Philou works in his brothers bike shop in summer and on the mountain during the winter. He has been building crazy mountain bike trails up behind the shop and has become one hell of a biker. He also built some ice booters in winter and was the first to backflip a kicker on hockey skates. One hell of a guy that Mr Poirier

He always was one of my favorite pros, along with Boyd Easley. I remember when he first did the back to back 9s in the pipe.

The margin for error on that... Throwing one off something on Skiblades was sketchy, ice skates... Mon tabarnak!

Thats some awesome skating! about Vinnie, I heard a while back that he started his own business. I believe it was a landscaping company.

Yeah he's landscaping in St Sauveur. He's still pretty good on the skis himself, still does those classic 540 mutes.
