Always looking forward to this each year & this year will be no exception. Maybe the last one in Vegas since Interbike is set for Anaheim next year? Mick Bayzand, Zac Miner, Cooper Brownlee, Tom Stretton, Ryan Guettler & myself will all be there this year. We have a team trip set for a week or so after Vegas as well. Can’t wait. If you see us there come up & say hi.

Paddy Gross is our main man in Germany & for good reason… a great rider & all round good guy. Thanks for repping Colony Paddy !! Paddy is planning a long over due trip out here to Australia for our summer, will be good to have you here mate. Photo taken at the recent Rebeljam in Portugal.

Broc Raiford comes through with yet another impressive edit from two days riding in & about New Orleans. Broc can pretty do anything it seems, I am stoked on this edit. Enjoy !! Filmed & edited by Andrew Sanford.

Our flow rider from Sweden, Jens Kahstrom recently got himself a new truck in the way of a Chevy S10 & thought it would be cool to jump it in full ’80’s style. Check it out.

Broc Raiford scored his first photo in the latest Ride BMX magazine that just came out. Pretty awesome photo & we’re stoked for Broc. Broc will be attending our West Coast Cali roadtrip coming up after Interbike in a few weeks. Should be good times for sure.

Well today went off without a hitch, everyone seemed to have a good time and the crew you see below were the top three after all was said and done! New flow rider Liam Zingbergs came in first along with Daniel Johnson (right) second and Macca (left) in third. Daniel Johnson also won best trick. Thanks to everyone who came out for the event and to everyone who made it possible. The next King of the Jibs will be in Brisbane on the 9th-10th of October later this year.

Valvoline sent in a quick update on what he has been up too of late. He recently went on a small trip to the south of Brazil in Florianópolis. He has also been working with Marcelo from Dream BMX building a hot rod as you can see in the photo below. He is also working on a fresh new web edit for us, so keep an eye out for that one.

Yo yo !!

South Australian shredder Liam Zingbergs recently got added to the flow team, you can now check his bio out here, long long nosey…

Our flow rider from the UK, Jonny Devine was in Australia a couple of months ago with some of his crew. They made a fun edit from there time here, good vibe in this…

Danny Heng has been added to our international flow team with the helps of the good folks at Twenty Inch Circle in Singapore. If you’re in Singapore, Malaysia or any other surrounding countries in the area, make sure you contact Simon at Twenty Inch as they will look after you with all things Colony.

Cooper Brownlee recently invested in a Canon 7D & this is the first trial edit with his new toy. Look our for a few clips from both Cooper & Marnold. Enjoy !!

Yo yo !!

Jens Kahlstrom our flow rider from Sweden, sent in a quick update to say he will heading to the Summer Session in Helsinki, Finland on August the 13th. You can click here for full details on the event. That park course looks fun for sure.

Yo yo !!

We have been out and about alot lately rolling around town here in Melbourne. Quite a famous spot this one. Marnold was psyched to learn new moves…

Liam Zingbergs has been riding for Colony through his local store Little Black Bike for a while now but we recently decided to make it official and put Liam on the flow team. Keep an eye out for a team page in the near future along with no doubt some solid edits from this young street shredder. This edit from nine months ago is pretty rad also.

The other night we went over to an indoor mini setup that Pete Radivo frequents and he killed it! You may remember this recent edit we did with Pete at the same place. This superman seat grab is rediculous, the spine is maybe 4 and a half foot high. Nice!

It might be sunny all year round up in Colony HQ land, Queensland. But down south here in Melbourne we sometimes have to retreat to the indoors to escape the rain. Last weekend we had a real fun session at a skater built spot (no beef here as far as I know). It works both ways you see. They skate spots we build and vice versa.  Here are a couple photos from the day of myself and Marnold. Thanks to Sam Illman for pressing the button on my photo.

This is our most recent advert which is currently on the back of the new issue of Focalpoint. Marnold riding an amazing spot with no run-up.

Thanks to Stu Munro for sending this photo over of Tom Stretton from the weekend whilst they were out rolling. Be on the look out for more on Stretton in the coming months.

The Core Series final was on Sunday & was a good day for sure. A good turn out & the riding level was really high with a few first’s done at the park. Decade airs, flip whips, front flips, smith to whips were a few stand outs from the day. So good to watch. Our own Peta Shepherd did well enough to get 7th on the day & 5th overall for the year in expert. Well done Peta !! Alex Hiam also rode well yesterday & took out 3rd place in the pro class. Thanks to Ange for the pics.

Yo yo !!

Jonny Devine spent the last month here in Brisbane & enjoyed every single minute of it. He just arrived back into the UK & is already making plans to get back here ASAP. This photo (Jonny is on the right) here was taken minutes before they all decided to ride down Mt. Cootha here doing 80 kmh in the dark !! Crazy. Even though I didn’t get to hang out with Jonny much while he was here, I can say that he fits into the Colony family very well. It’s good to have you aboard mate.

Yo yo !!
