As you most likely know by now Chris was recently in France at the Fise contest, here is a quick run down from Chris about it all…

“What a week it’s been, I’m sitting at the local pizza shop as I write this. I’ve been out here in Montpellier, France for the Fise contest. Such a good vibe and easily the best contests I’ve been to by far. If anyone gets the chance to come I suggest you do. You won’t regret it! Finished up 12th in miniramp and 8th in park, super stoked on how I rode but it’s time for this mission of a flight home now! Peaceeeee.”

So a couple months ago we dropped the Alex Hiam video which has copped a whopping 129,000 views. As we said back then we spent a lot of time filming for this project partly because of Alex and myself living at opposite ends of the country and also a few injuries thrown in the mix.

As with most web videos that come out there is always some random clips left over, crashes and even a few riding ones so we wanted to put all that together for a little behind the scenes look into the filming of this particular web video. We will be dropping a few of thes ebehind the scenes videos in the coming weeks so I hope you enjoy them.

Mick turns 30 today, I’ve been fortunate enough to know and ride with Mick for a good 10 years now and I look forward to many more. Mick has put in alot of work on the bike over the years so I am sure his body feels alot more like 50. Enjoy the day mate.

Strictly BMX have been a strong supporter of us here at Colony since day one. Something we are really stoked about for sure. They would have to be one of the major BMX shops on the planet these days. They carry our full range of products including our entire 2013 range of complete bikes. From the Premise to the Inception & Endeavour to The Living, they have them all. Go check them out in store & online now.

Yo yo !!

We are stoked to be able to hook Valvo up with a signature colourway of the 2013 Teddy frame. There is only 10 of these available, most of which are over in Brazil via Dream Bmx so get in quick before they are sell out! There are a couple of these frames available in Australia as well, so act fast if you want a unique colour way Teddy frame.

I am really damn stoked on how this came out, Jack went in hard for this over the course of 5-6 months and came through with the goods. Follow him on Instagram @killjack

All the way from Singapore our friend Danny Heng sent through some shots of him out on the bike. Always good to see crew from all parts of the globe shredding the parts.

This time Chris scores some footage in the Vital edit from the park event where he placed 8th over the weekend. Well done mate !!

Zac Miner is the man. Pure & simple. Such a down to earth guy & amazing rider to boot. It’s for good reason he has had a signature frame now for 2 seasons with us & it’s one of our more popular frames out there. You can get his frame in 2 sizes – 20.75″ & 21″ which is what Zac rides himself. You can also pick up some very limited edition frame, fork, stem & headset kits too. Click here to check out the Miner frame in more detail.
