Little video showcasing the ever so popular plastic pedals. You can read more about the pedals here.

Hey guys, quick update to let you no whats going on with me. As you might know I broke my hand filming a few weeks ago and yesterday I had a meeting with a plastic surgen to see how things are going. Turns out the break in my hand is quite severe in the lower part of my ring finger and the bone has droped and twisted. They wanted me to have surgery and put two screws and a plate in there but because I did it a wile ago the bone has started healing so they’re just gonna leave it for now and hope it doesn’t move anymore or I will go under the knife. So I need to be real carefull the next few weeks and wear a stupid cast. HopefulLy it all heals up nice and I’ll be back on the bike in no time filming again.

Hey guys, I have surgery this monday to repair my torn cartilage in my wrist. I’m so excited because this means I’m closer to riding my bike everyday again. It took 2 months from when I first did it to now to finally get some answers and to find out I need Surgery, So I’m super excited to start the healing process. My surgeon is one of the best in Brisbane aswell so it’s that’ a little bit of stress of my back.

I am super grateful for the support Colony has given,I wouldn’t of been able to get this surgery Colony. The    medical costs are not cheap.

It’s a boring life with out BMX !! The bright side is I have a lot of free time now to work and Save some $$ for surgery & travel plans – I am planning to fly to France for FISE Contest and England for NASS contest next year.

Also Some great news is we are dropping my new Web Video sometime in september.

Millar putting his Guardian Forks with brake mounts to good use at a recent jam at Beenleigh. We’re one of the few brands to still make forks with brake mounts, always have, always will. Get your #frontbrakebrethren on !!

Last event I did was the VANS US Open bowl comp where I destroyed my leg and couldn’t walk for a week, well it all healed up just in time for the next VANS contest called Ecsc it’s a massive surf comp on the east coast and they always rock!! I got 3rd place last year so I had high hopes and after my final run I ended up in 4th this year so pumped. Scotty Cranmer and Sandaval where battling for the win and Sandaval came out on top killing it.

Paddy had been talking about filming a front brake video for sometime now, probably ever since he put front brakes back on a year or so ago. I am so stoked on the creative moves throughout this video of Paddy riding his local The Lumberyard. There are also a few guest clips from some of Paddy’s friends who all hold their own. Thanks to Levi Weert and Spencer Wolfe for filming/editing this.

This weekend Cooper Jack and myself packed up the van and headed out on a little road trip to finish up some web videos. Everything was going well until we found this beautiful steep rail I just couldent pass up, unfortunately there was a fence right at the bottom exactly were you would land. Me being me I just thought; dont worry just pretend it’s not there and I will deal with it when I get there. but it was there and I grinded straight into it at full speed. I got straight back up and got the clip then the pain set in and turns out I broke my hand and rolled my ankle so it looks like I am going to be off the bike for a little bit.

I spent the afternoon with Polly the other day and we smashed out a few shots whilst at Reservoir park in Melbourne.

Ricky has some wizard moves through this mixtape from the EC crew, check it out.

The KEA trip over in Canada looked like a real good time! Couple Brandon shots in the mix, check them all here.

Hey guys, I just got back from my trip over to the UK. The month went so quick, rode in Nass festival and also Bmx Cologne in Germany. Bummer but I hurt my knee in Germany which I’ve been sessioning physio a lot since I’ve been back to get strength in it and is already starting to feel better and better. Stoked! Apart from that just having a goodtime and can’t wait to finish filming for a webvid I have going on. I’ll keep you guys posted.

Nathan scored a real nice shot in the September issue of BMX Plus. Banging 360 turndown at FOD.

Stas over in Moscow just dropped a new video filmed with cool moved, I was really into the bars to T-Bog clip, have a watch…

Hey guys just a little update to let y’all know I’ve been out an about lately.. Despite it being around the 5 to 10 degree mark at best for the last few weeks we’ve been out riding some spots. I’ve got a new bike to which I’m over the moon about and it’s made me stoked to ride.
Besides that me the mrs have been busy traveling a bit, been up to the Blue Mountains abseiling and stuff. Just been trying to keep motivated in this weather. But better then being stuck in the house. Can’t wait for some warmer weather!

Jourdan really came through on this video. Unique spots and creative lines had me wanting more the entire time. Shoutout to Larry Alvarado for putting this together it was a banger…

Hey guys. Just checking in to say what’s up. Lately I have been trying to be busy with work and just ride when I can. We are still filming when we can but it’s not that easy. Still, things are coming along. Cooper Brownlee is coming up so visit with two more of my favorite people next week, Zac Miner and Mick Bayzand, so I’ll be riding and clipping with them hopefully.

If you see any of us out, make sure you come say hello. They are always down for a chat and a roll. Also, my leopard rims should be coming out real soon. Here is a photo to drool over haha. So stoked on how these came out.

Jourdan and Larry have some clips in this promo for Stacked BMX Shop which is Larry’s project in Riverside CA. The guys stock Colony so get down there and give them some love.

Hey guys!

I have some bad news & some good news. Bad news is My MRI results have come back & its confirmed I need surgery on my wrist. It has cartilage damage, so there doing keyhole and fixing it all up! I have a appointment on the 14th with a surgeon on the 14th of August to set a date for surgery. So until then it’s a waiting game !

The good news is my dad has me covered under private health! That means I save $5000 on hospital/surgeon costs for my wrist. When I turned 18 he told me he stopped paying my private so I got my own normal health and the doctor said my insurance wouldn’t cover anything. So he defiantly saved my ass! Thanks dad, very lucky! Lesson learnt – always have private health, it can save ya loads $ !!

I have been loosing my mind not being able to ride, but I have had a lot of hours at the cafe I work at, loving the barista life!! I also have been out exploring a lot spending some time with my canon 600D getting into photography. It’s super fun. I’m at the gym everyday keeping active.

Keep up to date with me over on Instagram @alexhiam. Thanks a lot !!! Can not wait to be back on my bike.

We were stoked to be apart of the CDN CNCRT over in Canada again this year. Brandon actually ended up winning the comp side of things but from the looks of this video everyone got down and shredded the fun looking park. Shoutout to KEA for putting on great events in Canada.
