Spitfire X Canada Collab

I got an email from the DLX guys kinda randomly one day. They were looking for a mellow tricks of Antoine Asselin for a Spitfire X Canada web ad.

They said they would send me a couple wheels for the pic, which was totally cool. Click here see the original post of both Antoine and Decenzo together.

It's awesome how things work sometimes, thanks to the DLX guys for hitting me up and using this photo! Hyped. Thanks guys for the wheels and shirts too!

Super Decenzo Bros in Color Magazine

Color Magazine came out with this awesome Super Decenzo Bros interview, featuring the amazing talents of Ryan and Scott Decenzo, who are on a insane skateboarding killing spree. This interview (at least the photos I shot) were done in basically a 2 week period, with the exception of the heelflip shove in London.

I was soo lucky that Color wanted me to shoot them for this interview, plus as many featured lifestyle photos as possible. Thanks to Color and the Decenzo's for all their time!

Hotel California in Concrete Magazine

Hyped!! They did a article on my skate hostel.. I mean house!

So here is the story, for years my house was the skate hostel of many sorts. Had everyone staying here, passing through, staying and living from Europe, Australia and of course Canada. I pitched an article idea to Concrete about all these canadians who come and stay at my house, such as Magnus Hanson, Ryan and Scooter Decenzo, Brad Sheppard just to name a few. They were hyped on the idea and we started formulating. It was awesome, and after a couple months it finally surfaced.

Thanks to Rich Odam and Frank Daniello for helping me out kinda fill in the holes beautifully and help me with my shitty writing, respectively. Also thanks to the skaters who shredded and the guys at Concrete for hooking it up! VIVA LA HOTEL CALIFORNIA. (click here for the article)

A chat with Ryan Decenzo on Redbull Skateboarding

I just finished/posted a short chat with Ryan Decenzo on Red Bull Skateboarding,com

It was really short and just a quick overview on what the hell he is doing right now, but not really, because he moves and changes soo fast. At the point of this interview he was in Montreal, but I just skated with him yesterday, soo apparently the kids on-the-go. He mentioned he is finishing up his UBF#5 part for Globe, so check that out when its released.

Another Decenzo Day.

Another skate day with Ryan Decenzo. Joining us is Antoine and Nick "Promqueen" (fsboard pictured left) as they call him. As I might have mentioned before, Ryan is a super awesome dude as the other two, so we shredded in the local area, which is easy on the gas. What also makes skating with them easy, is they are rather keen on skating anything, so its not a ton of driving!

The trick that Ryan is doing above, he told me is called a Joe Dirt. "Brad Sheppard made it up." he announces as we walks back up the stairs after landing one. Apparently what this trick is "It's where you boardslide and you droop it soo far down to your trucks so the metal is grinding."
A little bit about Antoine: Dude is a french canadian, and contrary to your inital thoughts, he is quite the radical dude. Still talks very french, but super funny and laughs when I say some random gay joke, which make him the best dude to hang with (anyone who laughs at my shitty jokes is a pal in my book.)

Ryan Decenzo and his Dakine Ad


Ryan and I skated this one day in Huntington, with Mr. Mark White, plus Lutzka and a couple other dudes where there. Eitherway, the sprinklers went on, and the water started to drain right in front of the rollup. Well, that didn't stop Ryan, and why should it... He's Canadian, they practically sleep in water/nature. If you notice (this was second try and the actual land) their is water spots flying off his board. If you see the ad, take a good look, you will see them. Thanks to Dakine for using this photo, awesome guys!
