Liam Zingbergs had a recent Oneclip from the Focalpoint 365 project…

Thanks to Sam Routledge for sending over this photo of Chris he shot at the recent flood jam at Beenleigh park, you can see more of his shots here.

If you check out the new DIG you will see this advert featuring Tom doing a hang five grind or whatever he calls it, this grind still makes no sense to me!

A solid one clip from Brock whilst on a trip a couple weeks ago…

We rode something special yesterday, thanks to all the locals who hooked us up with the location.

Today was another super fun day riding around town with a bunch of locals, this place is pretty awesome, good people, good weather and good spots.

Nice sequence of Tom Stretton at Corindi Beach on the recent Brisbane to Canberra trip. Thanks to Copp’in it Sweet for the shot.

It was crazy hot yesterday in Perth, some of the local crew hooked us up with some fun spots which we had a ball at. We also hit a park which had the biggest spine I have ever seen in my life.

Myself, Marnold, Tom and Mick arrived in Perth yesterday and we went down to the local BMX store, Royal BMX and hung out for a few hours. None of us have been over here before and it was definately a treat to hang out with Ben and everyone down at the store. Thanks to everyone who came down, it’s awesome to see another legit BMX store in this country.

Zac and myself had recent One Clips in the Focalpoint 365 clips project…

We had a great time hanging out and riding the ramps at Helensvale BMX. Thanks to everyone who came out and the guys at Vale, much appreciated! Below we have Tom Stretton with an alleyoop downside whip and also a local shredder, Keahnu Doyle, who won the bunnyhop comp with a hop of 37 inches. He scored himself a pair of forks for his efforts.

We have a new tee out, called Since. It’s a basic logo tee printed on the usual slightly longer but not wider blanks that we use. I think it came up pretty good! We will have these with us all along the trip the next couple of weeks. Hit us up at the various in-stores for your chance to buy one while they last.

A recent clip of Marnold riding city park in Melbourne…

We just got to Brisbane, it was a long drive! We had rain most the time but we did get a chance to hit up a couple of spots which was fun, just like this Swansea park in NSW that was just finished and super super fun!

So myself, Mick Bayzand and Liam Zingbergs are in Sydney at the moment trying to film some clips, the weather isn’t on our side but Liam did manage to get some solids at this spot before the rain hit us…

Chris was down in Victoria for the Redbull Dirtpipe, here is a little write up about his trip. Thanks to Mitchell Morison for the photo…

Dirtpipe 2011 was unfortunately rain out all weekend and the actual competition was called off. Due too everyone having set flights home, a couple of riders had to cut it short, so Redbull put on a jam to keep everyone psyched. The pipe was rediculous and soo much better and more built up than last year, was soo pumped to leave this year in my own car and not a ambulance! All round good trip and a perfect way to spend a birthday!

Peta Shepherd and Tim Wood are apart of the coaching clinics going on at the GC Compound on the Gold Coast in Brisbane, check their site for more info on how to get help from some experianced riders.

Other Peta news is that she came 4th in Intermediate  at a recent comp held at the GC, The photo below is from a session Peta had down there not too long ago.

Shane has been super busy of late, I will let him tell the story though…

It’s been a crazy past few months for sure. End of last year was hectic with trips to Japan, UK and Malaysia. In between I also headed to Melbourne for demos and finished up in December by going to China for a week to do more demos for their national TV station, CCTV. I got the invite for the 2 Guinness World Records that I got earlier in the year – pretty stoked on that and I heard that it was on Channel 7 in December as well but I missed seeing it, bummer!!

After getting back from China I hung around Brisbane a few days sorting a few things out with Newcircle as we were due to get the new complete Apprentice flatland bikes in (dope!). Then I hopped in my car and drove 2,520kms over the next 2 days to get back to Adelaide in time for Christmas – VW all the way yo! Bit of an epic trip dodging floods, messed up roads and Kangaroos… gotta love Australia!

Adelaide was sweet… hung out mostly, gotta bunch of riding in and kept it low-key. Chillin.

Because of all the floods I decided to come back a little early and made the 2,500km return trip to Brisbane… just in time to get back to the gnarliest floods that nearly swept the whole city away! As crazy as it was, good to hear that most people got through it ok, but a lot of people had a super tough time with it so I hope they pull through…

So now I’m looking forward to February as we have the first round of the Newcircle DownUnderground Flatland Series happening in Bridport in Tasmania over the 19th/20th – check it out if you’re down that way!

Brock Olive has been out and about filming for various things. Smooth smith to nose to bars sequence below. Thanks to Copp’in it Sweet for the shots.

Today Peta Shepherd turns 24 , hope you have a great day Peta…

This is our current advert in Ride US featuring Zac Miner with a low roof clearance rail hop.

There is a pretty solid review about Simon O’Brien‘s DVD over on Global-Flat, well worth the read. You can also check out the promo for it here.

Marnold had a recent One Clip on Focalpoint.

Our USA flow rider Broc Raiford sent us over a few photos from a mission he has been doing, filming for a Monday edit for the guys over at RideUS. Incase you missed it, Broc recently had an advert in RideUS also, check it here.

Here is our current advert featured in DIG. Marnold doing a tight thread the needle up rail to bars.

A couple of us headed down to Geelong the other day for something different, besides it being crazy windy it was a fun day. Zac getting his tuck on whilst the kids come for him!

Liam really put in work for this edit, some real creative and amazing moves in this. Props bro. Filmed and Edited by Tim Towie and Doug Underhill.

Ryan has a cool interview over on DIG where he talks about a variety of topics including making the move to Colony being his frame sponsor now along with filming and recovering from double shoulder surgery. Check it out here.

The other day Zac Miner made the mission out to my side of town and before we hit the streets he was blasting around Ringwood bowl.

Random shot of Tom Stretton at what has now become quite a well know spot. Check the new 2020 for the Afray advert which Tom also features in.
