Which Parts do you go through the most?

I find I go through pedals, grips and tires the fastest.

Describe your Bike setup and how you like your bike to feel…

I like it super solid not making any noise, not too light either or else everything starts to feel sketchy. Also into the feel of taller bars.

What part are you most particular about or do you feel makes the biggest difference on your bike?

Having the wheels true obviously. Angle of the bars make a pretty big difference and that they’re aligned with the front wheel, I don’t know how kids can ride without it being straight. It drives me crazy whenever the headsets creaking or the chains loose too.

Plans for the future?

Keep having fun and continue filming for a little web edit. Also start saving up this winter for a couple trips. I’d love to head down to Cali and check out Europe one of these days.

Big thanks to Clint at Colony, as well as Blaise and Tammy at Kill Em All Distro for hooking me up with the bike.

I’ve been hanging out, riding, and filming with some locals. Perth’s got some mad spots, so hopefully we’ll work on an edit here.”

Today was a good day…

Spent the day exploring New York City today again. We visited the 9/11 site which was rather emotional to be there. Just thinking of all those that lost their lives & what it would have been like to be there when it happened.

After that we headed to check out Wall Street & had some breakfast there. We then took a NYC Water Taxi on the Hudson River to check out the sights including the Statue of Liberty. After that we walked & checked out the Brooklyn Banks although they are closed off at the moment with construction.

After this we caught the subway back uptown to check out the Empire State Building. Such a great view of the city from up there. All in all, a great day.

Yo yo !!

Stretton.

Tom has a bunch of clips in this Mad Mondays edit which also features Mitch Wood who is one half of LUX.


 

 

The big apple…

Spent the day exploring NYC today & have much more planned for tomorrow yet. Snapped a couple quick pics on the go. We also saw a bunch of skaters filming in Times Square. The police nearby didn’t seemed fazed at all either which was cool to see.

Yo yo !!

From OKC to NYC…

We spent the day in OKC yesterday & the guys at Sidewall Distribution looked after us really well, thanks guys. I checked out Sidewall HQ & after that we had some lunch & went for a quick site seeing tour around the city. One thing Mark Owen showed me was the famous rail Mat Hoffman did back in the day. We then headed to the airport to catch our next plane.

We arrived in NYC late last night. As we flew in we had a great over view of the entire city. I have never seen a city like this before. So crazy big. We headed straight for our hotel & walked around a little & it’s pretty surreal to be here. Today we will be going exploring… should be great.

Yo yo !!

Liam off to China.

Liam leaves today for a street comp going down in China, best of luck my man. Thanks to Ben McPherson for the shots. Ben has a cool site called CastandCrew you should all check out.

 

Jays Jam #4

We are supporting the annual Jays Jam, make sure you make the trip out as it’s for a good cause.

In OKC… finally

Travelling can really suck sometimes. After Vegas we planned to go to Oklahoma City to visit the guys at Sidewall Distribution & have a nice relaxing Sunday there.

Well those plans got thrown out the window when our flight was delayed by 6 hours out of Vegas. It also didn’t help that we arrived 4 hours earlier for our flight. So after 10 hours sitting in the Vegas airport, we finally got on our way but then missed our connecting flight in Dallas. We were given a hotel room but only had 3 hours to try to get some sleep before we had to make the connecting flight. Finally after 24 hours of travelling, we arrived at our hotel in OKC, very much ready for some sleep. Our plans for Sunday blown out but least we finally arrived.

We will go visit Sidewall tomorrow & see where all the magic happens.


The view over Vegas at 11pm.

Yo yo !!

A very worthy cause…

The Athelete Recovery Fund is a very worthy cause & Ball Park Franks will donate $1.00 for every time this is watched up to $100,000. Well worth 2 mins of your time.

Mick gives us the latest on his trip….

Hey, it’s Mick again! Kimberly and I just came out of the rainforest in Paluma Range National Park. They call it “the village in the clouds,” and it sure was. We drove up a winding road forever to get to the top of the jungle. We hiked along the creek bed at Crystal Creek jumping over boulders and loosing ourselves further into the jungle. I went off on my own at one point and nearly stepped on a 6m long python! This thing could’ve swallowed a cow whole. I’ve never ran down a waterfall so quick in my life. Kimberly says it’s the first time she’s ever heard me scream. The river itself was the most amazing swimming whole I’ve swam in. The water was freezing, but beautiful. You came out feeling so refreshed. I swam around the rapids for ages. Then we hiked through some pretty dense jungle until we came across a set of some even bigger waterfalls. I went off on my own and followed the rocks nearly to the bottom of the mountain. That was a real adventure. I nearly died a couple of times crossing falling trees and leaping across the stones. I felt like a little kid again getting myself into trouble and finding my way out. It was a crazy adventure to say the least..

Advert – Cooper Brownlee

Cooper has the most recent advert in the current Albion mag. You can see the clip of this feble to over smith in his left overs edit that came out last week.
