer 2012 line. Check it out here and get some summer swag.
“Every year around 100 riders from across BC gather at Parksville skatepark for the GT jam to remember Justin Gair who died in a drunk driving accident in 2006 (the name GT Jam came from the GT Dyno Justin rode). The jam is on its 7th year, and I’m sure everyone would agree that each year was more awesome than the last. Even though I never had the opportunity to meet Justin it’s a great way to remember someone who was liked by so many. Rest In peace Justin.”

***There will be many more GT jams to come***

The other week Phil Bartlett, Sean Slade and Jon Fennelly flew out from Newfoundland to Toronto to ride the city for a while. Phil got broke off on a dirt jump near the end of their trip and flew home early, but they managed to get a lot riding in throughout different parts of the city. Check out this edit from their trip, put together by Chris Langoid.
Ryan Eles is killing it up in Sudbury, ON. Watch his latest edit above for some crazy shit, I’m not sure if I’ve seen anyone do a crank arm to barspin before. Also check out Captial here for a recent trip from Ottawa to Sudbury from Chris Chitaroni and Jorden Guth which also features a bunch of pictures of Ryan killing it at the awesome looking Sudbury trails.
Super stoked on this edit. A big thanks goes out to Jared and Superstar for hooking up this crazy edit. Jared put in work for this and it shows, bangers throughout, and the filming/editing is really on point as well. Stop reading this and click play.
