Game of B.I.K.E... West OZ style!

Andrew McDermott vs. Shaun Jarvis

Freestyle Now! - new website launched!

Shaun Jarvis, head honcho behind the Freestyle Now! crew over in Western Australia have launched their all new website. Check it out by clicking here.

West Oz... where the action is

Shaun Jarvis & the Freestyle Now crew over in West Oz have been keeping very active of late. They had a demo go down at Duncraig High School with other Perth ripper Andrew McDermott keeping the flatstyles alive.

It was not a normal Freestyle Now demo as only Andrew was riding along with some of the students from the school ripping it up on the ramps. My freecoaster hub on my new bike is not working so and I'm now waiting on some replacement parts. Hope to have them before the weekend to get some good riding in... - Shaun Jarvis

And in other news from Shaun...
I've been doing a bit of my old job this past week as well: painting a friends house and have enlisted the help of Russ to help out. Russ aint got a job at the moment so if I can help him out with some cash I will. If any one wants to give Russ a job he can not only paint a house but can build web site, awesome artwork and graphic design work.

And with the Colony Underground finals in Brisbane on July 4 - Shaun will be busy getting the trophies done.... check below for the previous version - sick!

What's happening in Western Australia?

Freestyle Now kingpin, Shaun Jarvis has been a busy boy over in his part of the country. Along with supporting the BMX scene by way of coaching clinics, running jams & contests he also is getting back into hardcore riding after his elbow injury that will see him having advanced cell treatment applied next week for the finishing touch.

He's also going to be riding a brand new Colony Bloody Oath frame in 19.8" shortly.


Andrew (Buff) McDermott has been riding on a mission recently, but unfortunately his arms have been paying the price so he's having a short break. Word on the street is he's going to be competing in the advanced class for the final of the Colony DownUnderground Series happening in Brisbane on July 4 & possibly brakeless?? Lookout...

Regular Friday sessions are also going down at Concert Hall in Perth with the usual crew including Perth ripper Mike Brandt.
