There’s some new additions to the Brisbane scene, Nathan Smith and Renato Rancso (AKA the Freezer Boys).

The boys moved here just before the last King of BNE Jam and have been out in the streets ever since, fully indoctrinated, getting pressured into double-pegging some bush rails.

Nathan is always geeking, 150 run-ups, making sure the spot doesn’t move.

Renato and I worked on a solo video for the last few months, going out every weekend to film and some week nights, lighting up spots.

We surprised him by making it a welcome to LUXBMX video with the premiere in the shop. Beers and a rail jam were had, videos were played. It was a fire night. Respect.

Welcome to the Brisbane scene, Renato Rancso and Nathan Smith. The printed version is on pages 32 to 33 of Issue 01.
