Ode to Duff Grove
The Northern Embassy dropped this new video paying tribute to a spot we’ve seen dozens of times in the past, Duff Grove! It might not be much, but it sure looks like it’s a good time to ride! Check out some footage from a few familiar faces last summer!
“In the middle of the city of Toronto, known for its street riding, lays Dufferin Grove Park, or Duff Grove as it is commonly known. Full with a community garden, bone fire pits, and a Thursday evening farmer’s market, it also contains a make shift wooden park that bike riders and skateboarders make the best of. Certain times of the season it may be in total disrepair, and other times it may seem like it is running smoothly. Made of mostly donated ramps (one of which is from us) and rails, the community pitches in where they can to keep this place going.
It’s not a glamorous spot by any means, but it is where you will often find riders looking for a mellow session without having to pedal far, hanging out with their friends without much concern. From locals to riders visiting from out of town that day, it’s our warm up spot, meet up spot, or just where we unwind after a work day. It’s probably the one spot I ride the most all summer long, and some evenings I would pull out my camera from my pocket and try to film a bit of what an average night there is like. Check out this short video of assorted stuff I filmed this past summer with Chijioke Okafo, Trent Barker, Chris Cadot, Greg Henry, Lee Dennis, Brandon Webster, and Chris Silva.

Rob DiQuattro – #NahForRealWeOutHere
A little snow isn’t going to keep Rob DiQuattro from putting his pegs to use! This is dedication or insanity… I haven’t decided, haha.
N2T – Phil Aller Birthday Edit
It was Phil Aller’s birthday yesterday, so Matt Nicklen dug through his hard drive and put together a bunch of clips he was sitting on for something special! Check out a bunch of real good clips from some chill sessions at a few different parks! I am stoked on this one!
JC Pieri – Quick Hang-5
Well… It’s official. JC Pieri is the hang five god! Watch this!
“When we did this line we really hoped we will do this first try because there is no way for me or my friend who filmed this to do this long line a second time ^^
And we got really lucky to pull it first try ^^
Big big thanks to Sam de Salvador for filming this line
Bmx is fun” – JC Pieri

Welcome to Poland – Damian Onufrak Winter Edit
It might be cold outside, but Total BMX‘s Damian Onufrak turns up the heat in this new video! Take a peek!
“Didn’t someone once say, ‘The coldest winter I ever spent was a Polish winter’? No? Well, it was something like that. The point is that Polish winters are not kind to bikers. Luckily, Wroclaw native, Damian Onufrak has a nice, warm park that he can nestle into when the thermometer drops below zero and the snow begins to drift. Onufrak’s specialty is mixing really technical street moves with big box-jumping tricks. While he’s at it, the kid puts more dents and scratches on his ride than a car in a demolition derby. But you can’t make an omelet without breaking some eggs, right? Someone actually did say that. “
