Spotted this re-mix of Marnold’s recent Focalpoint – The Package clips & thought it was pretty good. Check it out.

This video serves as testament to Brock’s riding abilities & serves as his official welcome to the pro team edit.

I had the pleasure of filming Brock over the past few months whenever I was in Brisbane along with a trip he made down here to Melbourne. Brock is a really fun guy to ride with because he will be keen to hit pretty much anything. Although he is stupidly good at riding bikes, he is very chilled about it all.

Congrats Brock & thanks for putting in the hard work.

Check Brock’s edit below along with a quick Q&A about filming for the edit.

What clip was the hardest to film?
Umm…The switch 50 to over whip because it was the first one I’ve done.

What would have been the most satisfying clip to film?
Probably the switch ice on that red rail.

For you personally were there any firsts for you in this edit? The 360 to smith to whip would have been the first time you’ve filmed that wouldn’t it?
I think probably half the edit was all firsts for me, I always like to film new and different stuff but yeah the 360 smith whip I actually filmed one of them the day before I filmed this one for my edit.

You don’t seem to have an opposite side pegs nowadays, how long have you been running 4 pegs?

Hahaha umm about 6 months I think with 4 pegs.

Any tips for people learning switch grinds?
Lots and lots of trying.

I know when you came to Melbourne one of the main spots you wanted to go to was the yellow flat rail, we also had a bit of a crown when we rode there. Were you happy with what you got at that spot and were the kids an issue for you?
Yeah that spots dope, I was happy with all the clips we got and the kids were fun to mess with they were all just so excited and some of them were telling me to wax the rail, pretty crazy.

Most of the clips we filmed were either on a flat ledge or a rail, what gets you stoked to want to ride those sorts of spots at the moment?

Yeah well since I’ve put 4 pegs on I’ve been grinding heaps more and yeah those spots are fun to grind and good to try and come up with different lines and tricks.

You took a few hard slams aswell, especially in Melbourne. Any of them really get to you?
Hahaha I’m a hack and crash all the time but none of them crashes worried me you just get used to it.

Our Canadian friends KEA Distro recently went on a team trip and our flow rider Brandon Van Dulken was on hand to shred it. Plenty of good moves in this so make sure you check it out. KEA have the entire range of Colony making it readily available to everyone in Canada, thanks guys!

Our boy Oskars Zajarskis from Latvia hows some great footage in this split edit with his friend Kristaps Reimanis, the park looks pretty fun aswell!

Alex Hiam broke his leg a little while back so the filming for this project was cut a little short but he still came through with a bunch of quality moves. You can read more about his frame here.

Liam Zingbergs spent a few weeks in Long Beach at the OSS house earlier this year & this edit is the end result. Liam had a great time & put some work in for this video. Some bangers for sure but I will let you check it out & decide for yourself. Enjoy.

A big thanks to everyone that showed Liam around & took care of him whilst he was there, it is appreciated.

Yo yo !!

Bruno has some good clips in this edit from The Pegless Jam 5, that indoor park looks real fun!

We filmed these clips at Marnolds local park Ringwood sometime last year but never really planned what to use them for so here is a quick edit of some solid lines.

Filmed during a quick session before he moved back to Latvia, Oskars Zajarskis put together this video at The Alley skatepark in the UK. Doing it for Par BMX in Latvia.

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.

Yo yo !!

Focalpoint have a new tee out now & here is a cool promo video for it featuring Marnold & Cooper. You can order the tees here now.

It was leaked a couple times last week for those that were savy on their website news but it is official, Broc Raiford is moving on from us here at Colony.

It’s sad to see him go but it’s all on the very best of terms. Like all things in life, things do change. I personally would like to publicly thank Broc for his efforts over the past few years. We were his first sponsor & helped build his reputation & image out there in the BMX world to what it is today. It’s been amazing to have watched Broc turn into the amazing bike rider he is & I wish him all the best in his future endeavours.

As Broc’s last rep for Colony, he went to the Toronto BMX Jam on the weekend & placed an impressive 8th in pro park. Congrats.

We have also done up a little farewell edit for Broc using clips he collected for his section in The Colony DVD from last year. Thanks for the good times mate.

Late last year while we were down in Adelaide for a team trip, both Ryan & Valvo filmed for this joint ten clips. The guys had a blast doing so & it shows in the riding. Both were in their element on these trails, check it out.

Brandon Van Dulken joined our team a few months ago now & has been killing it up in Canada for us. He got together with Ben Jenacek to film this welcome edit over 2 days at the Joyride 150 park.

Alex and Clint teamed up to film a split ten clips at Woodridge park, enjoy.

Although this has nothing to do with Colony, it’s for a good cause so make sure you watch this solid trails video to help out the locals keep their amazing spot. More info here.

Go to The Union for more videos.

The Selftitled DVD was released in 2006 & features O.G. Colony team riders, Ryan Guettler, Nick Richardson, Kenny Raggett, Haimona Ngata, Pete Radivo & myself along with a large crew of riders.

It took us 3 years to film for this & it took me 9 months of editing. Crazy thing is after 9 months of editing, my hard drive crashed & we nearly lost the whole damn thing. After an epic 12 hour straight drive from Brisbane to Sydney, had Matt Holmes save the day with his Mac savvy knowledge. Thanks Matt !!

This one for me, is full some amazing memories & a chapter in my life that I will never forget. Good times for sure.

Yo yo !!

An oldie but a goodie from Mick Bayzand, this is almost four years old now, back when Mick was living back in Vancouver. So many good rail hammers in this.

Another 10 clips edit from Valvo. This was from an afternoon down at Browns Plains park which Valvo had never seen before but seemed to really enjoy. It must have been 40 degree’s this day but it still all worked out.
