TRIPLE SIX BROKEN INTO AGAIN Monday, February 8, 2010 Ok.. so this is shit news but Triple Six distribution was broken into for the third time this weekend.
It has become very obvious that the person doing this is either a rider or has very good knowledge of BMX. The reason I say this is because the person particularly went through all the brands Triple Six distributes to steel only Fly Bikes products. Which means they must really like Fly!.. and knew exactly what they where looking for! Here is a list of what was taken on the last break in: Fly Circulo sprockets, Black, White, Purple, Fly Montana brakeless frame Dark Grey Fly Lago frame Black Fly Agua forks Black and White Fly Potencia f/load and Alta t/load stems Black Fly Pantera bars, Black and Red Fly brake lever All the frames and forks feature the invest cast dropouts which should make them stand out. So if you see anyone rolling around town on a new, tricked out BMX with allot of Fly parts, including the new lever and frame/fork with invest cast drop outs which not allot of riders in NZ would have yet, its a good chance they are the offender! They shouldn't be hard to spot! Triple Six are going to offer a reward for any info leading to the arrest of the people and recovery of the goods. Please don't ask in the comments what the reward is but it will definitely be worth it. Lets get them! VICTORIA SKATEPARK CONCEPT DESIGN This is the Victoria Skatepark concept design. From what I have heard it looks like it will not be going into construction for up to 3 years, not until the motorway tunnel project is completed.
As everyone is well aware the current park will be going very soon. To fill the gap between when the original VIC park is gone and the new one goes into construction there will be a temporary facility created. Most likely on the old bowling green with a few ledges and wedges. In other park related news.. below is the finalized design for the Barry Curtis Park in Botany. Looks awesome!.. this park is due to go into construction in March.. and I have been told it must be completed by the end of the financial year, which is very soon! Good news!

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT - FLY LEVER Friday, February 5, 2010 I thought I would do a product highlight on the new Fly Bikes BMX lever.. mostly because I went out today and purchased one for myself and I was super impressed with it. In my opinion this is one of the best levers on the market, it's the perfect shape, the bend in the lever is just right. It's also very solid and looks like it would be super strong. The lever is nice and smooth with no sharp edges to cut your fingers on. Fly is well known for making really good quality parts and this lever is no different. Another dialed part from Fly. www.flybikesbmx.com BMX.CO.NZ STREET RIDE The guys from BMX.co.nz have organized a street ride for this Sunday coming. Its going to be a pretty casual event, an opportunity to get out a ride a bunch of Auckland's best street spots with a good crew of riders.
The ride starts at 1pm, meet at the brick banks across the road from Food Town on Quay St.  NEW LYNN UP GRADE Auckland's oldest bowl at the age of 30+ just got a complete make over from some very dedicated and passionate skaters who wanted to preserve the history of the park. New Lynn is pretty well known around NZ and internationally, especially for its super tight full pipe and snake run. Now the park has been finished, 30 years later, it has just become a whole lot more fun to ride. We went to check it out last night and had a ride with some of the local shredders. Its definitely worth checking out if you want to ride something unusual and different.

Also spotted a write up about that jam over at the Haro BMX webpage from Nasty.. worth a look.       Thanks Hemi! RIDE BMX - PAUL LANGLANDS WALL PAPER Tuesday, February 2, 2010BOX OF TRIX  Box Of Trix is a BMX Comp going to be held at Rampage Skatepark on Sunday 21st Feb. Check the flyer for full details. It looks like it is going to be a pretty fun event, elimination events are always a good time, especially when there is a cash prize. The event will run the day after the PMP Trail Jam. So if you are considering making the trip from out side of Auckland you now have two reasons to come.. its going to make for a killer weekend of BMX.
