Throwback Thursday
Posted by Landozine - 02/05/12 at 03:05:43 pmSo I cleaned out my old PC to give to Steve and I took all the old videos off of it and found this GEM. Back in like 2005 Jeff and I drove to Ottawa to ride Jose’s Freuben contest. It was one of the best contests I have ever ridden, super fun, super epic, but I ended up taking all the MTB footage and making a little joke compilation that ended up pissing off the entire MTB community in Ottawa. I remember reading the MTB Kanata boards and seeing people threatening to beat me up if I ever came back to Ottawa. (Note: I moved here the next year and nobody said nothing. Pussies) Anyhow, the video ends with Rich Redmond making his MTB debut and winning best trick or some shit with a tailwhip over the box jump (that shit was unheard of at that time). And for his BMX insolence I flipped him the bird at the end of the video, with hilarious results.
Throwback Thursday – Party Time.
Posted by Landozine - 24/02/11 at 08:02:02 pmWith one of the year’s biggest party weekends coming up on us quickly (Not-So-Metro/Dance Cave Extravaganza) it only seems fitting that I should upload some photos from one of the most fun BMX parties I can remember. Namely, the night we partied in Hull and Jeff lost his pants.

Silver Screen Saturday
Posted by Landozine - 29/01/11 at 01:01:57 pmEntertainment for a snowy Saturday. I present to you Landozine Episode 3; the third instalment in the epic Landozine saga. Its clear to most that it was with this video that I learned how to apply effects, and in some cases I may have gone a bit overboard but it was all in good fun. There is alot of great riding in here. My favourite parts are definitely Derek Jokinen’s and Jeff Bedard’s. Walter Fellbaum has a hilarious song choice as well.
Throwback Thursday: A few more from 1984

A few more pictures from 1984 (this is a guess) McLennan,AB. These were taken by my buddy Norm Blais and are pretty much the only pictures I know of from back in the day. So many good memories. The main crew was Norm, his brother Dean, my cousin Marc Viens, and myself. This ramp was across the street from the hospital I was born in, the building in the immediate background was my grade school, and if you look above it you see the steeple of the church I was baptized in. Roland this is your life….

Throwback Thursday
Posted by Landozine - 06/01/11 at 01:01:21 pm
Jorden and I were talking about this the other day, back when the 206 house was still around and Ted Bambrick still graced Ottawa with his presence he used to boast about being able to feel the tiniest weight differences on his bike (like changing his axle nuts to titanium, or taking 2 pins out of his pedals) so as a joke we put a hotdog (pictured above) into his bike via the seat tube. Not only did he not notice it when he went riding later that day, he didn’t notice it until it had shrivelled up to a hard little ballpark frank sized turd and started to rattle around inside his frame. I only wish I had pictures of that.

Posted by Roland - 30/09/10 at 02:09:49 amAs far as I know this is the first flair by an Ottawa rider. This is the only clip I have but it was part of 4 or 5 week long solo flair fest.

Another 2005 throwback of Rich Redmond with a tailwhip gap at the old Ottawa Skatepark while filming for Scene Here. Time flies. I don’t even remember who shot this, but I’m holding a video camera in the background.

This Throwback Thursday is brought to you by the fearless Remi Cyr, floating a (bowlegged) 270 table over the hip at CP back in 2006. It begs the question of few past names of the Ottawa scene, where are they now?
