The Calgary Skate channel is here. It'll be growing over the next while and I assure you that you'll have a big streaming channel full of Calgary longboarding and fun times for all.
Just a video of some skating that has been going down recently. Shot on Taylor's GoPro. Feels nice to work with some HD stuff sometimes.Filmed by Graeme, Taylor, Lee, Ian, HarryEdited by GraemeSkating done by mostly Taylor, Lee, and Graeme, but also Ian, Scotty, Gary, and Jeff W.Music: Song 1 by DJ Krush
Good city bombin' and slide sesh day while alot of our CS brethren are away at Maryhill, freeriding the day away. Good times were had by all. Well maybe not Erik, he ended up dislocating his shoulder during his second run. Kinda sucks, but eh, that's the breaks. Hope he feels better soon and can come out and skate again.Riders: Jeremy, Erik, Eric, Evyn, Graeme, Yonz, Eric's girlfriend (name has totally slipped my mind), ScottyMusic: Jolly Joint by Urbs And CutexFilmed by mostly Evyn, a few fol...
A great thanks to a Mr. Jeff Wilkins, Sayshun, CS, Royal and Smurf Mackenzie for making this event awesome! This was a great event with an awesome setup and GNARLY hill. But of course (like usual as of late) George took it all. Hopefully he'll be dethroned next part in the series. And some E-town boys came out! Mike and Nick filled up the podium and looked great doing it (minus the mustache from Nick).Music: Neighbours by Antimaniax
SoCow alleys in Calgary. TAKE THAT EDMON...SUCK.Haha I kid, I kid. But still, this is a quick little video, just for fun and to show that this channel is still alive and kicking.Also, where the hell is the snow? Looks like we missed winter this year...Riders: Riley, Ken, Jeff (Not appearing in this film)Music: Scat Like Dat by Tung Twista
Calgary busts it's way up to Edmonton on Halloween morning for an outlaw and it was lots of fun guys! Thanks to Shello for holding this. Great race, very tight with Sanders, Kevin, Nick, and Georgie. But Georgie came out on top! ...Again!Music: See You In Hell by Grim Reaper (as suggested by Shello)
Ya, I know it's weird I didn't pick the song You Know My Steez for the video, but I was really stoked on using the Drop It Tough Remix. All in all, great contest though. We beat the snow by about 12 hours and the boys ripped it way hard. George ended up taking it due to the standups he was able to pull at least twice the speed every other person there could, but Jeff came in only a fraction of a point behind George for second due to his grace and variety. Ty took 3rd for his crazy street skate...
Hitting pathways after a Calgaryskate Sunday Cruise!
SICK day. Not enough people showed up for the outlaw in the morning so it ended up being a 5 person chinese DH style outlaw. After that we went and grabbed some breakfast, skated Patterson, Home Depot and the Ninja Paths. Fun times!Riders: Bean, Blaine, George, Tony, FrankShuttling/driving: Tyler Peckham and BeanFilmed by: GraemeMusic: I'm Coming Home (Woodstock) by Ten Years AfterWWW.CALGARYSKATE.COM
Great turn out guys! It was very fun. We had a nice kick from 14th to Prince's Island Park and back over to 14th. Probably be longer next week. So come on out every week or at least spread the word to any longboarders you know of. You don't need to be expeirenced for this at all (well, you might want to know how to push on a longboard, but that's it! Haha), it's just a lot of fun and a little social gathering with a nice cruise.Riders: Bean, Tony Graves, Phil, Anna, Taylor, Barry Taylor's Dad ...
CS turns year, here are a few favorite clips from the past...
