21 Mar Pad Check: Jorden Guth

Posted at 12:18h in archive by Prashant Gopal

Wearing helmets and pads is always a personal preference. Some swear by them, some couldn’t care less. Jorden Guth is one person that swears by his pads, and I can’t think of a time that I saw him riding seriously without some gear on. When someone is strong in conviction over something, it’s usually with good reason, and he’s woken up on the flat bottom of a ramp on more than one occasion. I wanted to hear from him why he specifically runs the gear that he does. Click to read more from Joden Guth and his safety gear check.

17 Mar Video Submission: Shit Clips V1.0

Posted at 18:09h in archive by Luke Santucci

Shit clips started about five years ago when Mike Boag got a hold of a cheap mini dv camera. From there he just brought the camera along when ever a crew would go out riding and clock a few clips. Nothing serious just having fun filming some “shit clips” then editing it on windows movie maker. Not much has changed since those days… Mike is back and equipped with a Gopro and final cut pro. While the vibe of the videos stays the same the production quality is now stepped up. Check out the new Shit Clips above that was filmed on Mikes’ 9 day southern California vacation and hit us up at info@northernembassy.com if you want to submit your own videos.

13 Mar Anthem 2

Posted at 19:06h in archive by Jeremy Deme

I’ve been wanting to write about this video for over a month now. The film was released some time ago, and although alot of people may have already seen it, the goal of this review is to get those who haven’t, to do so. Part of the problem with writing a review on Anthem 2 is knowing where to start, there’s seriously only good things to say about it and so much amazing riding. If I had to describe this video with only one word I’d use the word “epic”.
