Our good friend & team rider from Brazil, Valvoline is coming to Australia in November to stay in Brisbane to ride. We will organise a road trip around his visit which should be good times. Can’t wait to see you here mate.

Yo yo !!

Due out in October all around the planet… check it.

Yo yo !!

Our 2012 complete bikes will be out in early October around the planet. There will be the ever popular Endeavour & Descendant in fresh new colour ways. We will also have for the first time, the all new Inception, which is like a more affordable Sweet Tooth style bike for the smaller riders.

We will also Ryan Guettler’s first signature complete bike with us called, The Living. At the top of the range will be the very limited edition Teddy Pro, Sweet Tooth Pro & the all new Miner Pro. These pro bikes are in very limited numbers with less than 10 of each model made for the world. Expect all these 2012 bikes out in early October.

The guys at Strictly BMX however have a very limited run of only one bike each on the above models. With the exception of the Miner Pro, who the guys at Backbone BMX have since Zac rides for them as his shop sponno. So act fast & get in touch with the guys at Strictly or Backbone & be the first to have the 2012 bikes now.

Flow rider from Latvia Oskars Zajarskis sent through a quick edit form his local park, some good moves in this and the park looks real fun.

Flow rider from Germany and good friend Paddy Gross sent in a bit of an update for everyone…

Hope all is good and everyone is having fun doing what you like to do. I am doing fine, still missing the good times I’ve had with all of ya. I am riding heaps of demos this month and right now I am writing this update from europeans biggest games convention tradeshow kinda thing where we’re playing our own game on our bikes. I am also having heaps of fun with my new bike and “The Living” frame works real good, loving it!

Besides riding demos, doing workshops and working in a porn store I am filming heaps for my next web edit which is going to with one of my best mates and a little less tailwhips haha, I love to do that trick but too much is too much. We’re going to make this edit also look like a little message for the kids outhere, just to give them an idea to do their own thing and don’t have to follow any trends to be a part of the BMX community, we’ve been filming for the last 2 months for it and it’s almost done. there’s some photos attached taken by a friend who loves to take photos, hope you’ll like them. ok that’s it for now, more soon! take care all of ya and stay happy’n healthy. cheers-Paddy.

The rescheduled Belconnen comp/jam is on for tomorrow, it looks to be good weather this time too. A big shout out to Backbone BMX for putting this one… should be a great day.

Yo yo !!

For those in the Brisbane area, it’s pretty obvious that the Core Series Final set for today at Morayfield is cancelled due to bad weather. The weather isn’t quite as bad as the pic below from the floods here earlier this year. Then, the park was completely flooded. Keep an eye here for news on a new date if it will be rescheduled.

Yo yo !!

Marnold, Chris Courtenay and Brock Olive have all recently had Oneclips in the Focalpoint clip a day series.

Ryan Guettler recently went to France for a dirt comp & he is there for a couple more weeks yet. Here is what he had so say…

Jet lagg could be one of the worst things to go through!! When every one is sleeping your wide awake looking at the clock watching the mins tick by and when every one is fresh and ready to ride your trying to hold your eyes open sucks so bad!!

Me and Jaie Toohey have been in south of france for 5 days now on our 2.5 week trip. Its been fun and we have meet up with alot of other riders, we are sharing a house with Cam white, Josh stead and Danny Jose (Hungry Monster rider) Staying in the house feels like when I had to stay at my grand mothers place no TV, no internet but we play lots of ping pong out side every night. Me and Jaie go to Mcdonalds for the wifi which is so slow, its been 30 mins so far on uploading theses pics and it may not happen i hope you guys get them.

I bought my video camera and have been filming every thing we get up to so look out for a video when i get home.

Yesterday was the Lords of Dirt comp. Very BIG jumps and huge roll in the pics do not show how big theses thing are. 9 foot lips and 15 foot landings. I came from dew tour very sore and a bad knee which needs rest but competed and just missed the finals, I had a rough time pumping the sets with a bad knee so gaining speed was so hard.

Josh stead rode well and did the run of the day ending with a double flip but it was 2 runs count so he ended up in 6th
Cam White rode solid and even flip superman seat grabbed the 2nd jump over 30 ft long and ended with 2nd place
Jaie Toohey killed the event every run was a winning run. He rode faster and higher then the rest and won the comp and placed 2nd in the best trick with a 360 triple whip!! Jaie looked at home on theses massive jumps the nitro circus really paid off.

This week we are doing Monster demos in the down town area then on the weekend is The VANS kill the line. Which is a comp in the woods with big jumps again I am really looking forward to this comp.

Yo yo !!
