We are supporting yet another jam going down in the Newcastle area, these guys are really helping to build a great scene in the Central Coast of NSW.

Really good video from the guys at 2020. Marnold, Brock, Zac and Liam all have some great footage in this web video. Zac took it hard multiple times trying whip to over ice down the rail, I can’t wait for the day he pulls that move. Marnold came 2nd with a stupid amount of combos, opposite x-up crooks?

The second King of the Jibs event went down back in August of this year & here is the video from the day.

The riding that went down was amazing & everyone seemed to have a great time. Thanks to all those that rode, came to watch & help out with the actual running of the day. You all made it a great success. Unfortunately though, the ramps have now been sold & this was the last one on this course. But we will be looking at doing another event next year… more news on that later.

The lighting inside wasn’t the greatest for filming but our warehouse manager Glen McLaughlin, did a great job doing so & he also edited this piece up. Enjoy.
