Maxime Cassagne Photography
I first noticed Maxime’s phorography after this years Fise contest. There was a particular shot of Viki Gomez mid steam kickflip to halfpacker that was one of the best action shots i’ve seen. Maxime got in touch with some news of some new shots he took with Thomas Noyer at the beach, hit the link to check out Maxime’s work.

Bakers Dozen: Matthias Dandois
After last weeks teaser a lot of people have been waiting to see Matthias’ Bakers Dozen part. As you would expect, Matthias kills it on the front wheel tech, standouts for me: half-cab hang up to nose wheelie, feeble to nose manual 3 out and seeing him grind a rail! Head over to the insidethebakery website to watch this one!
