Next up in our release of sections from Vagabond Squad is Duke Thomson-Kurz.
Some words from filmmaker, Justin Schwanke: “Rumour has it, Duke once lived in a cave in Tofino. It was here—through the process of self-actualization—that he decided to dedicate his life to feeble grinds and x-up rides. This DVD part serves as documentation for Duke’s spiritual and philosophical journey from caveman to street connoisseur.”
"Vagabond Squad" is a full-length video from Canada’s Weird & Revered crew. Filmed from 2016 to 2019, the project is community rooted with a strong focus on the Edmonton BMX scene. Although a majority of the clips are from the crew’s home city, the footage spans 9 countries, 8 American states, and 4 Canadian provinces and territories.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
