Peta Shepherd update

From Peta‘s Instagram I knew she was up to something…

I haven’t been getting out on the bike as much as I’d like, because right now I’m training for a triathlon at the end of September. But managed to get a rad ride in at Millar’s backyard on the weekend. Best mini ramp ever by the way. Thanks to Jesse for the photos.

Canadian Concrete

We got behind this years Canadian Concrete and from all reports it was a dope series with a great turnout of riders and supporters. Looking forward to more!

Marnold update

I met up with Marnold yesterday afternoon (as you would know if you are following Colony on Insta) at a local spot we’ve been building at over the past year or so and grabbed a few photos while we were at it. Spring is here so the goodtimes are rolling.

Tom Stretton – Colony DVD

One of my personal favourite sections from the 2011 Colony DVD. I’m sure many out there have the same opinion, enjoy.

Guettler has been busy…

Ryan Guettler shot through an update on what he has been up too of late…

I’ve been very busy the last 2 months and have a huge month ahead of me. Over August I’ve done the Vans HB bowl comp, Colony Woodward week, Mongoose Woodward east comp and now just finished the Vans ECSC comp. I’ve been progressing and getting better results as the events have been going on. The Mongoose comp was really cool & we got good results in dirt with our team ending up getting 2nd place.

Then this past weekend I went to Norfolk VB to compete in the Vans ECSC comp and came home with 3rd place. Really happy how the comp went and against that field of riders I can’t complain.
Now I have a week off so I’ll be working on new tricks and filming a lot for upcoming videos. Then of to Mexico City for a big comp Sept 6th.

Tom Stretton update

Tom just shot through an update from the latest happenings…

“I went on a trip up down through Sydney, Canberra and Melbourne not long ago and it was unbelievable. Met the most amazing people and had the best time riding with the crew. Thanks so much to everyone we met and as always thanks to Cooper for constantly putting his neck out for us.

For the last month or so I have been staying in Brisbane city solo and just trying to ride as much as I can and definitely partying haha. Pretty much each weekend my best mate Shane Batchler has been staying with me and we have been running a muck haha. For those of you who don’t know who Shane is, he is pretty much the godfather of the tailwhip and all things liquor based. Learn yo shit hahah.

I’m currently working on an edit and a few other things which I hope everyone will enjoy. I don’t get the chance to film much so we will see what happens. Keep an eye out.

Until next time, peace!

Oh and follow me on instagram hahaaaaa @tom_stretton it’s just basically photos of my dog, the sun or stupid situations I get myself into.”

Brandon Van Dulken checks in

It seems Brandon has really got the travel bug as all this year he has been trekking all over the country and world. Here is the latest on his most recent trip.

“Hope all is well guys, I just got back from an awesome little roady in the states for a bmx/skate festival. Back home now and all healed up, time to clock some clips! Real psyched on what’s going on right now.”

Thanks so much to Shawn Duffied for the photo. Do yourself a favour and follow both Brandon (@brandonvandulken) and Shawn on Instagram.

2014 Colony Premise video

With the 2014 Premise complete being out for a couple of weeks here in Australia and it landing across the globe in the coming weeks we thought it was a good time to drop this video showcasing everything about the bikes along with riding footage of Alex Hiam, Marnold, Chris Courtenay, Jourdan Barba, Brandon Van Dulken, Peta Shepherd, Jack Kelly, Paddy Gross, Tom Stretton and Mick Bayzand killing it! You can get more info about the Premise here.

Area 43 mission

We were fortunate enough to spend the afternoon at the Area 43 backyard setup which was seriously amazing! The locals are really down to earth and so welcoming. We also hit up the Mission Valley park which was also quite the amazing park and well worth the drive for anyone in California.

Cooper in LA

Cooper jetted over to LA two weeks ago to film with some of the guys and to shoot the Woodward Week. He has been spending the past couple of days riding with the LAX guys trying to finish off his next Colony video which from what he tells me, he has almost enough footage for.

Bruno Iphone video

This might be filmed with an Iphone but Bruno still comes through with solid clips. Check it out.

Colony Raw

We’ve been uploading a few raw clips over on our Youtube channel lately, made up of footage that had never seen the light of day so we figured it would be good to get them out. Here we have some Chris Courtenay clips from 2011 that we filmed for a sprocket promo that never ended up happening, along with some left over jourdan Barba clips from last year at Woodward West.

More from Woodward West

Another day, another long day of riding with the crew, here are a few shots from out in the heat.

#bensbackyard

Today we hit up a session at Ben Snowden’s backyard spot which was a blast, a chilled session that turned into a heated one for some. Thanks to Ben and the other locals who were welcoming. Here Ryan whips the street spine mid run and clipping up.
