Above: Jay whipping in the new 6 pack

It has begun! Along with Stonnington City Council, team XXIV have started work on Windsor Siding. Eric Frenchy was the mastermind of this brainchild; coming up with a masterful design which will feature 2 six packs, 1 big 4 pack and a set of 3 table tops.

This Friday gone (21st of April) we built one 6 pack and the big 4 pack. It was a solid days work from everyone who helped out: Eric, John, Cyril, Taz, Ryan, and last but not least Bruce from the Stonnington City Council doing an awesome job in the Bob Cat. We also have to thank the Stonnington Council for letting it all go ahead and especially Peter who is in charge of parks and gardens who met with us and lined up the us of the Bob Cat and the initial grading of the site.

The jumps themselves are looking fantastic, nice and wide with good distance and height on all. We wanted to make everything much more trickable and forgiving with the addition of the bigger 4 pack for those more adventerous who want to bust out the big moves with bigger air time.

Hopefully phase 2 should happen in the coming weeks and we will get the addition 6 pack and tabletops put in, maybe something else if we have the dirt available.

Make sure you read more in the article for all the photos and a video.

See you down there!

The New World Disorder series never ceases to entertain. Number 6 in the series is more action packed than any of its predecessors. It seems that Freeride Entertainment and resorted back to their roots, “Freeriding”. Whether that be hucking off cliffs, descending the mountains of South America, slope-styles, jump parks or urban riding. The main thing to be noted is that you will not find any racing at all in NWD 6. Which is a good thing, now that we have several film series out there focusing on DH & 4X racing there is no need to use it in a “freeride” film apart from a content filler.

Hey crew,

A mate of mine asked me the other day about creating a forum for the people who ride Windsor. So I set it up! It’s great to discuss news, general talk, hook up for rides and multimedia stuff to check out.
