Brock recently went on a trip with his shop sponsor LUX. He shot through this update about the trip…

“I just got back from the LUX trip last Thursday and it was amazing, one of the funniest trips I’ve Ever been on.

We drove up to Gladstone and rode parks along the way and all the way back to Brissy. We’re gonna have the edit as a little premiere at the LUX 2nd birthday party in 2 weeks so should be a good night.”

T-Strett is on fire !! This one we filmed when in LA the other week & was a lot of fun. You gotta try this trick & if you are not laughing & smiling whilst doing it then something is wrong… it’s the funniest trick ever. Get to it !!

Thanks to the guys at Ride BMX & for the words below…

While kicking it with the Colony team a few weeks back, I overheard Peta Shepherd say to teammate Tom Stretton, “You should do a wheelbarrow on the banks,” while riding the famous White Banks in Los Angeles. I looked over, asked what a wheelbarrow was, and Tom immediately hopped on his bike, rode up to the banks, did some sort of running nosewheelie/whiplash on the banks and rode away. Soon after, we were all on our bikes trying to do it and simply put, having an absolute blast doing a simple and fun trick on flat ground and on the banks. After a bit of coercion, Tom was convinced to say a bit about the trick, and that leads to this week’s How To. Sure, this is a pretty easy trick to get done but as Tom proves, there’s plenty of ways to do it and I’m positive that someone will take this thing to a really creative and high level at some point. Until then, see Tom’s tips (in both normal English and the Aussie slang version) and get out and have some fun – Ride BMX.

Yo yo !!

Jack Birtles really did well with this edit of Tom. Such a good vibe throughout and it just makes you want to go ride your bike, enjoy!

Anton McGuirk has been riding heaps at Woodward East the last few weeks & will have a ten clips edit come out really soon. Watch this space…

Yo yo !!

Bobbie really put in work for this and I am stoked how it came out. Filmed at the MLK park in Long Beach CA. We lost a fisheye in the process but it was bound to happen one of these days.

Available now to make all yours in Little Black Bike’s brand new online store, so get to it pronto !!

Check out Ryan Guettler riding the city trails in Adelaide with Valvo last December in their joint ten clips below.

Zac scored the advert in the UK version of new Albion magazine showing off his signature frame. Fast and hard gap to wall ride from our trip to Adelaide a little while back for the Colony X Vans shoe. If you watch the video below you will see the clip of this photo. If you are in Australia, Strictly BMX have copies of The Albion with the proceeds going to The Leukaemia Foundation which is pretty awesome.

Ryan has a few good clips in the early stages of this web video from the jam that went down at Stephen Murray’s on the weekend. Looks like a real good vibe going down.

Micky just sent through an update from OS…

“As most of you would know I am in Canada again for the summer. I nearly didn’t make it here as I had some passport issues, ticket issues and every other problem you can think of. But I am here now and it has been amazing so far. I have just spent the first week hanging out with my girl and catching up with all the homies over here. Such a good vibe and everyone’s so nice. The weathers just starting to get real good aswell, summer is definitely starting and I just put my bike together thanks to Ride On shop here in Canada, so expect a lot of riding photos and lots of crazy adventures. you no how I do. till then peace out and keep checking the site.”

The Shed Skatepark down in Cranbourne, Melbourne are having a series of comps leading up to a grand final in April next year with some great prizes up for grabs. More importantly though, good times on your bike to be had. I would expect that you will see our newest recruit, Dean Anderson there shredding. You may even be blessed with the Pete Radivo show. Pete rules. Check the flyer below for details.

Yo yo !!

Alex through some raw random clips out there… check it.

Yo yo !!

Marnold features heavily in this mix edit from one of his local parks.

As you will see in this video, Ryan took a few harsh crashes whilst filming this power hour for Vital but he got it done and did well. Ryan puts in alot or work down at Sheep Hills these days so it was fitting to shoot it there. Thanks again to Ryan Galvan for banging this out.

Power Hour: Ryan Guettler at Sheep Hills – More BMX Videos

Cooper did a good how-to video with Ride on how to do predator grinds on flat rails, be sure to watch this to help possibly learn a new trick.

Yo yo !!

Here is a cool video with Ryan explaining the origins of his Dagger Forks & Bars along with some insight into Dagger the name sake. You can check out his Dagger forks & Dagger bars in our products section.

On a funny story to go with Dagger & myself… One year I stayed at Ryan’s place back in Greenville & I stayed up stairs in the poker room on a make shift bed. Somehow, while we went away for the weekend, Dagger decided to climb up all the steps to the top of the house & leave me 6 little brown Dagger nuggets on my bed !! The little bastard !! Guess that was his way of saying thanks for sneaking him extra food when no one was looking. Miss you Dagger – R.I.P.

Yo yo !!

This is awesome. Ave BMX who hold down & do a great job distributing our products in Poland took their team on a road trip & this is the end result. Look out for clips from our own Michal Mycek in the mix. That cut he sustained looked harsh but still came back for me afterwards. Grab a coffee, sit back & enjoy.

Jourdan Barba has a new video from a session at Skate City in Las Vegas. He throws down some solid moves as he always does, check it out. Thanks to Ryan Galvan for putting it together.

Yo yo !!

…Dean Anderson, this kid has been killing it for a while now down in Victoria. If you’ve ever been to The Shed or watched the web video below you know Dean is good on his bike but he is also a down to earth good kid so we are stoked to have him apart of the team repping Colony for us down south. Be on the look out for more from Dean soon but for now check his new setup and the web video he dropped a few months back.

I stayed behind in California for a few extra days to film with Jourdan and Ryan. Today was a productive day even without my fisheye after breaking it 3 days ago.

Anton McGuirk is over at Woodward East for a month & he sent in this quick bike check.
