--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Spring is almost there for pretty much everybody except for us in Canada, East Canada more precisely. It’s been always rougher and harder to skate here, but it’s what in the same time it give it more flavour. Even if we have at least a complete month before temperature came back to “normal”. We can feel here in Montreal already a spring mood in the street.
Here are some pictures from last fall 2014. It’s almost there.

It was about time,
2010 was the last time i upgraded my old portfolio, some much happened since then in my life, and it did not follow on here.
The layout looks the same at first, but has been deeply upgraded with faster and easier functions to navigate.
As well for the blog, it is still available in 4 languages, and faster loading. With a new fresh header featuring J-F Taillon.
Finally, the logo looks less ghetto and is more actual with a drop of Montreal in it.
I also invite you to follow me on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, with a different for each one. Facebook will obviously follow my actuality, while Instagram will be more personal. And Twitter about things i find interesting on the internet.
Speaking of contents, i let you discover my portfolio V.2 simply by clicking on the picture below.
Cheers!
