Island Weekend.... Round 2

I left my cell phone in Victoria last weekend. Needless to say I didn't mind having my phone but at the same time I hate how Dependant we are on those little pieces of technology. I had the option of coming back to Vic for a birthday party tonight and since my phone was already there I decided it would be a good idea to go haha. But the difference this time is that I have all my gear and I dragged Sean Hanebury and Gilbert with me as well! So keep you heads up from some Vic updates at the begging on the week, everyone have a bangin weekend and enjoy this steezin front feeble from Jordan Repin!


Jordan Repin - Front Feeble

Legal errrrr Where!

Today was Remembrance Day but more importantly it was Gilbert's birthday yesterday! Hes now 21 years young and officially legal to do whatever the hell he wants anywhere in the world HOLLLAAA! So next time you see that fool skating around tell him happy birthday twice just because he hates having it said to him haha. Since Gilbert is now a man it seems fitting that he would throw this Inward heel down the man sized Hot Spot 5 block, GET SOME!


Gilbert Turenne - Inward Heel

Warm Ups

This spot turned out to be the new home of the DC showroom and before construction was completed, we were lucky enough to get a sesh in. Along with these warm up tricks, both Gilbert and Marten got their bangers and ultimately the only tricks to go down these 2 beast spots.

Also here is a sick underground sesh yesterday from Trint on that Video Camera and skating from Gilbert, Joey Moore, and John Moir to keep you lurkin, HOLLA!

Vacation Weekend

Got away to Victoria for Brandon Wells birthday in Victoria. It was a perfect weekend for it cause it rained the whole time, so I didn't have to feel bad about not skating or shooting haha. Hopefully everyone had a great weekend like I did, if not this huge 15 foot Ollie by Dylan Timmins will cheer you up! Ya naaa meeannn


Dylan Timmins - Ollie

Yeeeeeziiirrrr

When its nice you have to go skate, in the day or at night. Over the weekend there was amazing Autumn weather so we headed downtown Saturday and Sunday to sesh! Gilbert threw down multiple times and this beautiful three flip was one of them!



Tonight Sean and me just so happened to be heading back to West Van at the same time. I was hyped because I so happened to have my camera gear and there was a photo we had been wanting to shoot for a couple days and this was the time to get it done! Sean smoothly ollies up the first bench and then gaps to Front Lip then we hop on the bus and go home haha. Now I'm hittin the sac, pppppeaceeeee!

Gilbert's Trickipedia

Despite the beautiful weekend, we have had a lot of rain as well. Gilbert likes to skate... a lot, so him and Trint went out and filmed Gilbert's Trickipedia! So remember, even when its raining you can go work on them flatground tricks booooiiiii!

Happy Halloweeennnnn

Halloween brought some of the nicest weather we've seen in awhile! Beautiful blue skies, a nice breeze and fall colours all over the place! Got lots of seshin done today and some stuff accomplished. The last couple days haven't been so dry, so here is a underground sequence from Gilbert and a short edit thrown together from Clayton. Hope everyone has a sick night, go blow some stuff up!!

And Then It Pours

So Gilbert and me are hyped after work to go get some filming done with our homie Trint Thomas but soon as we got to Park Royal it started to piss down. So we decided to meet up at the North Van underground spot to get some skating in. Gilbert threw down a bunch of shit as usual and I actually got to sesh a bit myself for once! Anyways heres a little something Geoff Dermer threw down at the new Monke Park.


Geoff Dermer - Half Cab Board Back 270 Out

Van-Germany

You don't actually realize how much of a pull the Movie Industry has on Vancouver until your crusin down the street turn a corner and all of a sudden your in Germany. Buses driving by are German, advertisements are German, all the cars have German license plates and even German Police and SWAT vehicles! Needless to say it is one of the sickest things you could stumble upon when out skating! I didn't feel like shooting a sequence cause that's all I've been doing as of late so here is a still of Sean doing a buttery ass front board to switch back 5-0 on a buttery ass marble ledge in the heart of Germany hahaha!


Sean Hanebury - Front Board to Switch Back 5-0

Swine Flu

Isn't real, its just a common cold. If you think it is more than that your retarded haha. But anyways were all sick as shi with some sort of sickness right now, so since were all in one place at once for a change we have a guest update from Mr. Gilbert Turenne!

What up yall this time around G Bear updating this shi so lets get it on last sunday. Trint and me went skating at lons then ended the session at the IGA underground. A few days after Clay, Matt, Sean and me, where supposed to meet up at Park Royal to get some stuff done but ended up missing each other by a few minutes and the spot, lame eh, but whatevs. I got a clip with Clay and Sean got a sequential with matt so enjoi! Peace out y'all!


Sean Hanebury - Front Lip to Five - OHHHHHHH

Can't Skate in the Rain Skate Indoors

When life give you rain, you skate indoors.... or underground haha. The weekend was filled with rain but that didn't stop us from going out and finding a way to get some shit done. Friday was a good ol' chill underground sesh, and sunday I got a sneak peak of the new Monke / Kitsch indoor skate park at their warehouse. I think it opens to the public at the end of this week so if your hurtin for a skate make your way out there! Its basically like a mini Berics and I dont feel like explaining all the stuff thats in there so your gonna have to go check it haha. Anyways heres a going away seqeunce for Houli as hes back to Japan in two days, we'll miss you homie!


