Enough said, head over to the shop for more info and stay tuned for more photos and pro boards in stock.
AKWD Axe/Sword
For those who dont know, AKWD is the illest, multicultural group of snowskaters there is. They thrive off of wet shoes, walking forever, and using axes to destroy enemies and ice. It is a true snowskate alliance, a fellowship.
I was introduced to the AKWD homies two winters ago when Josh came down to Barrie for a snowskate adventure. Last year I came to Montreal to skate with Josh and Roby. It was the best, most fun time I've ever had snowskating. These guys are the hardest of hardcore, battling the super freeze that is Montreal winters. Waking up early, snowskating all day and all night. That's what this movies all about. FUN. So go out and have some.

AKWD Axe/Sword Teaser
AKWD aka A World Known Domination is proud to present you the teaser of thier last project; Axe/Sword.
Axe/Sword is a journey to the center or the snowskate world, also known as fun, friendship and happiness.
Featuring musical classics such as Ninja High School and french rap superstar Maybe Watson, this year's edit is simply outstanding; the landing to clip ratio is higher than ever, thanks to the GTA punks; Braden Ioi and Evan Ciniello who joined the AKWD support staff with stylish and technical maneuvers.
The OG; Dumb, Josh and Rabot (cause yeah, Dav was just to busy to throw down some tre's) skill level will cause serious damage to your eyes, make sure you wear all the necessary equipment before viewing this piece.
Also, big news this year; Toronto-based rider/art master Jamie Cybulski is now part of the official line-up, we simply couldn't get over how amazing and laid back the dude is so we decided to hook him up; i'm pretty sure his new part will blow your mind.
To be honest, I didn't go too artsy with the edit this year, simply went for the: let's have a feel-good, chill edit this year, I hope you guys will be pleased.
See you november 1st! :)
