It was a big surprise that morning when the guys at Color Magazine told me about that exhibition there were doing. It’s always been a fantasy to be a part of that kind of things between the ones of the best photographers in the Skateboard industry. I’m really proud to represent the Québec skateboard scene here.
Thank you very much Gordon Nicholas, and all the guys at Color who treated really well the last year!
How i could start better 2012?
just check the name bellow to (re) discovery the artists, and if you are in Vancouver the 19th January, all the infos are here on Facebook.
Happy New Year y’all!

This is the official last post on this blog for the year of 2011! So many things happenned this year, and 2012 is not even started, that i have already some good projects coming up.
Happy Holidays to all, i wish you the best for 2012!
I like happy ending, so let’s finish it with the guys from Mehrathon Trading and their now official Christmas Skate Mixtape.
If you remember the volume one from the last year, you will love the 2011 edition.
This year the theme was the late 90’s. If you were a skateboarder in this period, you were probably into west & east coast hiphop, Gino Iannucci, Mike Carroll, Stevie Williams, Beastie Boys, Cypress Hill, RB Umali, Tony Ferguson, Richard Mulder, Joey Suriel, Jon Montessi, Quim Cardonna, Danny Supa, Peter Bici, Jeff Pang, Danny Montoya, Notorious BIG, Wu Tang Clan, The Pharcyde, Snoop Dog…
Guess what? they are all in the mix! Enjoy.

It ain’t easy to be a company owner in these days, especially in the skateboard industry. Radio Skateboards is a small bro’ company from Quebec. And this years it’s been 10 years since they are producing boards. I got this picture of Conor Neeson and Gabriel De Lery running into their catalogue. Have a look on it here!

Wasteland, in Oakland, CA was a sick DIY skate spot, made by local skateboarders but unfortunatly the city decided it was not appropriate to let people pratice skateboarding there.. At Projet45 a few weeks ago we had the idea to do a replica of the tombstone pyramid in the memory of the Oak’ Spot. the Ol’ famous Deluxe dist. website posted my picture of Yanick flying over the tombstone. Thanks guys, we appreciate it. R.I.P Wasteland!
