Damn Am Canada - 2009Posted by: Paul Rak |Tagged in: Skateboarding , Nathan LaCoste , Monster Energy , Magnus Hanson , Jeffrey Marshall , Chad Dickson , billabong , Alex Chalmers , Adam Hopkins
Bonser Skatepark
The industry watches these events closely, and it's a great place for skaters to show what they can do, and have a great time doing it.
Day One - Bowl Jam and High Ollie Contest A perfect Bowl Jam would be having Alex Chalmers as a guest judge and occasionally having him drop-in to show the skaters some lines. Well, that is exactly what happened. Alex is well known and respected in the skateboard world for his smooth and progressive bowl riding. Chalmers stoked the other skaters to get into the mood for the best trick jam. Highlights include Nathan LaCoste backside smith grinding at mach speeds and Adam Hopkins pulling off a trick on almost every corner and hip in the bowl, giving him the win.

Summer End Skate Jam RecapPosted by: Paul Rak |Summer End Skate Jam
The Summer End Skate Jam was the final event of the series and the none pressure jam format was enjoyed by all. The skaters moved from obstacle to obstacle throwing down their sickest tricks, and as best tricks were landed they were rewarded with cold hard cash.
With DJ Kutcorners playing great tunes, the Monster Energy Mobile Ambassador Team (M.A.T.) sampling to the thirsty skaters and the sun shinning, the day couldn’t get better. After the event, skaters and friends carried on to Shine Nightclub. There they celebrated their winnings in fine form as they partied to the late hours in the Monster Energy VIP area.

Standard Films Black Winter Premier Pumps Up 350 Heads in Calgary, AlbertaPosted by: Joanna Majcherkiewicz |Tagged in: Torstein Horgmo , Standard Films , Raewyn Reid , Mission Snow and Skate , Leanne Pelosi , Dustin Craven , Calgary , Black Winter
Yesterday evening Standard Films Black Winter debuted to a sold out audience of more than 350 people in the prairie city of Calgary, Alberta. People began to amass at The Plaza Theatre over an hour and half before the movie was set to begin and frantically tap the Steam Whistle beer and Monster Energy reserves. Albertans are savages; a reputation supported not only by their massive secret jumps but also by their massive bar tabs (it’s part of their appeal). Especially savage is Calgary’s weather. It might be ‘summer’ as you enter the theatre and ‘winter’ as you leave so it’s in your best interest to pay close attention to the movie and build that trick list because you might be snowboarding sooner than you thought.
Faces began to stream into the theatre and amongst the anticipation some of Canada’s finest riders could be seen shuffling into the theatre including Raewyn Reid, Dustin Craven and late arrival Leanne Pelosi. With a good sprinkling of celebrity athletes in attendance, and the sound of smuggled beers being uncomfortably opened, it was show time! Footage that really had people going was Monster Energy athlete Torstein Horgmo’s insane park follow-cam and Xavier Delerue’s savage rock lines. Chas Guldemond’s part was also one to soak up because he completed an entire video part in spite of spending most of his time at contests landing tricks with obscene rotations and gymnast precision (recall that Chas recently led the TTR World Tour by landing on the podium of almost every major slope style contest in the world). Monster Energy athlete Leanne Pelosi had some respectable rail representation and shares a section with always-colourful Andrew Geeves. There was also abundant avalanche footage in Black Winter, leading one to wonder if perhaps those close calls were the inspiration for the movie’s title.
