If you’ve been coming to this website for some time, then perhaps you’ll recall a series called Filmlyfe. We recently brought it back to life, with renewed vigour. It’s a glimpse into the lives of our favourite filmers, via the medium they best communicate through: Video clips.

Featuring in today’s Stab x Electric episode we have on display a collection of high fidelity snippets from Western Australian vid guy Rick Rifici. Within you’ll be greeted with the gurgling faces of the area’s murderous slabs, some ridden, some understandably not. There’s also a number of rides featuring Ry Craike, Kerby Brown and Taj Burrow sprinkled in between to add a little high performance flavour to your experience.
