Braaap. A real treat today, some more pictures from the Stephen Murray trails jam at Alianos. Was a little while ago now but I have been working full time. I have finished there now, so no more lunches down the pub before an afternoon of work. In Bath next week

Toboggan train

Nose dived 360.

Nil hander! No handers seem to be pretty in fashion at the moment which is a pretty good thing if you ask me. I think people will start doing more supermans soon too. I used to do them when I was younger and slam super hard but it was worth it

turndown by someone with Timmy in foreground

More no handers maybe by Lima.

1 foot table are the bomb.

I am doing a weeks work experience at Future publishing taking some photos and seeing what goes on in a big studio. Who know might learn how to take good photos. Then back to uni next weekend for my final year… No idea what I am going to do after that. Hopefully take some photos and make websites but time will tell.

Big no-foot can by Crazy dave. Good vibes.

Maybe going to Oxford tonight to play pub golf? Who knows. Digital BMX is usually worth checking as is Derlelict BMX.

I just wrote a really good update and managed to close the window and lost it… Stoked on that! Anyhow I will do another one the same because I am nice like that.

On Sunday last weekend went to the Alianos jam to help make Stephen Murray walk again and what not. Were soooooo many people there. Fair play to all the guys who had shaped up Alianos, nuff work had been done since I was last there. Everything looked super dialled in.

Max Wood flow yo.

Max is too wild. He whipped the last in the big line at Chertsey the next day. Jump is about 7ft tall and about 22ft long. Did it twice. Media of that soon I guess then. He also did a couple of 360 whips at Alianos but I can’t really remember. Any way yeaaaah Max.

Un-known Old school no-hander. I am useless at remembering who people are. Sorry about that. Leave names in the comments if you know them. Maybe win a prize?

One of the Fortes (I think) Ross from Epsom (cheers Lima) Overclicked turndown

Unknown Flowing through bottom half of trails, probably Clark or Kent.

Unknown Will ‘Herminator’ (cheers Louis) 360 mid set. Redbull sorted the event out pretty good. Had all sorts of fancy sound systems and a DJ who played gangster rap in the true trails style… There were a bunch of hot girls milling about, dunno if they were to do with Redbull or just cause the Alianos are so P-I-M-P.

Un-known 360 last set.

I had written more before, but I managed to lose it all so sorry about that. Remember to save stuff I guess is the moral there. I have loads more photos than this from the Jam and also from the road trip. They might be up on here soon. Louis wants to do an article or something so maybe go somewhere better, but we shall see.

It’s all about DJ reckless from Nothern Line records. Click here to download a podcast of it. Basslineeeeeeeeeee

The Jam was pretty successful I reckon. Stay strong Murray. This update took a week to do because I have just started a new job phoning people up and getting information out of them. Also doing work experience at a publishing company in a few weeks taking photos of rockstars and cars (maybe). Then back to Cardiff for my final year of University on the 24th of September or so. Going to be amazing, can’t wait.

So here are some more picture from Alianos dirt jumps! Bit of a Max Wood show again, but can’t complain really. That boy is dialed. Didn’t get a good photo of it but he pulled a couple of clean 360 whips too.

Kettering pete takes some good photos, go see fadeawayfast for his photos

1 hander air on the same quater

Louis table

Lima getting silly air

Aiden stacked pretty bad all day, but impressed everyone with his hill billy antixs and failure to feel any pain. Chaz and Aiden enjoy one of max’s airs.

Just aiden

Will with a turndown air, shoud have got flashed out earlier but was too slack sorry…

Team streching class led by Louis

Timmy is one of the funniest dudes you will ever meet and can also shred good when not taking a dump in public… Wallride to turndown

The Malvern hills I think, as the sunset on the end of day two at Alianos.

After this we all headed to Bristol. Some to Wills uni block, some to Aiden’s sister’s house.

Went out to the Thekla Social floating boat club which was a treat. Best moments of the night included Will getting chucked out for drinking his own piss, general havoc around bristol ensued which probably shouldn’t be written about.

Next morning started with giving Timmy 3 times the maximum dosage of extra strength laxatives at 9am, having been told they were hangover cure tablets. Too funny watching him eat them.

Had a good day riding in Bristol the next day despite most people being pretty haggered, update on that soon.
Aversion roadtrip day two part 1 is here if you haven’t already read it.

Day two two started waking up on Lima’s floor with Aidan and Chaz. Felt pretty rough, but set off in the old car for the legendry Alianos trails. Lima air out the end quater.

Lima and people knew Jay and he was a hero for letting us all ride his jumps. Cheers! The trails were pretty tech, lots of rollers and stuff. Took people a little while to get used to. Max got the hang of things and was blasting out stuff like this no-foot can all day long…

Table boost by Max Wood.

And just a boost at height…

Pipe x-up midset

Lima flow and pete’s flash

Max tailwhip midset…

Same thing, differnt angle.

Will Herman with an old-skool. I think he also opposite twisted this jump if I remember right.

Max 360

This was so rad to see, twist table pulled so good.

No-foot can

Aversion Louis with a dialled turndown!

Break time on a shady, but fun spine. Part two of day two soon!

Just read about Stephen Murray’s mishap which has pretty much left him paralysed… Puts into perspective not being able to ride for six months for me. Here’s a video of Mr. Murray riding day before accident, then go read this and donate some money, think we can all relate to how bad this must be. Fingers crossed he gets better.
