THE GALLERY IS UP Wednesday, April 30, 2008 I finally got around to getting the gallery up. Basically Its just a collection of my favorite NZ riding photos, most of the photos you have probably seen before but ill upload more soon, click the gallery button above to check it out.
John Thompson and rider from Vancouver, Canada just finished his video titled 'its about time' , its Johns first video and would have to say its pretty rad with some amazing riding in it. As a bonus its got two New Zealand rider sections in it, Warren Gill and Dave Struthers, as well as various other NZ riders and spots scattered through the vid. Check it out here.......... FOCAL POINT 13 ONLINE Tuesday, April 29, 2008 Most of you have probably heard of Focal Point by now, Its a free bmx mag from our friends over in Australia. Its a really really good mag but only a handful ever make it to NZ, luckily for us Cooper from focal point has been making the extra effort to put the mag online. The latest issue is up now so check it out. Also Scotty from TripleSix in Aus is sending a bunch of the mag over to me in the next few weeks to give out... ill keep you posted when they turn up.
 NEW TWENTY TWENTY Monday, April 28, 2008 The new 2020 issue 28 has just come out in Australia and will be available in NZ very soon. This is the run down: "Issue 28 is a packed one. With a stack of free stickers tucked away inside the banging wall ride cover thanks to Troy Jackson. But beyond the adhesives, it's full of 100% riding. We follow the Tempered crew on their first team roadtrip, bring a pictorial coverage of the recent BMX Games, hit up Cam Whites second annual Hill side Jam, get rolling with the crew at Imax for the 3053 jam and get personal with Forgotten's newest star, Josh Mete. Of course theres a truckload more from around our rocking country, New Zealand and even Fiji" Definitely check this issue out as 2020 gets better and better every issue, I'm also hoping this issue has a bunch of NZ content0.
 If you head over to the Colony site there is some photos up there of Haimona's new ride...some sort of crazy Burger Fuel paint job going on, worth a look.
