Jacob Manning sent over this video of Newfoundland’s hungriest rail and ledge riders grinding their winter away at the Turndown park. Check it out.
Damn. We posted Jordan Hickey‘s part in the Stranded video last month, and now comes this awesome video of him at the Turndown park filmed over the course of a brutal Newfoundland winter. Plenty of hot moves throughout. Filmed and edited by Paul Pike.
Ryan Antle sent over this trailer for the upcoming St. John’s scene video The Stranded Video, and I’m a sucker for a strong local scene production. This is the first full length video from their area since Hiatus in 2005, and it’s great to see such a range of ages and talent in this trailer alone. The video will be premiering at Turndown this fall and then online shortly after. We’ll post more details about the premiere party when we have them.
St. John’s, Newfoundland has a booming BMX scene and population, despite the city’s relatively small size. Much of that can be attributed to Rob Yetman’s shop Turndown. Very few shops offer a huge selection of BMX bikes and parts, as well as being home to an ever changing indoor park. Rob and his crew are in there building ramps, rails, and modifying their setup in order to offer the riders of St. John’s a haven for the long winter months. Jon Fenn sent in this edit from their winter so far, which includes a number of Hiatus/Deadline era riders back riding for the first time in a few years.
