Last night was an amazing night at Slay the Rails 2. Marnold ended up coming 2nd which was awesome. Here you have him doing a 360 over the rail, Liam with an oppo hanger and Zac with an over ice. The web video from this is going to be ridiculous as alot of hammers went down.

Some of the team are in Melbourne at the moment, here are a couple shots from a good day out yesterday. Brock Olive and Liam Zingbergs.

Alex Hiam turns 16 today… happy birthday mate !! To help celebrate his birthday here are a few web edits from Alex over the years on Colony.

Massive thanks to all the riders, people who came and watched, the judges and Dre for doing a good job with the Mic, it was a really fun day.

Congrats to Daniel Johnson for winning, Marnold came second with Jack Elkins in third. Raphael Jeroma-Williams took out best trick with a luc-e up rail to duster down the other side of the wedge rail.

Mick continues to run wild in the bushlands of northern Queensland…

Hey all! It’s Mick here letting you guys know what other adventures I’ve been up to. Kimberly and I drove into Byfield National State Forest just outside of Rockhampton. We lived in the rainforest fending for ourselves for a good while. I have to say, this was probably one of the best parts of the trip so far. We hiked along the rocks of the creek and got ourselves lost in the forest. I got to free climb some pretty cool rock faces before leading us through our own trails. We spent our nights by the campfire drinking goon, and I carved myself a couple tools for survival. We really got in touch with the more primitive sides of life. We chilled with a couple of crazy looking frogs, a bilby, and some other kind of marsupial my girlfriend thinks is said to be extinct. It was pretty amazing a part from having to shower out of breakfast bowls, but that’s all part of living in a rainforest. Stay tuned for our next adventures. Peace.

One of the main newspapers here in Melbourne The Age, hit us up with a bit of an interview about King of the Jibs. This was published in the Sunday paper and I think they did alright with it, usually articles written by people who have no idea what BMX is about end up all tacky but this seems alright. Have a read and see you on Saturday…

On my way down to Melbourne for this weekends Ausbike trade show & the King of the Jibs 2 & dropped into Canberra yesterday to check out the new park at Belconnen. Met up with Zac & Tom with the Afray guys. Wow, so much stuff there in one park. Worth the drive down for sure. The Canberra locals are lucky to have such a different park to ride.

Yo yo !!

I am back in Melbourne at the moment and this weekend I hooked up with Marnold and CO, it was possibly the most productive weekend riding we have ever had here. Marnold killed everything we rode.

Thanks to DJ for the photos.

The Ausbike trade show is this weekend & we will have a stand there with all our 2012 products on display. Don’t forget the King of the Jibs comp is on Saturday the 20th August as well. See you there.

Yo yo !!

Ready to shred right out of the box are our pre-built Contour wheel sets in all our 2011 colours. Check them out at a dealer near you now or for more info click here now.

Guettler scored himself a spot in the finals at the Dew Tour in Portland with a 7th place finish in the park semis. It’s good to see Ryan back on his game after being out so long due to injuries. Good luck in the finals mate.

The Core Series Grand Final for 2011 is set for August 27th at Morayfield skatepark. Should be a fun day for all involved, see you there.

Peta sent us in an update about her recovery from the crash she had a few months back…

I just wanted to let you guys know that I finally got my teeth fixed from when I crashed back in February filming for The Colony DVD. I would also like to say a big thanks to Clint for helping me out with the fundraiser tee and to anyone who bought one of the tee’s I appreciate it so much!

Next in the 10 Clips series of edits is Marnold. We had never lit up a spot in a school before so we didn’t know how it was going to go down. We waited until about 7pm rolled in there with all the gear set-up and it was game on. There was a cleaner floating about on the grounds but he didn’t seem fazed at all by what we were doing so maybe we got lucky that night.
