Chase just sent through this mix from his west coast travels. Great mix of the skateparks and streets of Alberta and BC, Chase met up with some homies and once again got down on his bike. Featuring: Cody Sisler, Rylee Rickett, Dave Laliberte, Levi Eshleman, Matt Desson, and Chase himself.




I’ve seen Gabe Truax footage before, but this is not like one of those times. Despite the abundance of rails and ledges in this video it’s hard to characterize Gabe’s riding as that. This features some very hard and technical tricks done fast and smooth on a variety of interesting set ups and obstacles. I don’t know how to better sell it to you, but this is full of some great riding (those wallies were very refreshing to see thrown in to lines), and a beautifully pulled ender. Don’t miss this one.




Dave has been cruising around the Vancouver, riding with the homies, and stacking clips with his phone. It appears Dave has traded in his potato, for a phone that films some crispy HD! Featuring: Dave himself, Andy McGrath, Jordan Hango, Cory Walsh, James Van De Kamp, Shelby Hare, Jordan Fair, Amos Franke, Chris Smith, Dave Laliberte, Andrew Schubert, Zach Rampen, Randy Moffat, Nik Muryn, and Cary Lorenz. Check it out!

Chase Davidson just sent through a poster for this years BNE jam. Chase has put together some rad challenges with prizes to suite. Whether you’re soft, hard, or scrambled head out to Windsor for September 27th. Don’t forget your bacon!




This is absolutely crazy. When you look at that setup and think something goes insanely wrong it’s scary enough, Carl gets even scarier in this clip. Check it. chillingspree.org

Battle in the Rockies is a flatland contest taking place in Colorado Springs, CO on November 15. From my understanding, riders qualify for the contest by entering a 1 minute long video of themselves for a flatland video battle of sorts, which a panel of judges deliberate and determine your placing, and people are flown in to compete live for the event. Montreal’s Jean-William Prevost and Edmonton’s Cory Fester both took the top two spots respectively (Cory tied for second place with another rider) by entering these two amazing videos. Unfortunately Cory had to withdraw from the contest because he cannot make the event, but the combos they hit are incredible nevertheless. Check out Jean-William’s 1st place entry above, and Cory’s 2nd place entry below.
