As with every year we are getting behind the SEL series happening in Melbourne. Get down to Warragul this Saturday for the first round.

Over in Adelaide in the coming weeks is a competition at the Elizabeth park which also happens to be where Mick Bayzand is from. We are getting behind it so be sure to hit it up if you are in South Australia.

The sun was out so we hit a few parks in the heat before heading down to Mandurah to check out the comp setup for today, if you’re in the area make sure you get down today for the event. Dean tuck at Claremont park just out of Perth city…

We had some heat then some rain over the past 2 days. We hit some good parks then a classic pool that you may recognise from the Colony DVD. A bunch of crew were already there which made for a good time. Unfortunately it looks like Alex has broken his hand from landing a bit wrong on a flair barspin. Yesterday it rained all day which stopped us from rolling but the weather looks good today so bring it on!

Jourdan and his crew put together this video with footage from good looking spots, pools and trails.

Myself, Clint, Alex, Tom and Dean are over in Perth for the week filming and heading to the Mandurah comp on the weekend. Today was a fun start to the trip hitting up a few parks and hanging out with local crew. Few random shots from the day, follow us on Instagram for some solid updates during the day/nights @colonybmxbrand

Liam recently got back from the USA and the Young and Retarded trip that he went on put together by The Come Up. Here is the trailer for the video that will be dropping soon, can’t wait!

Alli Sports put together a video bike check with Chris Courtenay where he runs through all of his parts along with some solid mini ramp riding.

Jourdan recently took a trip with a bunch of crew…

“I just got back from a Reno trip filming with the ODI crew for the new Black Book DVD coming out soon! It was a rad time, we spent a week driving from Riverside to Reno hitting all the city’s in between… Fresno,Sacramento and Woodward Tahoe I took a few big falls but made it back in one piece and was stoked on the clips I did get!”

Backbone Bmx have organised to get the ACT jam’s back on! We are behind it 100% as we know it will be an awesome long weekend!

Be sure to come out and hit it up on Sunday if you’re in Melbourne.

Brandon Van Dulken scored a pic or two in a photo gallery over on The Union site. They are at a special undercover dirt spot in Vancouver, Canada. One of the only dry spots to ride at the moment over there.

Thanks to the guys at Kill Em All Distro for the heads up. For any dealers in Canada looking to get our products, hit Kill Em All up for the goods.

We worked together with Valvo & the guys at Dream BMX in Brazil to bring out a Valvo signature seat exclusive for the Brazilian market. A small hand full are also available in Australia. Much like Valvo’s riding, it’s very smooth & stylish. Check one out at your nearest Colony dealer. They were only made in limited quantities so act quick.

Mick recently setup a new rig and sent through a few photos of it at his favourite spot in the world no doubt…

We just got Ryan Winterbotham‘s team page up with some great photo’s shot by Ben Mark, you can have a look here.

New Zealand flow rider Liam Marshall sent us through an update from the past couple of months…

So I started the year off with a nice chill down in Queenstown with a couple of good mates. We went and stayed at the Redbull house, cheers to Jaden Leeming and the guys at redbull NZ for hooking us up, we tripped around a little bit and went around to Wanaka one day to film some clips and just see what the South Island had to offer. Couple of days later we meet up with photographer Miles Holden and went to this small little town of Glenorchy which had some great views and had a sweet little chill park, there was a sweet quarter to session so we caught a few shots on that.
We made a little chill edit of our times down there, which you can watch here.

I’ve also been doing a couple of demos on a box jump lately around Auckland city just for Auckland council which has been good fun…

Coops just released issue 31 of the Focalpoint, another really good issue packed with content from Australia. The guys have a very up to date Facebook page as well so give the guys a Like!
