This is a refreshing video!

Our client Sebastian is a man of patience!  2 years ago we ran a competition for Aaron Larocque’s What's Next and had a live release with industry friends in Vegas where we announced winners of custom one off pedals. 

But poor Sebastian never got his, they were stolen twice in delivery to him. Never ending mishaps but he is finally getting a set of JLO pedals with 24 karat pins. High five to speedy delivery!

If I knew he was this good at film making I would have got them sooner and maybe made this film. Next time I’ll shoot for a 1 year delivery date!

 

Enjoy this flic from Sebastian!

And again for the 54th time… Aaron’s What’s Next film sponsored by Straitline with Straitline riders Hepburn and Casey Groves.

Pumptrack Pumping

Alan is Straitline Components Australian Factory rider and to me Steve Erwin has stained the nations image so much that I picture all Aussies as furry critters.

And our little Koala has been digging again… let’s watch as the male presents…! 

 

“I've Spent the last week building and carving in a little pumptrack close to my house. It's running better then i could have hoped with lots of line choices going both ways. Mostly stoked on how fast it can run for how tight some of the rollers are. I suggest to everyone to build a pumptrack if they don't have one, there good fun and can get you somewhat fit. Great for learning bike control and cornering.”

And just because I am addicted to this opening clip with Alan and Jarrett plus it was filmed in our backyard in Victoria, lets watch it again!

New Aussy Distributor for Straitline!!!

It is no lie we like Australia and the people and it has been roughly 8 months since we had representation down under but we are stoked to announce a partnership with Groupe Sportif LTD!!

So stoked to have some home turf again in Australia!

Just as we penned the deal factory rider Alan Hepburn sent us a update!

 

Tasmania roadtrip 

 Two weeks ago I got on a plane and headed for Tasmania to participate in a couple contests. The first contest was held in a little town called Launceston. It was held on a locals farm with the course being short but sweet. It consisted of a small set up drop to right hand berm/speed jump/ normal jump/ big right hand berm and then into the ramp to dirt trick jump. There was an open class but i wasn't really aloud to compete because the prizes were bike products that i couldn't really use anyway. So that was a bummer but i did get to ride a fair bit and ended up judging the contest. I woke up the next morning with a big picture in the local newspaper tho so that was cool.

The second jam was at the Downhill nationals in Hobart. After a little tweaking with the shovel when we arrived the jumps felt alright, pretty small but good enough to pull out some tricks.

here's a real short edit of me from that jam.

It's good to see a couple of contest popping up here in Australia, there really is never any contest here through out the year. How ever there is a real decent one coming up on January 16-17th during the national DH event here in my home town. Its sponsored by Barspin Imports (dealer of Banshee) which is great, this contest will be great for the Australian scene. Keep in touch for a big right up on that event.

I'd also like to thank my sponsors for helping out too.
