THE NORTHERN EMBASSY

The boys over in Moncton, NB, dropped this tight little park mix featuring some crazy good stuff from Alexis Leger, Zachary Stokes, Andrew Phillips, Chad Wright, Jeremy Gallant, Jamey Parker and Hale Murphy. Alexis does an oppo hanger to bar and Zach can slang the bars off and out of anything. Keep an eye out for more from these guys in the future.




Unbeknownst to a lot of people that aren’t from Toronto, there is a small island south of the city appropriately titled Toronto Island. It is the exact opposite of the rest of the city, in that it is quiet, peaceful, full of green space, has (relatively) clean beaches, and not populated with cars. It also has a very small and modest skatepark.

We decided to take a trip over for the afternoon to see what fun we could have with it, soak up some sun, and have a BBQ. Before we got much riding in we found ourselves dodging the rain, hiding under gazebos, and sharing food with other visitors, before we ultimately got to the beach for some sunny skies during a break in the weather.

Check out this short video of our Toronto Island afternoon with riding from Chijioke Okafo, Chris Cadot, Trent Barker, and Scott Barker. Filmed and edited by Chris Cadot.




Here’s a quick one to start your weekend. Ryan Eles, Jeremy Deme, Lee Giroux and myself (Joel Fortin) had a little morning warmup session at the Dufferin Grove skatepark in TO and this is what we came up with. Unfortunately Jeremy hurt his heel and couldn’t get any clips, but he still held it down behind the lens.

Our pal Justin Schwanke hit us up with this video from a trip he took to the state of Washington recently with his friend Colin Reimer. They flew from central Canada to Seattle, and spent some time down in Olympia. Check out his video above, and a collection of photos from his trip after the link.
