Open your eye's

One of the most incredible moments of BMX history, went down in Taupo this weekend.
Jed Mildon with a world first, Triple Backflip!!!
Congratulations Jed, all that hard work has paid off.......Legend

Amazing!!! he got it first go!!


And Jake Prebble, aka Gypsie throws down another world first (pretty sure, correct me if I'm wrong), the Gypsie-Bus...... Indian Frontflip. Not bad for his second ever attempt at a frontflip.


The set-up



This is for you Mark! Handplant on the Taupo spine at the jam the next day.


And once again Taupo comes though with another good weekend,

Times in Taupo...

So, I've been in Taupo for the last few days helping out Jed build some ramps for his comp on Saturday 28th of May (next weekend) in Spa Park called, "Unit T3 Mindtricks", with a park jam on Sunday. It is going to be incredible, and Taupo never fails for a good time, so come and check it out, bring your bike and some beers, you might even get to witness a world first or two. Either way it going to be....
Can't show you any pic's of the ramp, you have to see it for yourself



Yes, we needed a crane.


Few pic's from one of NZ's best parks....Taupo

Nipple's are just fun even if their made from concrete.

Pilgrim

Jed Mildon sent me though some info for the new Pilgrim Unit frames....They look pretty nice

"The new Pilgrim Unit Frames are here in NZ ready for sale! so far this white one I have been riding feels sick! half link shorter on the back end but the control feels good and tricks like flatys, kick outs, 360s and tailwhips are heaps easyer coz of the lower angles of the frame. it has a mellow head tube so kinda makes the frame feel as big as my last even though its half link shorter back end! So far the strength test is 100%! This is the perfect all round frame I have raw, white and black. 20.5 20.8 and 21..
"

Jed has a few more frames for sale $400 each which is a pretty good price, contact Jed for more info, jedmildon@hotmail.com
