 Stowaway Spring 2010 Catalog is now online..

Ralph Sinisi the owner of Animal once told me they "Were making moves" never a truer word  was spoken. From pushing the envelope of product design to having one of the most recogonized teams in modern streetriding Animal is truly making moves.  There winter range is in all of the premier BMX stores accross the country right now.

if you live in and around the Adelaide CBD the place to go for these items would be Little Black Bike.  One of there loyal LBB team is Josh Kathigitis who is also on United flow through us here. Rubers caught him mid shred last weekend on his new KForte.

DJ is on the prowl right now working his ass off traveling all over the place and even entering the odd comp here and there with some very decent results. Here he is flinging em somewhere in the depths of a Melbourne Winter. DJ has already got his shop sponsorship being looked after by Melbourne Heavweights Strictly BMX. We are siked to have this longtime shredder holding it down for us on the Animal flow programme.

A few years back Jason Cousins told me he was going to start a roadtrip service for BMX riders that wanted to get out of there surroundings and ride new things. Fast forward a few years forward and the man has made it happen! Not content with just helping out BMXs ride new stuff he is now offering his services to combine trips for surfers and bodyborders that want to hit some new waves and he has even booked the Vans US Skate team for an upcoming tour! Heck Yeah Jason so rad to see all this hard work come together for you mate! I have had the pleasure of being on the road with this cat over the years from Kempsey in NSW to Upstate New York and its safe to say its always been a good time.

Jason filling up the Uplander in upstate New York some years ago. Wether it being riding Minersville till dark or merely pulling a handbrakey over the the median strip in Niagra falls there is probably not more travelled dudes on the road out there than this guy. Keep it up Boss the world needs more people like you!

Limited spaces for this dont sleep on it!

Gold Coast trail cat has never been really down on super loud colour combos and his new whip is no different.  We recently flowed Pat a new setup based on the FBM Steadfast frame and Nice forks. Black is back on the gold coast, but did it ever go away?

No frills all the way for Pat.

Pat opted for the Bicycle Union Motorcade Bars in 8.25 to round out the deal. Pat is on FBM flow through us and in conjunction with Helensvale BMX, So if the Gold Coast is where you are at and you want FBM products, Go and see Mitch and the crew there!

We have been slammed with product from Animal over the last few days, Get onto your favourite BMX shop today to get the scoop on all of the latest and greatest from one of the most loved and respected brands in BMX.  More clothing and softgoods expected over the next few days as well so dont sleep on this stuff its going to be gone before you know it! One of the Animal riders holding it down for us out here is Liam Fahy Hampton, Liam has always amazed us with his textbook skill and precision on the streets and we are looking forward to what he can come up with in the future. Creative and dialed are two ways to describe Liam and we are siked to have him on the Animal team out here for sure!

LFH Down for life!

New Nylon BBs Just rolled in today, more colours than you can poke a stick at and lighter than reg aluminium jobs.

Headsets are back in stock now as well, Purps ,Black and Gold same old Animal steeze.

The much anticipated Tom White Tyres are now in Black and the fresh Whitewall as shown here, kevlar or wire beads. Moving fast..? Ah yes, match a pair of these up front and rear and the next thing you will be shredding the backstreets of your suburb like its Central Jersey. Well maybe.

Even though he almost left his wedding ring in my bathroom yesterday Nashvilles finest is on the way home now back home. After supping record levels of caffeine and shredding the gnar on the streets of Adelaide/Melbourne we were all sad to see him go. Look for some footage of what they got up to in the next few weeks! Also last but not least Tyson Jones Peni is the last of the United Oz team to pick up his new rig from the 2011 range and aint she a beaut!

So Friday the 13th was not a hindrance for the This is United Oz Debut! 100 or so heads crowded out the back room of the Astor and got a first hand glimpse of what all the crew at United have been working on so hard for the last 2 years. The scenery in this video need to be watched closely to be believed. This flick is an epic watch to say the least.

No Microphone equals bar shout outs to United for having Nathan out here just for the prem. Cheers a bunch.

Enough Coopers Pale ale flowing = good times all around!

Josh K, Nathan Williams , Ryan Lloyd and i discussing the finer things in life.

Much appreciation for everyone that came out and go hassle your local United dealer near the end of August to snag yourself a copy of this must own DVD. A big shout out to all the crew at the Astor for being so cool with the looseness, Andrew from Deringers for the equipment hire and Matt from LBB for the help and for also rocking the all ages gig the next day!
