Ethic DTC Welcomes JD

If you didn't hear, Jean-Yves Randriambelson is now on Ethic (and still on UrbanArtt).  Being on two high profile factory teams is pretty gnarly, big ups to him.  Also big ups for this trick..either part of that trick is hard enough, putting them together?  Damn son.

Dissidence Curb Edit ft JD and Balth

JD and Balthazar keep everyone's tech game in check with their latest curb/box edit. These two guys in one video, you know it's gonna be good. Last clip was really sick. Check it out below.

Dissidence in Denmark

Some of you might not know, but JD has been living in Denmark for quite some time now. So Balthazar and Kevin Demay recently made the trip to hang out with the homies in Denmark, and they got some sick footage. Kevin's line was way too stylish. Definitely check this out.

Dissidence Distribution USA Philly/NYC Trip

Damn.  This video is incredible.  Matt McKeen, Logan Fuller, and Hep Greg are starting up a US branch for Dissidence, and original Dissidence guys JD and Balth came with Roots Boy to the states to film this video.  Amazing riding from everyone, from Logan's tricks on the cut Philly rail, JD's huge hops, Greg's endless steeze, Balth's solid tech, and watch out for McKeen's switch tricks...and the ender, Williamsburg gap to rail?  Even without a trick out is insane.  Yara Haynes and David Martinez came through with some guest clips too.  If you haven't started watching the video yet, you can start now.

JD Throwaway 2011

Jandiv's throwaway is good enough to be anyone's banger footage.  This selection of clips spans across France, Switzerland, and the US.  JD's best footage was used in his Addict So What part, be sure to check that one out.  Even a couple years later, 360 whip to smith (not from feeble) is still an insane trick.

JD in Denmark

JD is spending some time in Denmark, which means he is going to be shredding with various legit street riders, most from the HooTigh crew. What does that mean? We're going to be seeing some sick footage dropping in the future.

Throwback Thursday: French ID Team Video 2008

When this video dropped back in 2008, French ID was THE Team. Future Addict riders like Jandiv Randriambelson, Maxime Legrand, Matt McKeen, Johann Moreau, and Alex Peasley all started out first with French ID. Which made this Team one of the most talent stacked teams of that time. When this edit came out, people quickly realized that. Some riders like Matt McKeen had already established themselves at some of the best in the sport. But for some of the other guys, we were only starting to see the first hints that they were bound to progress into ridiculous riders. Take a look back at some of the sports best today with this weeks Throwback Thursday.


And who could forget the two songs used in this edit? Classic.

JD Egp18 Day Edit

Jordan posted Max Peters edit at Egp18, so I figured I'd toss up JD's as well. Normally putting a tall ass dude on a scooter, can look a bit off at times. But for JD he happens to be one of the tallest, and still one of the cleanest. His tech game is pretty untouched by most of todays riders, and he is only getting better. Really makes you wonder what his "So What" section is going to contain.

Jean-Yves "JD" Randriambelson Addict Scooter Check YA KNOW!

It's no secret anymore that Addict has some of the top street riders in the world on its Team.

JD took the time to film this scooter check while he was at the Proto Shop. He explains a lot about his signature deck which you'll see in the video. At the end we're treated to some sick riding from one of Addict's best.
