Sunday Summer Fun

The family and I Caught up with MC Mange and his family on Sunday, to hit up 3 local parks for a roll namely 17th Ave, ATK and Papamoa with a cool of at the beach afterwards. Took my camera along too, filmed some clips and put this edit together. Don't expect any incredible riding just a fun edit featuring a our families and a few local rippers. Enjoy

From the Archives

So haven't been shooting much lately so thought I'd post some more pic's from my archives, freshly scanned tonight from one of my photo albums, taken around 2000-2001 theres a couple from X-Air Hamilton in 2000 and a few of one of my old trails spots, 17th Ave Tauranga.

Steve Mc Cann, huge transfer from the quarter to flat-bank, this was huge and he throws in an unturndown for good measure. Photo by Warren Fryer.

Michael Perkins, another ripper from Australia, flip X on dirt. Pretty sure he did a quad barspin on park that year also. Photo by Warren Fryer.

These last pic's are of an old trail spot that Tim and Adam Shackleford, Leif Nicol and I built in Tauranga on 17th Ave, we used to ride that place every day, location was so good close to home, town etc, no trees though so that was a let down, still, gotta make do with what you got. By the time the council moved us we had 15 or so jumps with a roll-in built out of pallets. We also had Tim who was one of the most motivated diggers I've ever met, I think he might even give old mate Caleb a run for his money, anyway a few pic's of Tim and myself doing a few stunts. Photo's by Adam Shackleford.

Skullery

Local shredder Scott White sent me though a link to the SkulleryBMXNZ Youtube channel he's been working on, head over and check it out, loads of footage of the 17th Ave and Tauranga locals.

Heres a short edit of local Alan Murphy from the channel.



Looking good Scott, keep pumping out the edits.

17th Ave Comp

There,s a comp coming up soon, on the upgraded 17th Ave Skatepark. Take the word "upgraded" lightly, although it is an upgrade its just the same park but concrete now instead of dodgy ply.
Should be a good day though check out the flyer.
