Freestyle Now’s squad members Shaun Jarvis, Luke Tooze and Taj Hamilton headed to the outback town of Laverton for an unforgettable BMX journey, igniting the outback with an epic airbag jumping coaching session and thrilling demonstrations. The community engagement was phenomenal, with riders of all levels joining in on the excitement.  The heart of this adventure was the BMX coaching session on the Freestyle Now small airbag lander jump. The squad shared their expertise, guiding participants through the art of airbag jumping, helping some overcome their fear of jumping all while also delivering jaw-dropping demonstrations that left the Laverton community in awe. A big thank you to the Laverton Cycling Project and the Cycling Development Foundation as well as the Shire of Laverton for all their support.

Beyond the coaching sessions, the crew explored rad spots in Laverton and Kalgoorlie, discovering hidden gems that showcased the diverse BMX landscape of the outback. From street sessions to off-road exploration, every moment was an opportunity for radness. Shredding it up at the Leonora and Kalgoorlie skateparks added an extra layer of excitement to the journey. A highlight of the trip was the privilege of riding with local legend Corey Smithies, experiencing the super rad setup in his backyard. This not only elevated the riding experience but also strengthened the bonds within the BMX community.

Freestyle Now attended the Carine Senior High School for a full day of motivational presentations. The presentations focused on resilience, something all BMX riders will know. Achieving goals is challenging, you have to be focused. There are many hurdles and barriers that can slow you down from achieving your goals, be it with BMX tricks or just in life achievements. You need to know how to jump over the hurdles and push through the barriers. Throughout the course of the day Freestyle Now squad members Shaun Jarvis, Luke Tooze and Josh Garwood not only did some BMX stunt riding but also spoke of their personal barriers they had to overcome with injuries to keep on achieving their goal. Determination is what is required to achieve and each person has a different level of determination, but it’s their determination and they own it. Each person tackles achieving goals differently, and it’s how to go about pushing yourself to reach them goals that creates your resilience. All of these things BMX teaches you.
