Adrenaline Fest New Brunswick
Hey everyone, I wanted to post something about the Adrenaline Festival in New Brunswick which took place a couple weeks ago at Sugarloaf Mtn. It was my first experience there and I really enjoyed it! The mountain is a small one, but it’s so sick to ride. The trails are perfectly build and the mountain is used as it’s full potencial.
5 competition took place during this weekend. Pumptrack challenge, pond-crossing, air-downhill, slopestyle and finally downhill. I swear to you, there’s no time to get bored. I entered 4 of the 5 comp and I found myself riding a bike all day long. Good times. 
Here’s a view of Bastien Major and the half of the pumptrack
Pond-crossing was the funniest competition of all. We had to ride on small wood bridge supported buy big tube. It was sketchy, more than the 3/4 didn’t make it to the other side, me included.
Marc André Roy doing huge backflips during the best tricks event, just after the slopstyle.
Finish jump which was used for both air-DH and DH.
Have a look to the racap made by Maaxxevents http://www.pinkbike.com/forum/listcomments/?threadid=137866&pagenum=1#commentid4574045
The Adrenaline Fest is certainly an event that you’ll hear about because it will get bigger and bigger through the years. See you there next year!

Photoshoot with KSP Production
I made a photoshoot at the end of June and I tought it would be cool to share some pictures. The shoot was in some trails near my home, a really cool place to ride. KSP Production is a young photograph that mostly shoots automotive stuff. He wanted some change and here is the result!
If you want to see all the photoshoot just go on my facebook. To see some of the stuff Keven’s doing go on his website http://www.ksp-productions.com/
You can also have a look to the video we made this winter used as a test for a summer video! http://www.pinkbike.com/video/248706/

Nice to meet you
Hey what’s up everyone, now is your chance to read my first blog as a Race Face rider. You probably have no idea who I am so let me introduce myself quickly. I’m 21 years old and I love biking. I got into DH racing at the age of 14. I mostly race Quebec Cups, Canada Cups and North American World Cups. I also ride BMX and XC/AM to train.
For the past 3 years, I’ve teamed up with JP Simard, a good friend of mine who’ve helped me a lot through biking. He worked hard to build me one of the nicest bike on earth! A CUSTOM 2012 Kona Operator! Check the pics
Also new for 2012, I’m now a proud RaceFace rider. I’m so stoke to be part of the RaceFace family. To my eyes, this company has always been a big icon in the mountain bike industry and to have the opportunity to represent them is a privilege.
So this season has definitely started good as I finished school and started racing here and there. Stay tune to know what’s going on in the upcoming weeks. Also, add me on Facebook, I wanna be your friend!
Cheers!
