Tim Wood is an Australian vert legend. No one can deny that. With some of the highest & smoothest 900’s back in the day, he was a vert machine. These days Tim still rides when he can but also has some other passions… namely his two ex-Australian army tanks. He has started a tank ride business & you can for a small fee, get to ride on one of these awesome machines.

Hope all is well guys, here’s a shot from Railside park I’m hyped on. I rarely get to ride this place since I live far away now but it’s always a treat. Basically every day I get, I’m out trying to snag photos and film when the weather permits. Overall stoked right now!

Ryan is at Woodward West right now and he featured in their video series called spots where basically a rider talks about what part of Woodward West is their favourite then proceed to shred it hard which Ryan does…
We had a bunch of footage leftover from the D.I.Y project so we put them together with some B-Roll to give you a little more insight into the 3 days in the heat…

I’m writing a update from Woodward camp and it makes think how crazy that is to say. As a kid I grew up dreaming of Woodward camp I had all the posters on my walls, All the riders I looked up to I ripped out of magazines and tacked them to the wall. And one day I was riding Beenleigh and Colin Mackay was there filming, Colin lived on the other side of Brisbane so it was a treat to see him because he would always go highest over Beenleigh hip.. Before he left he handed out stickers to all the kids like how I thought pros would, he gave me a Woodward sticker and joked you should go there one day. I didn’t know what to do with it, it was too special to put on my helmet or bike because I might never get one again. I framed it with a photo of lot 8 and a photo of the dirt jumps from BMXPLUS. Crazy to think him giving me that sticker has motivated me this much. I’ve been to Woodward over 40 different times now and have the best times here !!! Thanks Col I owe you!!!
I’m here all week and some of next week getting some new tricks dialed before I go to Barcelona next week for an event. Here’s some photos of the good times.

We hooked up Vital BMX with 3 riding shots of our UK flow rider Ryan Winterbotham which we shot when he was in the USA recently. You can check all 3 photos right here and run them on your computer or phone’s background.
Our good friend Polly just dropped this video from what looks like a good day out. Shot by Sam Illman for Primary Threads…
I will let Ryan tell the story behind this cool project…
I’ve been doing a lot of recon tours and RV trips and see so much talent with in the Bmxers so Iv’e teamed up with the Monster Army program to find theses kids and let them tell their story and see what goals they have on the bike. I think it’s really cool to let them tell their story so it’s not always just about the big tricks.
Here is the first video which features Chandler Golden who is from Chandler, AZ. It also has some really good clips of Ryan mixed throughout…
3 clips of Alex that we weren’t using for current projects but still worth watching…
Vital just posted an in-depth bike check of our UK based team rider Ryan Winterbotham. You can view the entire bike check here and be on the look out for more from Ryan and Vital in the near future.
I only have positive things to say about the 2014 ACT jam that went down earlier this year and this 13 minute video gives you a good feel for it all. Thanks to Backbone and everyone that had a hand it making this all work.
We are getting behind the contest going down at Rampfest in Melbourne later this month. Be sure to make the session as it’s guaranteed to be a good day.
David shot over an update from West Aus, he has been going in hard of late riding as much as possible since his surgery. He will be moving to Melbourne next week as well so keep an eye out for him blasting a quarter near you.
Thanks to Shaun and Chris for the photos.
Hello everyone, next to a 6 day working week I find proper time to ride my bike. dunno how but I do haha. I also started filming for a new edit 2 months ago which will be all about the front brakes as after 15 years I decided to put them back on and it feels like being back in the 90’s. I am loving it so much and all I do is watch my old Baco Vision, Props etc. VHS tapes I’ve kept all these years and get my Inspiration from riders such as Dave Freimuth, Jason Enns, Dave Osato and of course the Boss himself Clint Millar. We wanna make the Video look as old as the tricks are so we’re not filming with high tech HD and what not but on purpose, just a few more weeks and we should start putting it together. Well that was it for now, hope all of you are happy and healthy, enjoy yourselves and have fun riding your bikes. until next time.
Both Jack and Dean have photos within the latest Photdump from Focalpointbmx. You can check out all the images here.

Just a quick update to what I’ve been up to,
The other weekend I went to the monster street comp in Odaiba, Tokyo. Some amazing riding went down. I caught up with Shuhei who is the Japanese Colony team rider, he was shredding and had made a big trip to the comp.
Last weekend I went to ‘Trinity Skatepark’ in Ikebukuro, Tokyo for the ‘On it’ jam. This was a great event, while riders and skaters rode the park, there was live bands, djs and food stalls. It was pretty much a party…people who wanted to ride could, those who wanted to drink and enjoy the music and riding also could.
This weekend coming im going to a big flatland jam on saturday then a demo on sunday. Should be good.
