As we’ve mentioned before Ryan was recently in Brazil and whilst he was there he hit up the Jump Festival competition which we co-sponsored along with a shop called BMX20. It really does look like they have an awesome and tight scene over there.

The Shed Skatepark down in Cranbourne, Melbourne are having a series of comps leading up to a grand final in April next year with some great prizes up for grabs. More importantly though, good times on your bike to be had. I would expect that you will see our newest recruit, Dean Anderson there shredding. You may even be blessed with the Pete Radivo show. Pete rules.
The second one is set for this weekend… check the flyer below for full details.

The boss man Millar recently put together a new bike & after a few requests for a bike check on our FB this video came about. A riding / product feature filmed & edited by Glen McLaughlin our warehouse manager. Check it out.
I was out cruising on Sunday & decided to take a drive out to Beaudesert. I hadn’t been there in a good 20 years since when the old bowl was first built. I had heard about an extension being built a few years ago & wanted to check it out. I rocked up & there were a good amount of locals riding & all pretty much on a Colony of some sort, stoked. I didn’t have my bike with me but will have to go back out again soon, as the park looked real fun. Thanks to the locals there for being so cool, it was good to meet you all.

Mick has been doing demo’s in Perth.
“We’ve been doing 2 shows a day for the past seven days 1 in the morning and another at night. It’s almost coming to an end now, it has been a lot of fun riding, hanging out and running a muck. Lots of laughs have been had, lots of stuffing with peoples bikes and lots of hollaring and random peeps. Pretty much what happens when lots of bmxers get together and have a lot of spare time on there hands. Thanks to my little homie Brady Thomas for the pics. and also a big thanks to Shawn Jarvis of Freestyle Now for the hook up.”
One of Jourdan‘s local parks in Riverside CA. Super hot day, all filmed long lens as our fisheye got hit 2 days prior to this whilst filming Bobbie’s Ten Clips.

The show kicks of real soon so I’ll put up a bunch of riding photos from the demos. Big thanks to Shawn Jarvis for inviting me back.
Jump over to TCU for the exclusive web video we filmed in 4 days of our time in California. We are really happy with how it came out.
The other night was spent filming with a few of the guys at a friends warehouse which Pete always ends up destroying. As soon as he landed this he got a little loose and bailed off the edge of the spine straight into a car trailer which took off on him!
