Jam time baby!

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

Regional jams and comps are always a blast - Country dudes always seem to really go out on a limb to have a good time so if you are about the place in Kempsey in Northern NSW on the 17th of April check out the Jam that Brodie Butterfield is putting on , There is now a banging pro purse as well so if hucking big stunts is your gig get on down and you might walk away with some cash for your trouble!

We have also given a stack of FBM product to the Thistownsucks crew to help with there Trafalgar Jam on the 17th as well. As Rubers would say -get amongst it! Now playing Entombed- To ride,shoot straight and speak the truth. Anyone got any takers on better death rock than this album from Entombed? Please let me know!

Broken Noses and being lifers...

We are very proud to be associated with theĀ  FBM Bike Company for so many reasons, BMX has exploded in popularity over the last few years again and there is so many BMX companies making products its hard to keep up. FBM has always prided themselves on making a small but functional range of products that cater to the needs of BMX riders from all walks of life. They made 8 pound frames(Angel of Death) in a time when frames were breaking left right and centre. They were making functional heavy duty sprockets when fat chains were the norm and riders were content to wear a hole in the frame from a motorbike chain rather than break the chain doing a sprocket disaster on a rail. They have sponsored some of the biggest names in theĀ  sport like Aaron Ross , Cameron Wood and Tony Cardona and then lost the same riders to companies that had bigger payrolls. They have had there entire warehouse burnt to the ground and had to start again from scratch. They have had made video tapes( yes as in before dvds) that changed riders minds about there lives and BMX long before youtube beemed the latest tricks all around the world overnight. To put it bluntly FBM has changed the face of BMX forever, There constant love for BMX, travel and the good and bad times that come with it resonate with riders the whole world over. From the early days of AOD and Old Boy frames and Eyehategod songs in there vids to Modern Day Trail frames like the Steadfast and one of the most dialed looking complete bike ranges you are likely to see. FBM is in constant progression forward. Stowaway is proud to sponsor Peter Koh and Kie Ashworth with FBM in Australia and is proud to co sponsor Pat Oneil through Helensvale BMX on the Gold Coast. Kelvin Pentland through Backbone in Canberra and Lou Reeves through Anchor BMX in Melbourne.

FBM Pro and all round bad ass . Kie Ashworth sizey gap to icepick in Albany , New York. Kie was present on the FBM Wizards of Oz tour back in summer this year. You can peep his riding on the Wizards DVD that is out now all over the country. FBM is one company who is not letting the idea of having fun on your BMX fade. If you want to know what we got up to on that tour that has been all over the web of late do your self a favour and pick up this nice price double DVD from your local BMX shop today!

Wizards of Oz mania.......mang.
