Andrew Gobbo hooked up the first of his DVX files series, starting with himself shredding out East (Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Hamilton).
It’s hockey night in Canada and James Steele hooked up this amazing picture of him with Don Cherry and Ron Maclean from last spring, the day after game 7 of the Stanley cup finals in Vancouver. Three Canadian beauty’s right there. (more…)
We’ve teamed up with Quintin (who else makes hats as good as these guys?) to hold a winter contest and give away our last 1 year anniversary hat. The contest is simple, you have until March 1st to submit what you do to get through the Canadian winter. It can be anything: pond hockey, snowboarding, indoor riding, goin hard in the Mac, getting stizzed, whatever. You can submit it by photo, edit, writeup, whatever you can think of. Be creative! All entries should be emailed to northernembassy@gmail.com. The winner will be chosen by the Embassy crew and announced shortly after the March 1st deadline. We will be posting up some of our favourite submissions throughout the contest. Have fun with this and share it with your friends on Facebook.
ps. If you are still looking to buy one of these hats hit up BMX Gallery or 3Ride to grab one. They may still have a couple left.
*****UPDATE QUINTIN IS KICKING IN SOME ADDITIONAL SWAG TO THE WINNER******
Here’s a 5 clipper that Matt Desson and I whipped up in very little time during one cold winter day at the Tsawwassen skatepark.
Mark Karau comes through with a beautiful photo of Mike Carol during a short street session right before Christmas in Victoria. It’s not snowing everywhere.
This is old news by now, but this is what the boys did a few days before getting to Barcelona for the Embassy vacation. Pretty damn good for a couple days of shredding between the rain in the UK.
Chase Davidson hooked up this video from his recent trip to Arizona. Lots of great stuff in this, and that last clip is pretty wild.
Recent trip I took down to Arizona to escape the Canadian winter for a few weeks. Great time, great people, and I decided to put together this edit for all to get a little sunshine.

Mr. David Osato tailwhip tailtap on a boat launch. Dave took looking for spots to a whole new level. The bank is made of rocks, he rolled downhill to hit it, and if it went bad he’d be in the lake. Awesome. About five hours after this photo was taken Dave was dressed in his gorilla suit sneaking around a camp ground in the mountains scaring the shit of people. I’m still surprised no one thought he was a bear and shot him.

We decided to put together a list of our top 10 posts/ edits from 2011. In no particular order we compiled this list via google analytics, vimeo views and most importantly from you guys, our readers. (Above photo submitted by Gustav Ekelund)
