Yup, an amazing one at that.  Second video I ever bought, and so glad I did.  Half the sections don't even work on that tape anymore because I've watched them so much.  Cory Strat's and Jeff's parts were amazing.  Not to forget Travis Collier's section, although it seemed like he had barely been riding by that point, and Ottawa's own Steve Fong's!

It's a classic for me.  Jeff Desroche kills it, Cory Strat has some KILLER lines in there, Travis Collier is like 16 or 17 and doing some cool stuff in it.  Steve Fong does some interesting stuff, and Simon O'Brien does his usual craziness on the most busted ass bike I have ever seen.

Edit:  I did not realize Prasheel had talked about the video before I posted this, haha.

I do remember riding at hamjams when i was like 14ish or so, haha good times.  I also remember one time Prasheel used me as an example of a rider that was just starting and was progressing well because I learned all the basics...Which is ironics because I can't hang 5.
