bigquotesFor the last few months Julien kept talking about how sick it would be to go and ride the studio where he works. He kept telling us that there is a super steep vert wall that they use for photo shoots, and how nice it would be to snap pictures and film there since its all white and clean. We were into the idea since the start, but never really thought about it that much. Then one day he told us that the studio was moving to a new location shortly, so it was soon time to act. We talked about it for a bit, and one night we headed there with the bikes and all the shooting gear. So here we are, on the third floor of a big old building in Montreal, chillin' inside a studio. We wanted to shoot some casual pictures before we started to ride because it was just such a nice opportunity that we might never get again, so we rode the flat ground for a bit before hitting up the wall. Check out the photos from the night below!

 So f*cking rad guys! Great idea, great video, and great shots. A lot of creativity went into the project, and the riding, especially given such a small area/feature to work with.

some real talent here.

 I went to a similar photo studio in montreal recently and we kept talking about how crazy it would be to ride the wall (but we couldn't, it had to remain white...). Sometimes it doesn't take much to generate a lot of fun.

 I like the wall, the tire marks look cool. if the marks where coloured (ride through paint) rather than black i would call it art..
