Oskars Zajarskis also rode in the comp & repped for us, thanks guys. Should be good to see what happens in the finals.

Liam Zingbergs, Marnold & Brock Olive all scored invites to the Asian X Games in Shanghai set for the 28th of April till the 1st of May.

They will be mixing it with some of the biggest names in BMX street. The riders list looks like this… Jeremiah Smith, Dakota Roche, Dennis Enarson, Garrett Reynolds, Chad Kerley, Van Homan, Ty Morrow & Daniel Johnson. Our 3 riders will round out that list of riders. That’s one impressive line up to say the least.

The guys will be staying on for a few extra days after the comp to explore the streets of Shanghai. Cooper Brownlee will also be heading over with the guys to catch some action outside of the comp as well. Should be good.

One of my best days of riding ever was a few years ago over in Athens, GA. We rode the university there for a full day & could not get enough of the place. It was for me, the best day of street riding I had ever had and still stands as such today almost 5 years later. Check out the video below of that memorable day back in 2007 but first, we are supporting an event that happens there yearly. The Twilight BMX comp is going down on April 28th & should be a great day for all. If you’re in the area, get yourself along for the day.

Just a little update on my Canada trip. I’m having the best time, everyone’s really awesome over there. I’ve been riding joyride150 a lot, probably the best park I’ve ever ridden, and it’s bikes only, No scooters ever!! I had prelims yesterday for Toronto Jam and managed to qualify first. Today I got asked to enter the girls freestyle mountain bike comp, so I did. I’ve never even ridden one before, but somehow got first haha. Won $175. Pretty stoked with that. Tomorrow I have finals for BMX and maybe another MTB bike comp. – Peta.

Peta & Broc.

It’s snowing over there right now.

Simon O’Brien is in Japan & sent in a quick update on his trip so far… read on below.

I arrived in Japan on friday, a little bit colder here than back home, but it’s still great to be here. The following day was the G-Shock invite contest….I didnt win but was still happy with how I rode for the first comp back on the international circuit for sometime. It was great to catch up with great friends and some of the best riders in the business! 430 Clothing and G-Shock did an amazing job!

The last couple of days I have been chilling, checking the sights and checked out a 350 year old bonsai!

Thanks – Simon.
