Haimona & Colony part ways
Haimona Ngata has been a part of Colony for almost as long as Colony has been around but today he leaves our family. Everything is still totally cool & I must thank Ho for all his support these past years & wish him the very best in what ever may be ahead for him.
I am looking forward to the next time we can polish off a bottle of Black Sambucca & talk shit about mowing the lawn in Boks, haha. Only Haimona will understand that one. Thanks for everything mate !! You rule.

Backyard Blitz…
Ryan sent me a quick email with some pics… read on below.
The back yard ramp will never stop growing… I had to cut down a bunch of trees and we built a new box all the way to the fence line. It’s opened up so many new lines in the yard so keep an eye out for some new web videos. In the next few days I’ll be painting the ramp and this weekend I fly to Orlando, FL to judge a Vans Am comp should be fun times. – Ryan.
