FIGJAM Hits Montreal- AMGettingPaid


On the weekend of July 18-21st, FIGJAM skaters Justin Fabus, Keenan Beauchamp travelled to Montreal for this year’s AMGettingPaid with videographer Anthony Perre and Director of Marketing Justin Hanna. The trip was an eventful one to say the least, yes a lot of skateboarding got done, but as you can probably tell, you a get a bunch of guys in a city like Montreal, and you know fun times where ahead. Certain things where figured out during this trip, that you probably did not know about the FIGJAM crew.


Number 1: Justin Hanna speaks very good French- no matter what people say
Number 2: Justin Fabus does a terrible impersonation of a French Canadian. Don’t stand in front of him cause the spit that flies from his mouth is large enough to fill lake Ontario.
Number 3: Always always bring a shaver with you on a trip, just ask Keenan whose beard started looking so raggedy, people miss took him for a Vancouver Homeless man.
Number 4: Videographer Anthony Perre may not speak any French, but his moves with the French ladies, mostly the ones at Boston Pizza, are as we should say..parfait
Number 5: Don’t ever leave your phone number on the back of a receipt for a girl- it dosen’t work! Mostly when you’re out of town
Number 6: Justin Fabus is coming out with his own line of hot dogs... The Mayo Dog (aka the sperm dog) as seen below. This is not a FIGJAM product.
Number 7: Skateboarding in Montreal- bring a cheque book. The crew did some skating at the park in front of the Palais De Congres. Well it cost us, $120 fine and a confiscated skateboard. Thank god the ticket was a for a minor, cause if you are over 18 and skateboarding in Montreal the ticket is a wooping $620..Fuck Shit BALLS, that sucks. PS has the city of culture turned its back on Youth Culture?
Number 8: Nightlife in Montreal, still friggin rocks, and nothing beats it.
Number 9: If you ever have a chance to skate South Parc, take it!
Number 10: Montreal city police you haven’t seen the last of us!
