Brock Olive edit…
Brock Olive has a promo edit for some fresh new gear from our friends at Dishonour. Some good stuff in this and I am pretty sure the guys filmed it in one day in Brocks home town.

If you’re in the Greenville area in NC, then make sure you get yourself over for the party that Ryan has organised to celebrate our DVD launch. Should be a great time for all with an open bar as well courtesy of Monster Energy & Ryan himself.

Zac Miner has been working hard on his DVD section the past 2 years & it was decided about a year ago that we would grace him with his own signature frame.
That frame called the Miner, will be out around the world this September. It will come in 20.75″ & 21″ sizes. It also has a short & responsive rear end at 13.25″ which is exactly what Zac wanted. It has internal gussets on the tapered top & down tubes for strength. We will release more info & specs closer to the release date.
Shown in our 2012 colour – Matt Red.
Unleaded & Soul BMX Magazine have teamed together to give someone the chance to win one a Miner frame. So if you live in France get to it. Click here now for full details.

Ryan Guettler took it upon himself to organise a massive premiere event in Greenville which I am so thankful for. Check the flyer details below & take note of the open bar thanks to Monster Energy & some of Ryan’s other sponnos. Wish I could make it this one as well but for those that are closer, make sure you do. It’s on this Sunday, so actually technically is the world premiere as well. Should be a great night.

Our good friend and team rider from France Bruno Faucon has some good footage in this edit from Maniable clothing. Most of the footage is from the park in Aurilllac which is the same town one of the DVD premieres is happening in.
Zac Miner has our current print advert in the latest issue of Soul over in France. Quick story about this photo…
We went to this spot during the day but the workers there wern’t to excited about us being there and after one attempt at it we got the boot. Being a golf course we thought it would close around dark however after we checked google it didn’t shut until 11pm. So we waiting until late and missioned into town, parked the car away from the place and wheeled the generator and lights up on the filming board, lit it up and Zac got it done first or second shot from memory. I love doing missions like that.
Pete Radivo & myself teamed up with Polly for a oneclip over on Focalpoint.
Marnold also has another recent one.

Ryan Guettler sent in a quick update of what he has been up to of late & what he has on for the weeks ahead…
I just got back from Budapest. I went there for a Monster Energy Dirt jump contest. Had a really fun time and even got 2nd place !! They built the course for the comp but also to leave it there for the kids afterwards so they were very small jumps, which were hard for me to do my bigger tricks on, I wish they were bigger but it was amazing event. Thanks to every one over there at Monster for taking care of me and showing me a good time.
I’m now back in Greenville getting ready for the 1st stop of the Dew Tour. I really excited but Dew Tour this year it going to be fun I’ll keep you up to date on more event so
