--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------When Vincent asked me to do some shot for his friend, Valery Blin ,who is starting a new fanzine in france. I was stoked, and accepted right away.
In this times of all digital, its important to keep the old fashion paper alive. With all this magazines who are dying one after one. Its scary to think
that people don’t buy magazine anymore, and prefer spending zillion of times behind a screen.
Long live to Rampage the new french Fanzine!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Last week end, was the second edition of Montreal Mud Rocker, created by Tribu Experientiel and pushed by Fido.
I’ve been really impressed by these badboys on 2 wheels, they won’t stop even when it’s raining hard. And it rained really hard during these two days.
They’ve kept the show pretty high (i mean really high). They were flyer all over the place!
props to you all, and see you next year.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Sometimes some work is most important than other, be a skateboarder is not everyday an easy task, cause most of the society doesn’t understand skateboarding.
i guess it’s getting harder when you are Gay, Gabe Laduke helped so much the skateboarding scene in Montreal, without him so much kids would probably give up.
Thanks so much Gabe to exist and be one of us!
here is an interview of him i did for the new issue of Kingshit Magazine.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This edition of Jackalope Fest created by Tribu, and pushed by Fido has been under pressure this year, Mother nature has decided make it rain straight during the weekend.
The crew worked his ass off to maintain the event, the people was staying even in the rain, they were here to see the show. And its must goes on.
That Nassim Lacchab from Morroco, was the best example, even under the rain, he was unable to stop skating, till he landed his tricks on the 9 stairs.. and it’s exactly what he did. The crowed was on fire at this point. Cause everybody knows the danger factor to skate under the rain, even if you never step a foot on a board.
On the other side the 13years old and less contest was off the hook, the kids went technical this year, with a good flow. Cayde McInStray (the winner) was the best example, there is definitely future pro matter here.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Most of skateboarders i’ve known, have all in common one thing, they like simple things.
its often, doing thing like hanging out with friends, eating BBQs, camping or just travelling.
Another thing often appeared, that they (we) like pets, they can be dogs,cats, snake or raccoon.
We appreciate the company of pets, and i personally love to take their photographs(both of them).
