The Fourth Annual Blake Butterfield Memorial Jam

Image
Once again, I am organising a jam in memory of my younger brother, going down at the Kempsey skatepark on January 27th. Each year, we have raised money for the Westmead Childrens hospital, and this is no different. We wish to add onto the $2000 we've already raised over the years. Last year's was the most fun I've ever had on my bike, and hopefully this year will be another repeat. Supported by Lux, Hell on Wheels, Back Bone, Stowaway, Triple Six, Dishonour, Colony, Division and Focalpoint . Get on down if you're up for an Australia Day long weekend trip and an awesome day of riding!

Merry Christmas from Stowaway

To ring in the silly season, our good friends at Stowaway Distribution put together this really awesome video filmed during what looks to be a rad session at Chris & Will Kerr's trails during their trips for the D.A.N.E Jam . Featuring The Kerr Brothers , Jamie Moore and Ryan Lloyd , as well as two of my favourite Englishmen Toby Forte and Chaz Mann . These dudes have style for miles, collaborated with these trails, it's simply amazing.

Octoberfest Trail Jam

This is Stowaway's video from their Trails Jam from mid-October. These dudes have public, council approved jumps, which looks to be paying off, as so many of these guys are so good.

United Voyage Ryan Lloyd Edition Promo

In the wake of Ryan Lloyd's recent Stowaway epic, and receiving a signature colourway of the United Voyage frame, we have this awesome video promoting the latter. Ryan rips around some better known Canberran parks, as well as doing some wild shit on one nasty-looking quarter pipe. Dude has way too much style.

Octoberfest Trail Jam

On October 14th , there will be a rad jam happening down at the Adelaide City Trails . The general concept behind the jam is to get more people stoked on riding jumps, which I think is an awesome idea. The whole day will be entirely non-competitive, with fun being the main focus. Sounds like it's gonna be a real awesome day!

Welcome to Ride On/United- Jack Birtles

Stowaway and Ride On just announced their latest recruit; in Brisbane video wizard and bike killer Jack Birtles . Congratulations dude! Look forward to see what kinda goodness comes from this.

Bar Beach Bowl Bash

Image
This looks like it's gonna be awesome! The dudes at Newcastle BMX are throwing a jam at the Bar Beach Golden Bowl next Sunday, the 19th. This bowl is an absolute monster, so it should be real good to see what gets thrown down. There are prizes for best style, the Deft Family Big Air and the S&M Rail Jam. On top of that, this event is for a great cause; CanTeen , which is a charity organisation run to help teenagers living with cancer. For more information, check the flyer below.

Winter Warmer Bicycle Stuntfest

Yesterday was the Winter Warmer Bicycle Stuntfest at Port Macquarie. There ended up being a pretty decent turnout, with everyone shredding and getting stoked on bikes. Features Jon Mackellar, Jack Gibson, Clint Lankester, Jeremy Lankester, Ben Richardson, John Condie, Kristopher Humphries, Mitch Wilke and Linden Evans . The day wouldn't have been possible without our generous supporters in Back Bone BMX, Dishonour Brand, Hell on Wheels, Triplesix Distribution, Stowaway Distribution and Graham Seers Cyclery .

Ryan Lloyd Winter 2012

Wow. Ryan Lloyd's much anticipated video just dropped, and it is some next level shit. Rumours had been flying for a while about it, but this goes above and beyond my expectations. Two and a half minutes of bangers, no filler, all with a huge smile on his face. Nothing I say will do it justice, but Stowaway have pretty much composed a masterpiece.

Sam Waters X Animal

Sam Waters fucking kills it in this new edit for Animal / Stowaway put together by Ben McPherson . The last few clips are legit!

Here's the flyer for a jam I've organised, going down on July 1st at the Port Macquarie skatepark. There'll be rail and bowl contests, as well as giveaways and other impromptu events on the day. It should be rad! Of course, it wouldn't be possible without the support of Back Bone BMX , Stowaway Distribution , Triple Six Distribution , Hell on Wheels , Dishonour and Graham Seers Cyclery .

After a considerable time with the old format, Stowaway have freshened up their blog. It looks like they've gone with the 'less is more' approach, which I dig.

Re-Up: Blake Butterfield Memorial Jam.

Image
It's just over two weeks away now, and everything is coming together nicely. Expecting a nice turnout of good dudes, gonna be a rad day! Hope to see you there! Remember, it's a charity day to raise money for the Westmead Children's Hospital in Sydney.

Pete Koh 2011

This video made my day. Pete Koh , an FBM/Stowaway team member, is something of an enigma around here. Occasionally I'll roll up to the skatepark, and he'll be there, stopping for a ride on his way up the river for a camping trip. He's always a pleasure to watch ride, and this edit is no different, cruising Newcastle's Bar Beach bowl before work. I'm stoked Video by Josh Stephenson

Jesse Bull/Federal

Wow. So much crazy tech stuff in this. Ice to 180s have always been one of my favourite rail tricks to see. Jesse Bull from StowMedia on Vimeo .

Jack O'reilly Federal Video

Really psyched on this; Jack O'reilly doing it for Federal/Stowaway . Tons of dope lines in this! Props to Brendan Boeck for the edit, too! Jack O'Reilly Federal Edit from Brendan Boeck on Vimeo .

Stowaway 6 Questions: Xave Koen

Image
Xave Koen has been killing it forever, but is something of an unknown quantity. Always surprises me every time I see him ride. Head on over to Stowaway , where he has a little interview where you can find out a little more about him. See that here .

Ryan Lloyd/Stowaway Distro

Image
Ryan Lloyd is one of my favourite riders at the moment. Really feel his ability to do things both ways, and his riding has some old school chic about it. This edit is tight. Accompanying it, is the best goofy footed 360 table ever photographed. Ryan Lloyd United Edit from Stowmedia 2011 from StowMedia on Vimeo .

Josh K; United/Stowaway

Josh is so damn rad! Stupid good wallride steeze and a bunch of dope pegless technical manoeuvres. So psyched to go shred right now. Spotted on Stowaway
