Simon O’Brien sent in a quick email on some stuff he has been up to of late, read on below. Simon also heads over to Japan next month as well.

“The other day made the 7 hour trip out past Albury to Mulwala Lake where I did a demo on the Friday night and Saturday with the Showtime FMX crew. Good times hanging out riding and partying.

I also took part in another of Shaun Gladwell’s art projects in Sydney. This project will
be shown in Melbourne in May. Again the topic is spinning but from a different angle, the footage looked amazing!” – Simon.

Right now here in Brisbane, Australia there is a looming flood crisis at levels that have not been since the disastrous floods of 1974. Over the coming days, it is set to surpass those records set 36 years ago. My thoughts go to all those effected by this natural disaster. Already, lives have been tragically lost & let’s hope there are no more. I wish everyone the best in the days ahead.

I would like to officially welcome to the team, young Brisbane shredder, Brock Olive. I had been hearing stories of Brock’s riding of late & once Cooper Brownlee met him while up here a few weeks ago it became apparent that Brock needed to be a part of the team.

Brock picked up his package today with everything we make to build up his new bike. Expect a bike check in the days ahead. Brock is also working on a welcome edit… so keep an eye out for that too.

Welcome to the team mate, it’s good to have you a part of the family.
