The LTD frame is nearing completion with the fine folks at FBM & here is another little peak at them. Here you can see the special numbered badge that will be on the down tube near the BB shell. You can also see the drop outs that will be on the frames as well. Check out the drawing for the finer details of the geometry.

Expect these frames to be available in very limited numbers in Australia & France only in about 6 weeks.

Spotted this awesome edit over on the Vale BMX site featuring Tim White riding the GC Compound. Some really cool stuff in there for sure & well worth the looksy. We flow Tim a little bit of stuff every now & then, through the guys at Vale BMX who run a really dialled shop down on the Gold Coast.

Simon O’Brien was recently up in Brisbane to film & crashed riding the bowl at Fairfield. His knee has now swollen up pretty bad & is in a lot of pain. Hopefully he isn’t out for too long & will be back on the bike soon enough. Rest up mate.

Yo yo !!

Our flow rider from the USA Broc Raiford really put together something special, he does a bunch of good moves in this on some really nice looking spots. Nose bonk to rail was dialed…

In other Broc news, he went into surgery yesterday to have his teeth fixed up after losing a couple in Toronto a couple weeks ago. Wishing you the fastest recovery mate.

Today Zac did some damage to his knee, hopefully it’s not to bad. We were just watching the clip from it and this screen shot is a perfect description of the pain he was in after the incident, what he was trying would have been awesome though…

Simon O’Brien did some riding for an FMX crew recently & they put together this edit in between shows, enjoy.

Cooper Brownlee sent in a little email about a new park near his place, read on below…

We have a new indoor park just opened up 15 minutes from my house called, Rampit. If you’re into grinds you will love this place, super fun with some cool lines. I just wish they would fix the slippery concrete. Thanks to Sam Illman for the photo.

Myself, Zac and Mick drove down to Adelaide today/yesterday, Here for some unfinished filming business. We stopped into Little black Bike which is one of my favourite stores in Australia, so dialed! Matt and Jack hold down a good store so make sure you pop in if you ever come to Adelaide.

We are proud to be continuing the support for the Core Series up in Brisbane, you can get all the up to date info on their site here. The first one is next month so make sure you get out there…

Paddy Gross sent in a quick update of what he has been up to since his visit down under last month…

So after my amazing Australian experience I am back in Germany and things started getting pretty much back to normal. I am working again and already started to save up again for my next Australian trip hopefully very soon. I miss the whole team cause everyone treated me like we’ve been friends for years and that’s what Colony is about. I remember when Clint said “I want you to be a part of the Colony family” Now I know what the “Colony family” is about, it’s about fun, friends, smiles, love, adventures, ideas and being authentic.

So I am getting ready for the season and for now all I am doing is riding demos. Last weekend I’ve been in town where I grew up and after two years I’ve had a good sesh at my local skatepark and at a new indoor place which just opened a couple month ago. Well I’ve taken heaps of memories from the good times in Australia and they make me smile everyday.

Thanks again to Clint Millar & Glen, the whole team, the bike shops and the beautiful Australian country for making me have one of the most amazing times in my life. Cheers! Paddy.

So the last week has been abit fun, been spending my time in Canberra/Queanbeyan just resting up after gettin outta hospital. Hanging out with the Queanbo girls, always a laugh! Went to Nitro Circus last night ha, kinda surprise me how good it kinda was, alot of flips but non the less all the guys moto or bmx threw down. By the end of the night 3 people including Travis Pastrana, were in hospital. About to get on the plane today to get back to Melbs and take off to Adelaide, can’t wait. Anyways holla y’all.

On the long drive from Melbourne to Brisbane a few weeks back we stopped in at a cool new park in NSW called Swansea.

Just a few clips of Zac Miner, Cooper Brownlee and Liam Zingbergs hitting it before the rain set in.

Filmed by Cooper and Zac, sorry about the extra wind blowout in the audio, the external mic broke the day before and it was super windy…

To celebrate the official opening of the new park at Wallsend in NSW, there is going to be a huge jam for all to come ride & have a great day. April 10th is the day & there will even be a few of our team riders down there as well. See you there !! Proudly supported by Drift Bikes along with many other fine people.

Random photo of Marnold from last year that I forgot about until i saw it on his facebook, lofty three to fakie in Melbourne…

Liam Zingbergs had a recent Oneclip from the Focalpoint 365 project…

I like coming over here to Taiwan. I usually come to visit my agent & the factories around 4 times a year. I am here once again for the international bike show putting the final plans in place for the 2012 ranges, which will be out in September around the planet. More on those in the months ahead.

The view from my hotel window of the world’s second tallest building, Taipei 101. This building never get’s old to look at, so crazy tall it has to be seen to be believed.

Thanks to Sam Routledge for sending over this photo of Chris he shot at the recent flood jam at Beenleigh park, you can see more of his shots here.

With recent events in Japan, I would like to express our concerns for anyone affected in the tragedy, our thoughts are with you.

Simon O’Brien has been over in Japan for the past 6 weeks or so & just got back home. He travelled around the country a fair bit doing the tourist thing. He didn’t take his bike but had a great time seeing the sights. He even dropped into see our Japanese Distributors head quarters. He also checked out a shop called Decade & hung with the locals. Here are some words from Simon…

Here’s some pics from my trip to Japan, was a great time seeing more of the country and culture. Made my way up to Hokkaido, the snow is amazing like everyone says it is. Also made my way down to Kyoto and Nara where Colony distro is based. Did some shop appearances and caught up with friends, it was cold but a great time!

Good times with the locals.

A while ago we released the news that we were doing some very limited edition frames made by FBM in the USA. Well, all good things come to those who wait & finally after many delays, the frames are getting close. Below is a photo of them tacked up & ready for welding. They should be available in about another 2-3 months tops but better late than never I say.

There will only be 50 frames produced & only available in Australia with some possibly available in France through Unleaded in very small numbers. Get in quick with your local dealer if you want to secure yourself one.
