We are really proud to present this video of Matt Macduff shredding the streets of Montreal for
The Rise. During the summer, Matt visited us on two occasions and he wanted to make an all-street video on the beautiful Montreal grounds with Louis Lhomel behind the camera. Matt is always motivated to ride anything new and definitely knows how to adapt to his environment, wether it's small technical lines or gnarly gaps and drops. So just sit back and press play, this is the kind of video you'll be watching more than once!

even tho matt may 'mistreat' his stuff sometime. its really not that bad. its not like hes intentionally throwing his bike every trick he doesnt land.. he also gets the job done, and thats what matters to bike companies. of course hes not in front of the cameras every race and event like Gee or Gwin, so that gives him a little wiggle room and freedom to do what he wants where as WC racers have a very strict schedule and such. lets also not forget thats hes sponsored by O1, the child company of NS. just think of the persona they are trying to pull off, i think matt is the perfect match for them.
again, this is street riding were talking about here. if you havent done it long enough, you just wouldnt understand. which isnt a big deal, but riding street is VERY different than riding any other dirt discipline.
sure its not good for the bike, but its really not that bad or that big of a deal. hes a human too ya know, and sometimes he has bad days/runs as well.. the bike was just the closest thing to pay for it. some dudes beat their wife, kids, dog, kill people, etc. this is a better way to blow off steam than do something real bad
Macduff: I'm sorry bro! See you maybe... Tommorow?
Lmao.
f*ck YEAH MATT!! Amazing riding! 0_0
Sick riding
That's basically a given if you're on a street location of any kind.
A college in my home town were always really lax until somehow word got back that a big urban was going down every Wednesday, and they cracked down on us hard. Had five of the 18 arrested on the spot, and gave us straight out warnings that if they ever saw us again, we'd all go to jaillllll....
SO NEEDLESS TO SAY, we "left", went to the top of the campus (highest point), and did one HUGE run-through, hitting everything we could in one big pack!
They wanna d**k?! I'll go there. No problem!
