Looks like Cooper & Flagz have been busy on an awesome new project. You can read all about it here. Check the promo below which looks amazing. Can’t wait to see what this has to offer as I know Cooper & Flagz will only give it their absolute best.
I gotta say I am so stoked on how the BMX scene in Australia is coming of age the last few years. Such a good crew of riders who are doing so many good things. I am proud to be a part of BMX in Australia.

Zac Miner pic & DVD premiere
Yo, here is a random pic that Cooper Brownlee from Focalpoint sent me of Zac at the Halloween jam in Sydney on the weekend. Thanks Coops !! Word on the street is that Zac has some big news popping soon… keep an eye out in the media over the next few weeks is all I am going to say.
Zac has a section in an upcoming new DVD from Troy Charlesworth, called Epic Invasion. The premiere is on Friday the 14th November in Canberra at Zac’s house. If you don’t know where Zac lives then it seems you’re not invited, haha. Gotta be in the know on this one.

Bruno Faucon random pic
Spotted this random riding pic of our French team rider, Bruno Faucon up on our French distros site, Unleaded. That park looks amazing & as always Bruno comes through with the goods with his riding. Bruno has been on an Unleaded team trip throughout France the last few days.

Mick Bayzand footage
Mick Bayzand sent me an email yesterday & let me know he scored a bunch of clips in a Macneil/Tenpack web edit. It’s from a trip he did in Toronto earlier this year with the Macneil guys, including his good mate, Kym Grosser. Mick clocked some serious clips as usual which is good to see. Look out for Mick on the white bike with the gold parts. He always blows my mind with his rail skills, so bloody good.
Mick will also be riding the first sample version of his signature frame, called the Teddy, in the coming weeks. Expect more on frame that soon enough. Before you email us, it wont be available for 12 months.
Hell Stallion forks available now

Jonny Devine pics
Jonny sent me a couple recent pics of him riding an indoor park in the UK. The weather over there is starting to get bad so riding outdoors is not much of an option. Jonny has also just put together a new bike recently & we will have pics up here soon. Looks like the kid in the corner is pretty stoked to see Jonny do a taybo!

Core Series but not really
Today I went to the Core Series final at Kuraby skatepark in Brisbane & it turned out to be a really good day. Alex Hiam ended up getting 2nd overall for the year in Pro & pocketed $250 towards the ‘Woodward’ fund. Stoked. I didn’t get around to taking any pics or getting any footage but I did capture this classic moment of a rider we all affectionately call, Snappa. He rules & this was definately the highlight while the skate finals were going. Pure BMX at it’s best. Enjoy.

Tangerine dropping now
Our limited edition Tangerine colourway is dropping this week into Australia & is already available in the USA. It will hit other countries in the weeks ahead for those outside of these two countries. Get it while it lasts as limited means limited when it comes to our colourways.

Alex’s bike makeover… again
Alex has once again had a makeover on his bike & I am sure it won’t be the last. He changes his bike colour like most of us change our underwear. It’s all good though, whatever keeps him happy. Be sure to check Alex riding his new ride at the Core Series final at Kuraby this Sunday. Should be quite the show with Kuraby being his favourite place to ride in the world.
If you haven’t seen it yet click here for Alex’s web video from a few months ago.
Or check out this little edit Chris Courtenay made of his & Alex’s week in Melbourne a few weeks back.

Simon O’Brien in Japan
Simon O’Brien is over in Japan for 11 weeks doing shows with Michael Steingraber & Daniel Baker. He will also have the chance to hit up a couple flatland comps while there too. They also found a skatepark near where they are staying just outside of Tokyo so Simon will be kept very entertained during his stay. He also sent me these couple of pics before he left taken by Michael Harris, thanks Michael.

Epic BMX
On my last day in the states last week I visited a cool shop I had heard heaps about from Guettler called, Epic BMX.

Check out their website here as well.
