Another day another dialed bike shop, Crucial BMX in Bristol was large, had some real cool staff and looked the goods. After Crucial we hit up a local vintage park that was fun and filled with Characters.

Today was a whirlwind day, it started off at Alans BMX shop which was a large shop with plenty of cool kids. Then off to Wales to visit DKA Wheels and Deeside park, the park was pretty fun with a dialed bowl. Then it was off to the famous Rampworx, without a doubt the best indoor park I have ever been to. Besides the ridiculous amount of lines to do and ramps to ride the vibe there was awesome! Thanks to everyone who helped us out at the stops.

We hit up Foundation BMX shop which had a good crew behind it and seems well established for only being around for three years. After the shop we hung out with the locals at the park for the afternoon which was crazy seeing how many riders were local there.

That evening we hit up The Arc indoor park, once again a good crew of riders were out which made for a good session along with an after hours session where some serious shit went down. Thanks to everyone that came out.

Simon shot through this photo of him getting everything dialed in for the up and coming Redbull Circle of Balance in Japan.

You may remember earlier this year some of the guys went to China and put out this awesome web video. Cooper just posted up a collection of photos from that trip up on Modicalimited which you guys should enjoy.

Yo yo !!

DRIVING! We seemed to drive all day, stopping at Decoy park for a little bit but after getting a flat on the freeway we didn’t have much time to ride with the locals before we had to haul it to LiferBMX. It was a crazy drive on a road that was barely wide enough for one car let alone two! Sam lost his mirror when we side swiped a campervan! It seemed like we were in the middle of nowhere but as soon as we got to LiferBMX it was an amazing site, so many riders to be at any shop let alone one in such a small community. Lifer is one dialed shop and run by good people who gave us great hospitality.

The first day of the trip after getting over jetlag and we headed out to Hastings to visit Source BMX. This place is dialed and has a crazy bowl setup inside the shop and an even wilder setup in the backyard. After we hung out there it was onto the bowl up the street which got a bit of a work out. Today we head onto Decoy.

Zac got a fresh setup just before he heads off to the USA to hang out with Ryan and visit Vegas! That Midnight Blue colour is hot!

Our New Zealand Boy Liam Marshall shot us through an update about dealing with the winter rainy weather…

A few of us have just started hitting the local indoor which doesn’t have to much to offer as it always has holes in the ramps after the weekend from scooter kids haha. We got a couple of shots from the other night when we had a good session though.

We have a competition coming up which is the New Zealand Xtreme games which is going to be a first for Nz since the old event X-air. I will be competing in the event for the park and possible street. The event will be on the 20-21st of October.
