ODI visit

We headed over to ODI today which is actually only 15 minutes from Stephen’s house in ‘Riverside. The guys down there always make us feel welcome and gave Stephen the full tour so we could look at different grips and ideas for the Stay Strong single ply grip which they want to get working on asap.

ODI has been the market leader forever in BMX grips and makes grips for some of the best bike brands out there which is why it’s great to be working with them on this whole project. Thanks to the SS followers  the clamp on grips which came out in December have been a great success and we are greatful to Colby and ODI for their support and now wanting to take this further with a core  grip planned for release sometime in Summer 2010.

Murray’s House

We got to spend a good afternoon in the backyard today.. The kids came straight in from school and asked if the could get the bikes out!  Stephen made Seth put a little shovel time in before he hit the jumps up, and Seth sure kn ows how to push the shovel and pack the jumps in! 7 years old and fixing up the jumps before riding…Stephen is definately teaching him trail etiquette for when he grows up!

It is  pretty RAD to see a fearless young kid pumping and flowing through sets of doubles and hitting hips!  He even threw in a footplant over the dirt volcano for us!( Videos coming soon so check back!)  The kids definately have a fun set up back here and switching between BMX and the 90Cc MX bike and even Mason rips around the yard on his quad bike fully pinned!! You have to see it to believe it! Dew Tour athletes in the making I’m telling you..!!

John Jennings is Stephen’s good friend and his full time live in carer. He helps the family 24 / 7 but still got to enjoy a little session with the kids before sunset!

Pheonix Update

nasty pheonixGood weekend of race action over in Pheonix.. The Vans team were on the road and stopped by for the race. Ryan Guettler, Alistair Whitton, Cory Nastazio, Scotty Cranmer and Co all got their race on. Bas Keep was in the house hanging out with them aswell. They even had a dirt jumper one lap no crap final which ran before the 1st Pro final that got all the hype. Nastazio took the big win and put in a decent lap for the fans!
