Stephan Hearn is one of my favourite riders. This guy is pure beast! If you watched the Vancouver jam edit yesterday, you will have noticed the speed and buttery Stephan connected the backwards backpacker xft hitch, xft halfhiker to halfpacker line, classic line, that no one does! Stephan recently got on S&M Flow, Chad is building up an army. And this guy deserves to be in the army! Chck out his ride, dialled! Aooosssttttt!!!

Vancouver Jam 2012
VANCOUVER JAM 2012 from Everyday Paradise on Vimeo.
The 2012 Western Canada Flatland Jam went down in the beautiful city of Vancouver and it did not disappoint. An incredibly diverse (and large) group of riders made it out to the jam spot and rode hard all day. We had a hard time choosing between riding and filming and unfortunately didn’t do enough of either. That said, we are stoked to have gotten a few choice links of film and hope you enjoy this short recap of the jam. Start making plans now to get to Vancouver for next year’s jam!
