Chris Harti has been givin em hell over at the Red Bull Roast It comp in NZ for the past week. The dude has currently made base camp at the Red Bull house & is riding the epic dirt park that is Gorge Rd everyday. Radness. Chris is off to the Farm Jam this week - good luck bro hymn!

If you're stinging for a bit more on Gorge Rd, head on over to James Keane's Tru BMX site.

Riders got number plates at Roast - pretty dope!

Twisted.

Chris' dwelling for the week - rad view!

Like we said late last week, Mike Ross was working on a Wethepeople/Back Bone web vid. Well him & filmer Troy Harradine don't mess around, cause here it is for your viewing pleasure. Mikey destroys in this video & does a lot of things I've never seen before. Not bad for 5 days work!

Watch this video. This one from BMX Union helps out the legendary Catty Woods stay alive & kicking. The more views this video gets, the more money is donated to the locals at Catty to help cover annual expenses (like insurance etc.)

Help out your fellow BMXer by watching this video, then re-post it on your facebook or site. Easy.

Mikey Ross has been busy filming a little WTP/Back Bone web vid with our weekend store dude Troy Harradine, so keep an eye out for that to drop next week. Mikey is the man!

This video is four days old & has had close to 45k worth of views, which means you've probably already watched it. Heck, we watched this 4 days ago & couldn't believe it. Josh Stead takes one of the heaviest crashes ever like a man. RIP Dane Searls.

I do not know how we missed this video, but no matter, this one will age like a fine wine. Tom Arkus & the boys hold it down! Chris Doyle has serious clips in this one too. Filmed by the dudes at Compression.

The official video from Cam White's Hillside jam. This one is 7 minutes long & is worth the watch. It crams in the action, but that's how the Cam's jam is - crammed full of action. Not only does this video capture the hectic feel of how Cam's jam really is, but you get a better view of the top of the line, the wild crashes & the lesser known riders get a few clips in there as well.

We've got absolutely no idea who these dudes are, but they look like they have a scene going on in whereevertheyare W.A. Keep up the sick work dudes & keep building.

We don't normally do a lot of posting of random videos, but these two are watch the watch. Nikki Croft annihilating the streets & repping Back Bone hard through the whole video on the first one. The second one is of Marnold, who doesn't ride for us either, but destroys it in this. Both videos are brutal in the best of ways.

Keep an eye out for the fastest person on our team, Caroline Buchanan, to be all over your television soon. She just did an ad for national sign-on day for BMX racing. When was the last time you saw an ad promoting straight up BMX on TV? Let alone some dude wearing a vintage S&M jersey hooking up riders with snags?

Cam White's Hillside jam for 2012 is all said & done. It was another crazy year that is for certain, in no particular order here are some of our highlights:

- Chris Harti got himself the 'Best Style' award. No mean feat considering it's rider judged. He is a contender for it every year but brought it home this year. Well deserved & awesome.

- Ryan Lloyd's 360's were unbelievable. In the best trick contest he did a 360 one foot seatgrab table to lookback, which was the first time I've ever seen that, real life or video. It was incredible.

- Hucker double flipped the big dog jump, no dramas, first attempt.

- Watching dudes like Phil Mitchell, Gas Gas & Chris Kerr go through every time & walk back up psyched.

- TJ Ellis flip whipped the 40ft long jump & then went into a flip tuck no hander to tailwhip on the last set. This & everything else got him King of the Hill.

Check out the photos & video below & get ready for next year!

 Chris Harti was stoked!

One of the many reasons why Chris got best style. Way, way up there! 

Chris Kerr from Young puts time in digging jumps & in return reaps the rewards by cruising the biggest jumps he's ever hit.

It's a little hard to tell, but that is actually Chris' blood. Chris says it's how he knows he did a good turndown, when his shin is bleeding.

The winners podium; Chris Harti, Jaie Toohey & TJ Ellis.



Nethaniel Rochester made this dope video of the jam, click play & watch the madness.

Raine Turnbull & the crew have been real busy building out at Raine's place lately. The place is legit. Remember that hard work pays off in the end - Raine & the crew didn't sit around wishing for someone else to build these jumps, they made it happen themselves. Pick up a shovel & build your own scene!

Make sure you make it out to Cam's jam this saturday, like we mentioned earlier this week we had something special to commemorate Dane Searls, his love for dirt & his amazing achievements in life. So we'll have these tees for sale where all the profits go to the Snowy Hydro SouthCare rescue helicopter (the organization Cam White chose for the jam proceeds to go to). There's only going to be 100 available at the jam. So be on it. Dane was & still is the king of the hill!

Yesterday we posted the Sunday bikes trail trip video, today we got an e-mail from our bros at POWS BMX with a link to a dope video they made from their 2011 clips. It's rad as all get out, press play on that one. We also got an e-mail from Tom Arkus from Vinyl who made a dope video of Mark Potoczny - Hazelwood has got the lines!

Click play on both these & get an eyeful of trails.
