The day we checked out of & left Woodward West there was a Free Flow Tour stop being held there. Local rider Sebastian Smith who rides for Colony through Sidewall Distribution’s Crux Division program scored himself a well deserved 1st place. We had the pleasure to hang & ride with Sebastian whilst there & I can easily see why he won, he has the place on lock down. Well done mate !!

It’s amazing the things you will talk about when you are stuck in traffic for what seems like forever but there was light at the end of the tunnel, literally! As we got to experience the famous Baldy full pipe which was amazing, the adventure getting there and having to find a new plank to be able to get over to ride it was probably more fun then riding it itself. As you can tell from this photo good times were had.
Over on Ridebmx.com Cooper has a detailed bike check along with some questions about his setup. check it out!

Brock is with out a doubt a ledge destroyer, here is a web video for his clothing hookup Dishonour. As you would expect from Brock there are some solid moves in this, it’s hard to tell what side is his natural grind side.

Zac just recently took a trip to Melbourne, here is a bit of an update from it all…
“So the Blazeguard prem was on the weekend in Melbs. aswell as my 25th birthday so Amber and I venture down and stayed with Thomas and Elle. It was a cracker of a weekend with the Blazeguard prem held at Revolver it was a fair turn out and as much as it was a short video, the whole production was amazing! The rest of the night was filled with being intoxicated.
I Spent most of Saturday hung over but managed to hit a ghetto rail across the road from Fordyces, two kids were just roaming by and wanted to jump in on the photo.
The old gang from Deniliquin treated me to a great night around North Melbourne for my birthday, it was a great weekend all in all.. I was so happy to get out of Canberra to be honest! In other news though. Backbone has started filming for their first full length DVD… Look out for that in about a years time, gunna be epic. Anyways speak to ya later.”

Anton McGuirk is back on the bike now after his back injury earlier this year. He has popped on over to Woodward East for a month to get back into the swing of things. He would’ve come here to Woodward West with us but at the time he was still not sure when he would be back on the bike at the time we booked this trip. Expect some updates here from Anton over the month ahead.

We had a pretty whirlwind adventure to Woodward with 2 of the RV tyres blowing out leaving Ryan to sleep in it over night until he could get it fixed whilst the rest of us squeezed together in the 2 other cars and got settled in at Woodward. Ryan got all sorted this morning and had a real solid ride with us this afternoon evening.
Everyone at Woodward has been real cool and I am looking forward to the days ahead.
Another day another good park to ride. We are off to Woodward today for 6 days which should be a fun time! If anyone is heading out there make sure you come up and hang out.
