"In 2015, longtime friend and pro BMX rider Pascal Lafontaine had a right leg amputation. Chained by a Sarcoma cancer diagnosis, the doctor then gave him a few months to live. Three years later after learning how to walk, Pascal proceeds to do something incredible : he relearns to ride BMX with a prosthesis and, in the two following years, pushes street riding to its limits, in between chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments. Following his video part, he was named “ Rider of the year 2019 ” by DIG BMX magazine. This book contains the photos captured during the filming of his video on more than 25 street sessions and the story of his journey. His odyssey is a testimony of passion and resilience." - Pierre Gauthier

Working with the University of Montreal, Pascal’s parents have created 'Le Fond Pascal T Lafontaine' which will take donations to finance research for a cure for Sarcoma Cancer. Touched by his story, the action sport community put together resources to celebrate Pascal’s life. A memorial was painted by Montreal artists, HEST1 & STARE, the project was directed by the Embassy MTL team with the support of Vans Canada, le Sino store and, le Taz Skatepark where this great cultural piece will inspire generations to come.
