Greg, Riley and I just arrived home from an amazing trip to florida! We drove down and spent 2 in a half weeks in the sun. Our buddy Alex Armbruster Flew down and joined us for a week aswell! We hit OWC, McCormick's, and rode lots of boat on lake holden. It was an awesome time and we hope to be back soon! Thanks to everyone for all the hook ups and the good times! Footage to come...
Last fall, my brother and I got the opportunity to work as stunt performers on the 3rd Twilight movie, "Eclipse". I played the part of a newborn vampire in the army named "Tristan" and Riley doubled the leader of the vampire army whose character name was also "Riley". haha. My sister was watching Oprah yesterday when they announced they would be showing the "Eclipse" trailer for the first time. So she called all of us in to come see. There are a few clips where u can spot me running, diving, or being jumped on by wolves. i have a brown hoodie with a blue stripe on the sleeve! Rileys' character is in all black and he is a little harder to spot in the trailer but will hopefully have some more in the movie. Our Friends from fast motion stunt team in montreal were also involved. Yan Lecomte is thrown off a car and eaten by wolves. Matt Ledoux can be spotted walking, running, and being tackled by wolves!
You can spot a bunch of us in the still shot of the video before you press play.
We just found out about this bike park that the city built in kitchener. Really sweet to have something this good so close to home. I think we will be spending a lot of time here this summer. Yesterday Ian, Justin, AJ, Brayden and myself filmed a little bit and put together a short edit for yeuhh!
Last week, I joined Alex Armbruster and some other bros for a session at cjs skatepark in Etobicoke. First time on a real vert ramp and it was lots of fun! Visit the roll toronto blog and read the VERT IS NOT DEAD post and check out some of the pics!
I really liked what greg did with his audio post... some great tracks buddy! So i thought i would contribute the second one... Here is a really nice tune that im diggin these days!
Our French Friend Matt Ledoux has been getting the rollerblade community talking, with his crazy innovative moves and different outlook on what can be done on skates. In my opinion... He has the best style of any pro skater today and I enjoy watching him skate more than anyone! Props to Matt! Keep it goin bro! Here is his latest park edit...
Our buddy Greg Oldham just purchased a new Canon 7d... so he's been having lots of fun snappin pics and some vids lately. Here is his first edit of some ice racing!
I was just going through some edits and found this... Its a little fight scene we shot at the monkey vault training centre in toronto a while back! http://www.themonkeyvault.com
3 days prior to filming this, my brother and I indulged upon a "Bolthouse farms" vanilla chia tea drink. To our surprise, this led to severe food poisoning for both of us. Leaving us very sick with some very unpleasant symptoms. On this day I was feeling better enough to go play in the park, but still felt very "buzzed". I feel this edit portrays the "off" vibe that still lingered within us making everything seem like a weird dream. Although the food poisoning was a negative experience, the post traumatic chai feelings I experienced became oddly enjoyable as I learned to except and embrace them. Hence the "vanilla chai buzz"
Friday night Jake, Brayden, Holly, Riley Alex and I ended up at Moose for a late dinner. Pretty standard kind of events when on an outing with the wonderful company of Alex the nellitron.
Just through together some footage from a gym session when i was out west back in october... Good times with the PKBC boys! Thanks to everyone for the fun and to Jordan Davis and Shawn Robidoux for their awesome taxi service!
Brayden, Alex, Jake and I headed up to Muskoka with Brayds boat in early May to work on our tans. It ended up being pretty cold and rainy so heres a little edit of what we did to kill time...
Thanks to Adam for having us to his place the first night! Cant wait to get back out on the water in a few months.
If anyone is looking for a pro HD camera I have a Sony HVR-V1U for sale. It comes with a bag and everything that originally came with it. Send an email if you're interested!
Its been plenty cold lately, but there is a serious lack of snow. We haven't even been out on the snowmobiles once this year. With the recent purchase of some ice tires for our bikes, we aren't missing the snow much anymore. We have only had 2 sessions so far and it is slightly addicting. Lots of fun! Edits coming soon!
We have been planning on getting this blog going for months now... its taken us a while to actually sit down and start... but we finally did! we have a huge back log of edits to finish and post so you can expect to see lots of goods comin your way!
stay tuned for updates... edits will be posted as soon as we have them done.
questions or comments? send us an email... jonesbros.info@gmail.com
We arrived home from our powder slaying mission in pemberton bc. pretty stoked on life! We assembled a crew for some fun in the gym. It was just before xmas so most ppl were off work or school so attendance was high! 2 nights in a row... have a look!
Me and the boys headed up to my cottage in Muskoka to ski Moon Stone in late December '09. Filming for about an hour to get a little mini edit out of our trip. Riley wasnt skiing today because of a bail he took the day before.
Me Riley and Yan lecomte headed to Whistler for the last day of the season to get some mental rentals and go downhill biking hard core Chea! It was CRAAAZZY FUN!
Sometimes parkour isn't about huge gaps and drops, or the newest craziest tricks... This was filmed when I was staying in Vancouver BC with some friends from "fast motion"; Mathieu Ledoux, Yan Lecomte and Alison Cote. We were in a beautiful place at the base of Grouse Mountain in North Van. We went out on this nice day to play around at the school across the road, and try to capture some moments and feelings . With the mountains all around and the perfect sunny weather, it was a great day!
Back in March of 2009 Brayden, Alex, Cody and I took a trip down to Orlando for some early season wakeboarding. We spent about a week at OWC and a day riding behind Cathy Williams Tige on her home lake in Orlando. A dope trip that got pulled together last minute with a randomly assembled crew.
Needed a parkour demo to give to a stunt coordinator in toronto last minute... so through together what footage i had and came out with a decent demo... -BJones
