I’ve been working in Sydney for last 2 weeks on another art gig, Danger is involved with this project. This project is taking place in a skatepark, using the space to explore the world of abstract. The photo below is of Danger & I half way through our duo piece. This is the first development stage to do a show to try and get backing from the Sydney Festival etc for future development.

For the past week myself, Mick Bayzand, Zac Miner along with filmer Stu Munro were out on the road in-between Canberra and Sydney searching for spots and filming.

It was a pretty productive and fun trip besides Mick destroying both his wrists on the third day in Canberra we still got some stuff done and had a ball doing so. Here are a few random Iphone photos from the trip…

Here is our current RideUS advert that came out a couple weeks ago advertising the Teddy frame. Mick Bayzand downhill runup, over grind in LA back in September of last year…

One of our very first products developed was our Oneway pegs. Back then to make a peg light they were usually made from Titanium, this made them very expensive. So we developed our pegs with the unique offset internal machining process from either 7075T6 alloy or 4140 CrMo. Meaning our pegs are thicker on the bottom where you grind & thinner on the top where you don’t. Simple but affective. Check them out in more detail by clicking here now.

After almost ten years of lobbying spear headed by Shane Conlon down in Coffs Harbour, they are getting closer to having a park built there. The budget set aside so far is $1million so they should get a pretty decent park finally. If you could show your support for the park by clicking the link here & submitting your email it will form another sign of support to the Coffs Harbour council. There are some people in the community against the new park but if we all show our support for it it will go ahead. Click the link here now & show your support.

As you can see above, Coffs Harbour needs your help, their park as it is now is terrible !!
