#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.
Advert: Chris Courtenay
The latest 2020 dropped a couple weeks back, this is the advert we rocked up front for the issue. Chris Courtenay was in his element at Woodgate park in north Quensland which you can also see and read more about in the issue.

Use your Pegs Mixtape
Attlia Godi from Hungary sent through this mixtape he put together recently of crew during the years of 2008-2010. I love video’s like this because it gives you a good insight into other scene’s from across the world. Some pretty rough crashes in the intro aswell.
Michal Mycel video
Mycek always comes through with some great footage in his web video’s and this one is no exception. Filmed by Filip “Piastun” Malina. Aditional by Bartek Checinski , Mateusz “Usz” Kanownik , Mike Miller & Mack Back. Put together by Mycek himself. Poland has some spots!
Alex Hiam at VansUSopen
From all reports Alex rode really well at the Vans US Open. Here are a few photos I grabbed from his Instagram that @brandonmeans shot.
Mick @ Prahran
Mick has some real solid footage in this mix with a bunch of the team guys from Strictly Bmx which is just located around the corner from this park, really enjoyed this.
2014 completes catalogue (1st drop)
We just loaded up this flipbook showing all the specs for the new 2014 complete bikes that landed in Australia a couple weeks ago. We also got a few riding shots from some of the team guys in there to finish it all off.
There is another shipment of these 2014 bikes arriving in Australia next week, so check with your favourite Colony dealer now. The rest of the world will have these bikes arrive around late September / early October depending where you are on the planet. The USA will have them in late September.
Alex Hiam update
Alex has been a busy man over in the USA. He just shot through this update…
Hey Guys !!!
Just got back from “Tabes for the Babes” Tour to Tuscon, Arizona With a bunch of rad dudes. We broke down on the first night of the tour because the brakes failed, So we had to stay in a small town can san tee for two nights until the brakes were fixed on the RV… We were super lucky to find a nice enough mechanics to lend us a car for those two days for us to get around town.. After the brakes were fixed we were back on the road and made it safely to Arizona..
It was over 40+ Degree heat in Tucson and we were riding concrete parks all day everyday, It was exsaugthing but so fun.. Ian took us to shoot all his guns one day as-well which was so much fun !!!
The last day I rode Recon Tour At premise park, And ended up Placing 2nd in Open.. The comp was soo crazy there were over 30 riders in Open And everyone was riding so good !!! Finals was getting so intense and every one was throwing down bangers…
I Had the best time ever !!! Massive thanks to Ryan Guettler for taking all of us on this tour and a massive thanks to Premise Park and Ian !!!!
Also I shot a bunch of photos with the photographer from RIDEbmx and he is doing a 8 page story about the trip and the web video will be out soon!! I also just got invited to ride the Vans US open HB invitational comp on the 27th of this month!! Sooo happy and stoked.
Bobbie Altiser – Ten Clips
So out of nowhere I got an email from Bobbie telling me he had filmed a ten clips. The next day I have a file ready for download and I just knew there would be some treats in it. Bobbie didn’t disappoint and continues his ever progressing and creative riding. Thanks to Dylan Crane for filming this.

Coppin’ it Sweet DVD trailer
So pretty much as soon as Stu finished the 2011 Colony DVD he put everything he had into filming the Coppin’ it Sweet DVD which is now very close to being finished. Here is the trailer for the DVD which definitely has a good vibe to it and both Clint and Marnold have full sections so keep an eye out for it.
Video Re-up
Over the past few months some solid video’s have dropped from some of the crew with more to follow, here are a couple to start your day off right.
FTLT coming to an end
Well for me this trip has been a solid 4 weeks of filming and driving and although the past week has been from home it has still felt like a trip. In the very early hours of tomorrow morning both Brandon and Jourdan will be heading back home overseas and Tom headed back to Brisbane this evening. It’s been a blast and we got some really solid footage. Here are a couple photos from just before of the guys packing up and chilling watching all the footage from the past weeks.
Ten clips throwback – Millar
Today is a year to the day that this ten clips was filmed with boss man Millar, how time flies when you’re having fun. A new one is being filmed today as well, so keep an eye out for that. #frontbrakes
Marnold video
Marnold is a boss and went in hard for this web video. Enjoy the video then check out his signature Talon bars here.
Shane Badman update
Shane sent through an update on what’s been happening with him, always something cool going on…
Hey peeps! I’m over in Perth right now for a few days before I head out to Europe and Hungary where I’ll be living for the next few months. Bike packed and everything is sorted, can’t wait to get over there! Before I left I did a small piece for a magazine that goes around regional Victoria called “The Milk Mag” in the current issue, 19. Pretty stoked on it and the article talks about interesting jobs so being in BMX is definitely something worth a read that everyone needs to know about! You can pick it up in most newsagents I’m told so check it out. Don’t forget to hit me up on Instagram @shanebadman
Zac clips
Zac Miner has a few really good clips in this mixed section from JT’s Blazeguard DVD that came out a little while ago now.
FTLT – Day 15
We spent the day filming and riding at Woden park in Canberra, we planned to only be there for a warm up before hitting some spots but one clip led to another and before we knew it, it was freezing cold and the sun was going down. Everyone seemed to have fun though and we got some solid clips which I am stoked on!
FTLT – Day 14
We spent the good part of the day hanging out at Backbone BMX riding the flat rails and checking out the shop. As always Backbone hosted a great day. We then hit up a session at the iconic Erindale Banks where I snapped this shot of Zac just as the cold was really setting in.
