Here’s one of the entries from Calgary:
Jock Mentality Video
A few skaters from Cochrane have been working on their Jock Mentality video for a little while. We asked Sam Stuart, one of the dudes behind it to tell us more:
“Jock Mentality is a movie filmed and edited by Lane Mosolf. Basically Lane had a pile of ridiculous party/skateboard footage on his computer and decided he would make a video. The video was almost all filmed this summer, with some older stuff in there too. With footage from Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, Montreal, Barcelona, Paris and Rome.“
Check the trailer here:

Gian-Carlo Carra – Candidate in Ward 9
Gian-Carlo Carra is a candidate for City alderman in Ward 9. He’s helped CASE in our discussions with a private company to try and secure a building for an indoor skatepark. Gian-Carlo is a forward-thinking politician who supports skateboarding in Calgary. Even if you don’t live in Ward 9, check out his campaign platform on his website.
New Concrete Skateboarding
The new issue of Concrete Skateboarding has appearances from locals Geoff Strelow and Dustin Henry. Your local skate shop probably has a copy that you can grab for free.
Skateboarding Survey
In preparing to meet with the City of Calgary, we’ve put together a quick survey to find out more about Calgary skateboarders. Click here or the image below to fill it out. Only one survey per IP address is permitted but feel free to send this to your friends who skate. Thanks!
