Ten Pack Summer Tour

trippin

The Ten Pack team are on tour again this summer. You can expect assorted members of their team to roll through Ottawa some time between the 24th and 28th of June as they travel, visit shops, and film.

That’s right, we’re hitting the road once again this year for some summer tours and will be hitting a bunch of shops and spots all over Canada. We’ll be announcing exactly who will be on each trip and what shops we’ll be going to closer to each date so keep watching the site for more information and be sure to come hang out and ride with us!

Prasheel Gopal Spring Flatland Video

Prasheel sent me this new video he self filmed of him riding at his (now) old spot. At 4 minutes, it’s a pretty long video, but he says you can skip straight to 2:25 to see all his recently learned tricks/switches.

Fuck you Ash Cloud. We did Germany

Not even mother nature could stop us from ruthlessly conquering Germany. I’ll have a full update of stories and pictures sometime in the next couple of days. Until then, whet your whistles with this little video. Stops on the trip included Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Munich, Berlin, Hanover and Amsterdam. We put like 6000 km on our rental van. Best trip ever.

Some people would characterize Brandon Lalonde’s riding with a number of tailwhips, and spins. Not the case here, as he’s been floating some solid tables lately. Here he snaps one in the bowl at CP, while some goomba creeps in to the background shot.

Boxjump Progress

boxjump-prework

Brandon Lalonde threw this photo up on Facebook of some of the work he and Roland have been doing so far on the construction of the Orleans boxjump. Construction has begun, and it shouldn’t be long before the hard work of many pays off for the enjoyment of all. This is the caption Brandon wrote:

ORLEANS BOXJUMP!!!!!!!!! Roland is the man. We cut all the transitions in about 5 hours. This thing is going to be amazing. Next step: assembly.

Rumor Mill

Tommy got brain surgery!

Tommy got brain surgery! He should be riding again in about a year. In the meantime he is resting and dreaming of 450 whips over hips. He has kept very busy and has been a leading hand in getting the soon to be Orleans box jump. Go Tommy Go! We'll slow down on the x-games tricks so you can catch up.

Another Haircut Nick Video

Barhaven’s finest, Nick Haircut B., just posted another bangin’ web video.

White Room

So I just finished a project I’ve been working on for almost a year. Its a short stop motion film which was written by my friend Jimm Moir (the guy who writes most of my stuff) and animated by myself over hundreds of frustrating but rewarding hours. I’m planning to submit this one to the Ottawa Animation Festival this summer, but here is a sneak peak for you guys.

rich curved wall

Rich Redmond might have grown ass man responsibilities, but he still knows how to get down. Curved wallride in the heart of Toronto’s financial district, with Leland Nightingale (*edit: photographer name changed) behind the lens.