Trevor Houlihan - Nollie Lip, to Nosegrind Revert

All In One Day?

While me and Clayton were off doing thangs, Gilbert decided he also wanted to go do some thangs. Gilbert and North Van filmer, Trint Thomas hit up Lonsdale on a mission to film a whole montage in a day. You might think it would be hard to film a montage by yourself in a day but Gilbert seems to have endless tricks in the bag. So have a watch and enjoy, also heres a nicely executed frontside flip from Mr. Trevor Houlihan, HOLLA!

Thanks giving montage from 7rint on Vimeo.

0 and 3?

Well hockey season is back and that means that I am awaiting another 79 regular season games to see if the Canucks finally cruise through the playoffs to a Stanley Cup victory. Unfortunately they aren't off to a good start but whatevs I know they'll pull through HOLLA GO CANUCKS, hahaha. Anyways had a sick weekend out filming for Skate City Vancouver, (which is a show Clayton and I are helping to produce with our good homie Dan Kelly), our lil Protege Jaydon was over to visit also Lil Sean Hanebury moved into our garage where he'll be crashing till he finds a place of his own. The weekends never seem to last and next thing you know your in the middle of the week again, damn time flys. Gilbert also likes to get up with them Jets with this huge kickflip 11 over sidewalk gap, dammmnnnnnnnn hommmmmiieeee!

I Hate Rain

I don't hate many things but rain is one of the few! I can dig snow cause you can go shred and jib around the city and shit but when it comes to rain you cant do anything. Unfortunately Mother Nature is slowly reminding us that fall is around the corner so I guess I'm just going to have to deal with it haha. Anyways as usual things are busy around here. Got back from a nice weekend on the island where me and Trevor went to pick up my drumsfrom home and got to hang out with some homies. Other than that everyone has been skating and filming up a storm! I some how managed to film a line, not sure how long its been but none the less here it be, also heres a text book back smith from Marten!

On it

Dylan Timmins made it out from the Island and on saturday we went out with a good sized crew to hit some spots up around plaza. Dylan's brother Reed came out from Langley and met up with us while the rest of the crew consisted of Mike Campbell, Desmond Hootsie, Seth Cardinal, Marten Maxwell and myself. Along the way we came across this spot and Dylan took a different approach to it and came thru with this gnarly clip of the day.

Good Bye Summer

Well it had to happen eventually but fall is now here. Days are shorter and its getting cold as shi at night and in the morning. But what ya gonna do, luckily the weather doesn't get to bad till late October so there is still lots of shooting and skating to be done! If you guys have a bunch of free time there is the Underworld Best Trick Contest article on SBC's website and the Damn Am Article on Concrete that I covered if you want to do some internet lurkin. Hope everyone had a sick weekend and don't forget to get your shine on, HOLLA!

And Another One Bites The Dust

As predicted another epic weekend rushed by all to fast yet again, but so much got done it doesn't even matter! Damn Am on Saturday was amazing, so much sick shit went down it was hard to remember. Today was an epic sesh, Clayton and I went out with a bunch of the Underworld dudes, Dan Kelly, Gilbert and Marten to sesh around West Van and wow did shit get done! Marten got almost 3 different tricks and also suffered one hell of a bruised hip (get better brotha!) and Gilbert got a beast of a trick done as well! I must say we couldn't have asked for a better weekend and I hope everyone had a great one too! Heres a tasty warm up 50-50 through the kink from Marten, hit em high hit em high, hit em low hit em low!!!


Marten Maxwell - 50-50

It Be The Weekend

It seems the weeks fly by so fast and the weekends fly by even faster. Which Isn't too fair if you ask me but as is life haha. This weekend is going to be a goodin with Damn Am today at Bonsor Skatepark so Mr. Groenendyk will be out there covering that, then tomorrw Marten gets back from his birtday and well be off to get some street footy! So as per usual we have another busy amazing weekend. The Instrumental boys are out in the woods skating a mini ramp and we are super bummed we couldn't make it but duty calls, Sorry Boys!!! In the spirt here is a beastly heelflip from Jamie with some of the beautiful Somass River in the background, have a great weekend everyone and skate hard holla!

Make Things Happen!

Everyday people sit around and watch their lives fly by them. See I have mad ADD or ADHD whatever you want to call it, basically I'm hyper as shit. So when it comes down to it I have an easier time getting off my ass and going out and doing something cause I get bored in about 5 minutes of doing nothing. What I'm trying to get at is you live once so start making moves towards what you want in life. Not in a week, or on the weekend, or tomorrow, start working towards that dream now! Everything thats good in life takes work to get it so I would like to welcome Marten Maxwell as my new roommate, and new housemate for the rest of us! Marten has bounced off that rock I call home to make shit happen in the city so get hyped for some new footage and photos coming from him right quick! So in the spirit of things heres a quick video Clayton made up of Marten of when he came for a visit in the summer. You might have watched it already but suck it up and watch that P Rod nollie heel a couple more times! Also here is a nice looking kicky flip from Gilbert!
