In 2016 I met Chloe Palmer who was a keen photographer who was about to fly out to Australia for a year. So, realising this could be the only time I could get the time and scenery to film my BMX film in new and exciting places, I followed her out there.
We traveled the whole of Australia in a van we'd renovated trying to capture as much of the beautiful landscape and interesting BMX shots as possible.
In 2018 we returned to England and I got stuck in editing. However, once again work got in the way of being able to edit the film. Working on it piece by piece whenever I found a spare couple of hours and with re-writes and feedback sessions with some industry professional that I respect lead me to finally get to this point.
Two years to the day after arriving back in England I am releasing the final version of this epic journey. It was an incredible process and I have learnt so much by making this film and look forward to the next project!
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
