Jimmy has a rad interview with Darryl on dig which you can see here. It’s an amazing read and you’ll find lots more amazing international content on Dig.
The awesome dudes at 514 in Montreal are hosting an amazing contest series called The King of Taz. Inspired by the awesome King of Quebec series from many moons ago, the contest has three dates, of which there will be a jam/ contest in different parts of the Taz. On the third and last date, the King of Taz will be crowned. This is a rad event promoting riders to ride everything but Liam at 514 also stressed that “you can compete in all or just 1 of the events. Of course the best chance anyone has a being crowned the King of Taz would be by riding in all three events but the park is open to riders also, the contest is just for those interested in competing.” This sounds like the best of both worlds, prizes at all three events, if your anywhere near Montreal make it out to this event!
The man Justin came through with this awesome video of him killing his backyard ramps. I find it amazing that he carries the speed he needs across all that grass, I doubt I’d be able to jump half the gaps that he wraps into combos in this. Finishes off with the crew chirping in classic Justin video fashion. Loved the line at 1:12.
Here in Nova Scotia (Hubbards, to be exact), back in the 1990s some dudes bought a piece of land on the ocean and began to build an incredible 20million$+ sea spa. The project ran into funding issues in 1994 and closed down.
This Fall, Red Bull came along and turned the inside of the building into a skatepark, as well as turning a waterpump foundation into a temporary concrete bowl. They filmed a video called Red Bull: Last Resort, which dropped on December 4th.
After Red Bull had left, Kyle, Coady and I went to check out the scene. The indoor stuff had been taken down, and the bowl was partially destroyed and filled with debris and water (couldn’t keep for insurance issues). We spent a day salvaging the bowl to ride it for the evening, before being completely filled in with dirt and rocks later that week.
We made a short video from the day, and named it after the Red Bull project that brought us the bowl. Shame it couldn’t have been left there for the public to ride it.
Riders: Riley Abramyk, Trucker (Dan Corbett), Isaac Barnes, Rich Harding, Sean Tiffin, Chris Perrin
BMX Gallery Guests: Darcy Peters, Kyle (Peaches), King of Streets (Richard Gallant)
