Jourdan Barba footage
Any footage of Jourdan is good footage, some of these clips might be old but his technical rail moves never get old…
AveBMX – ALTER
The guys at AVE BMX over in Poland recently released a team DVD which to me is more of a movie compared to a regular DVD. It’s quite long but really well put together and both Mycek (starts at 5.50) and Milosz (starts at 40.45) have great sections within the video. It’s now online so get yourself settled and sit back for an hour and enjoy a great example of BMX at it’s purest…
Alex Hiam breaking boundaries

Nathan Sykes update
Hey guys,
Just wanted to check in on what has been going down the last month. Cooper was over in the states with Polly and we did a really fun trip to Fresno. Had a blast doing a Jam at the Fresno park with a good solid amount of locals showing up. Threw out some Colony, Division Brand and Locals Only product. I definitely get a little crazy when it comes to product tosses! ( Hahaha ) The last week Cooper was in the states we went on crazy pool missions and started an IG official pool crew! The SBPBOYS! Also finished filming for a new Colony edit that I’m very excited about and should be dropping in the next month. Did a fun project with my best friend and room mate Matt Cordova that I’m super stoked on too! Lots going on always and more to come in the next months!
Tom Stretton on the road…
Hey guys,
Just wanted to check in and let everyone know that I’m heading up north to Sydney for a week over the Easter break. I’ll be traveling for a few days from Melbourne riding around and then riding around parks in Sydney and the outer suburbs. After that it’s onto Canberra to catch up with friends and ride some parks.
If you see me, don’t be shy and come say hello and have a ride. I’ll be tripping solo so company for a ride is always awesome.
Can’t wait to catch up and have some good sessions!
Peace!

Alex Hiam update
Hey Guys,
I am back riding everyday now , feeling healthy and strong. So motivated to ride as much as I can.
Myself & Troy Charlesworth have been busy working on a new edit hitting all parks around Brisbane. Troy’s also filming separate videos with Boyd Hilder & Jason Wattz aswell, there all such good dudes.
The past week Ryan Guettler has been staying at my place. It’s been awesome having him here, never a dull momemt. the night he flew in, We drove to Alexander Headlands skatepark with Boyd & jason, Booked a hotel and woke up at 4:20 and shot the sunrise of the halfpipe on the beach. check all the photo’s below.
I just got back from the Fox Breaking Boundaries Tour. We flew to melbourne, Sydney & Goldcoast all in 5 days. At all stops there was a Fox Demo, signing, meet & great with the Fox BMX team. Was amazing how many kids were at these events riding there hearts out. Was a good feeling to give back to the younger riders. At Melbourne, Moomba festival, Me & Ryan got picked to feature on Australia wide national TV on Channel 10 for 30secs which was cool. So stoked I got to be apart of such a fun trip. I’ll never forget this one. Was great to hang with the rest of the Fox crew. On the trip, I took a little slam and got a real hip bruiser now, So for the next week I have to stay of the bike & let this minor injurie heal
Also Shout out to Wahoo Taco’s for the amazing taco’s the other day,,, Always looking after the Bmx’rs !

Hey guys just letting you all know what I’ve been up to.
Lately I’ve been working a bunch and riding when I can. Loving it so much down here in Melbourne. Everyone is sweet and I’m having the best time.
Last weekend I went to the Eat Children Crew DIY spot, jam. It was a blast. The Adelaide crew is seriously one of the sickest scenes around and I thank them so much for their hospitality and hard work on that ghetto set up. #fuckmurraybridgecouncil
This weekend there was Sam Tormey’s jam out at Morwell. Sam is a young local down here who has been battling a rare type of Bone Cancer. It’s such a shit thing but it was great to see all the riders that came out and showed support. It was also great to see you and say g’day Sam. Hope you had a ripper day brother. f#ckcancer
Also, I just got a new frame in the mail and I’d like to thank boss man Millar as always. I continued by taking paint stripper to it immediately and then to the rest of my bike hahaha. I love it. Let me know what you guys think.
Peace
Josh Dove
Josh Dove is one of our up and coming young rippers on flow in Australia & he kills it. He has been riding heaps of late with Chris Courtenay & making everything look way too easy on his 2015 Sweet Tooth 18″ bike. Keep an eye out for Josh, as his passion for BMX is strong. Expect to see a lot more of him in the years to come.
Yo yo !!

February has been a good month! Back on the bike and getting back into the flow of things. Shoulder is starting to feel a lot better. Still not fully healed but good enough to be back riding, which I’m im super excited about. Doctor said it could take a few more months for it to be 100% Also just worked out a order with Dans Comp for some Locals Only clothing.
