Meanwhile in Canada

by Sklar
Mar 10th 2014 - 34 comments

"The plan for this project was simple: to make it from coast to coast by RV and explore Canada, hitting as many rails/features along the way as we can. Most skiing in our country happens on either coast, so we thought we could show some of what Canada has to offer in terms of street skiing in a single trip, using all things Canadian – from the crew, to the places we visited, to the entire soundtrack. We called it Meanwhile in Canada because while the primary focus is on the Olympics this winter, we were still out doing our thing and having an awesome time along the way."

A trust funder, a wangsta, and a joke. One could call David Lesh all of these things, correct or not. About the only thing you can't call David Lesh is stupid. He is a marketing wiz looking to sell outerwear.
