A couple weeks ago Broc won the high air contest and the best trick at a new park that just opened up near his house, High air was at 9ft and the best trick was a 540 air bars and a flair invert, nice! From what I can see the place looks rad!
This contest that was released a few days ago, has now been updated to include entries from all over the globe with a Colony prize pack with forks, pedals & grips up for grabs for the best entry outside of the USA. Check the Ride BMX site for full details.
After my crash in the USA 5 weeks ago I left my bike there with the guys from Ride BMX with the view to give it away via some kind of competition. Well, it’s out now & here is your chance to win my bike complete with a one off custom frame & our prototype Agenda tyres.

Last night was the Death by Wasabi contest at the LUX BMX Store in Brisbane. It was a great night & there was a very good turnout. Six people signed up for the wasabi eating contest for their chance to win a 2011 Teddy frame in our new Wasabi colour way. I have never seen so much Wasabi eaten in such a short period. In the end it came down to Tom McIvor with the win taking home the Teddy frame & Henry Boffin as the runner up getting a Wasabi Official stem & sprocket. Our first 2011 product customer ended up being Ali Hassan by getting himself a set of Wasabi Oneway pegs, congrats.
Thanks to everyone that showed up & thanks to Evan & Mitch from LUX for putting it all on.
Our 2011 ranges will be in stores Australia wide the week of September 6th. Most other countries will receive their shipments in September as well. Check with your local distributor or Colony dealer for full info.

Don’t forget someone will win a 2011 Teddy frame in our new colour Wasabi for eating the most wasabi tomorrow night. Make sure you’re there to witness this crazyness… who will step up to the plate? See you at LUX BMX at 7pm along with some of our team & a small range of 2011 teaser parts for sale.
