Insight – Jeremy Deme
Posted by Prashant - 08/11/09 at 12:11:04 pmI’ve known Jeremy Deme for roughly 8 years now. He sold me a back wheel over the internet, then I discovered that most of my friends already knew him too. Over the many years we’ve crossed paths countless times in both Ottawa and Montreal for events, contests, jams, video premieres, and just really good sessions. He’s become a friend of almost every rider here in Ottawa, all the while continuing to put out great DVD’s, web videos, and have his hand in other creative projects with his tight group of friends in Montreal. His last video, Yesterday, helped push his name (and the names of many of the other featured riders) out there in to the eyes of the BMX world, and he’s since been busy working on a much anticipated follow up. I asked Jeremy some questions in hopes of getting some insight to this new production, riding, filming, gt dropnose seats, and big changes going on in his life.

A Heinous abortion of an otherwise smooth and stylish trick- A maneuver that instantly makes you wonder how quickly you could carve into your eye socket and dig your retina out with a spoon. The trick I speak of is clearly the “downwards stretched no hander” or the “Donkey Kong”.

Corey Dewey may not be from Ottawa, but he is one of the nicest and friendliest people you will meet from Montreal. On top of that, he is a more than amazing bike rider. I asked him a few questions to find out what some of his favorite three things are on various subjects, which you can read by clicking below, as well as watch his Presence part, amongst other recent web videos.
