On the weekend there was a jam at Erindale in Canberra. Cooper Brownlee shot this pic of Zac Miner doing his thing. It’s good to see so many jams happening around the country. Get out there & support the next jam in your area or better still put on your own !!

I recently put together two new bikes & this is one of them. I am really stoked on how this one turned out. Silver Storm frame, forks, bars & cranks with Dark Blue parts all round. I am looking forward to riding this baby. I will post photos of the my other bike in the next day or two, stay tuned.

On our long drive back from Tamworth yesterday we stopped off at a few cool spots to stretch our legs. The first spot was called, Balancing Rock & as you can see from the photos it’s exactly that. Pretty cool to see for sure. Further on down the road we found a few different rocks that could be ridden so Tom & Alex did some stunts. It was really hard to get speed for it but they both got it done. Tom with a topside & downside tailwhip nosepick & Alex spun the bee’s. Good job.

Simon has been keeping busy of late with a few projects such as his next solo DVD which I am sure will be amazing. Can’t wait to see that one.
He also recently just got back from Sydney doing some demos at a b-boy break dance event. He said it was amazing with some of the best breakers in the world there. He also clocked some footage there as the scenery was amazing.
Simon also put together a couple new bikes based around his DejaVu frame, one for street/ramp & the other for flatland. Check them out below.

Peta Shepherd dropped by the office today to pick up a new bike. She will soon be rolling on a brand new Teddy frame in our Candy Red decked out in all our new parts.
Peta also showed me her dislocated finger which she suffered the other day while riding, ouch. She will be off the bike for a couple weeks but this will give her time to get the new bike together. So all good. Check back for pics of her new bike soon. Photo credit on the tailwhip nosepick goes to Renee Junga, thanks Renee !!
In other news… our good friend Angela also put together a new Teddy frame in Purple Storm. Check it out below, looking the goods for sure.
