Jay Brown heats up Toronto with a heavy switch arsenal before Ben Paterson and the rest of the crew burn the town down.

Professional skateboarder, David Boots has been following his passion for skateboarding at Peace Park (place de la Paix) for the last 20 years. PEACE PARK is his first feature length documentary film, which shows an uncensored insider’s perspective of the communities that frequent the park and their struggle to survive Montreal’s attempts to gentrify its red-light district. It explores the ways the city and corporate interests view the people in the park, and looks at the way the two communities (the lifers and the skateboarders) manage to share the space through tolerance and respect.

Leon, Dustin and ET are stars of the show, but not without a supporting cast of heavy hitters. This is a great video.

We present to you the long awaited Dime video, Knowing Mixtape Vol. 2

As far as skate videos go, the Dimestore ones are probably as sick as they get. The comical dimension is at least as entertaining as the skating and with parts from guys like Charles Rivard or Antoine Asselin, that says a lot. Just like in their previous videos, Dime Turd Season transports you to the grimy streets Montreal with its crackheads and street fights, whilst staying loyal to their trademark recurring images and their unpredictable soundtracks. It just goes to show that the best skate videos come from the guys who don’t take themselves too seriously, no matter how talented they are.
