Skavenging for Animals in Shanghai

Kiebo and Jake Corless not just content with firing out some quality web video action of late have booked in to ride the Shanghai train in mid july. (Lucky buggers)  The last time Kie was over there he shredded hard and it was also the first time we ran into little Pat Wang who was about 14 at the time and saw fit to break out of his moms pad at night and party in the Bon Bon like an ape.

You can see Kie stressing on the tools here and chilling with his tight crew caught by the creative mind of Sion Bourne.  Enjoy the coming weekend peeps!

Doggies back on deck…

Well the doggies might be back on deck but there not the only things creating waves in Singleton, NSW of late.  Ryan Lloyd coming through with the back cover of the Singleton Argus from his recent demos up there.To be fair the interview was about the demos but the pic is a recent Dave Rubers joint that was to good to not get a printed home finally.

As in most areas now the temps are starting to drop as we make our descent into winter. Keep the bonce warm and simultaneously styling at the same time as with these fresh beanies from the diallers at United bike co, Blue , Charcoal or Black and under $20 a pop.You seriously cant go wrong with these bad boys. Might not make you ride like Ryan or Geoff Slattery but at least you will look dialed in the meantime!

United Classic beanies in good stores all over now.

Mike Tag rest in peace.

Our hearts go out to any human that has ever had to deal with the pain that comes with losing loved ones through the evil of cancer. To the family and close friends of Mike Tag we think of you in this tough time, Tag was a a big inspiration for a older generation of riders and we are for ever grateful for his burly riding and his great attitude. DIY as all get out and a rad dude to boot. Check out this awesome write up by Tunney over on ESPN.

See you on the other side Mike. It was a pleasure to have crossed paths with you mate.

Weekender!

Just got back from dropping the Ryan Lloyd to the airport where he is heading over to Newcastle for some youth week demos. If you see him pester him for some United stickers and have a quick look at his new frame… More on that next week. Fellow United teamrider Josh K is heading up to Mildura tommorow as well for the Grind event put on by the good crew at Mildura council.

Ryan last winter ADL city trails.

Grind event in Mildura 14th April

Make sure you get into your local and peep the new 2020 as well, Josh K got his second cover shot sharing it with fellow ADL shredder Mikey McMah.   Enjoy the weekend everybody!

Geoff Slattery is a certifed bad ass….

TIU Geoff Slattery

The first time i met Geoff Slattery was at some trails outside of Philadelpia, PA. Geoffs style on the bike and his rad attitude made me smile as soon we chatted about random things and i instantly took a like to the young chap from surburban Jersey. Fast forward 6 years and the kid is to borrow a phrase – a serious beast. Geoff has been honoured with one of the cleanest looking frames on the market right now and United recently popped his section from TIU online in all forms for your enjoyment. Geoff has a rad style that shines through in this section and makes me want to ride everytime i see it. We cant say that riding a Voyage frame will make you ride like him but it sure as well will ride comfortable and look dialed as all heck!This is the choice of Australian United rider Ryan Lloyd and if its good for him, im telling you its good for you. These are in all leading BMX shops in Australia right now so go in and check one out in the flesh.You wont be disapointed!

Now get off your computer and go shred the trails!

S&M Frontends…

The phrase “S&M frontends” gets used alot around here and with good reason. S&M have been knocking out some of the most respected hardware in BMX for almost 25 years now and with no sign of slowing down anytime soon. Canberra shredder Billy Hietanen is down with S&M and for good reason. S&M Stems like the Challenger and the Redneck. Bars like the Hoder and the Perfect 10s are popular for a reason. They are durable ,they work and they are not full of  hokey gimmicks.  Pitchforks with no word of a lie are one of the most popular forks on the market right now and if weight saving is what you are looking for try the XLT versions in Chrome or Black in your Local right now!

Get out there and enjoy your day!

Friday is here again.

Where does the week go… Damn it seems like its over before it all starts! Thats a good thing for everyone though. More shredding and chilling is never a bad thing.

Kie A is all over it right now. Although this was previously seen on Animal this was to good not to re-up.  Kie is actually working on a new edit as we speak with his buddy Sion and Jake and Tim. Amazing crew so cant wait to see what comes of that.  His fellow Animal team mate Sam Waters is also about to drop a new edit which he is finishing up as i type. Sam is a rad dude and we are siked to have him onboard and doing it for the brand that everybody and there dad is trying to emulate right now. Animal.

Good things happen for good dudes. Yeooow Sam.  Big shouts to Benny Mac for coming through with these killer flicks of Sam.

Enjoy your weekend and keep the rubber side down.
