Unit Donates To Legacy Australia

Tuesday 18 May 2010

Unit is proud to announce its donation of $7000 to Legacy Australia, collected through proceeds from sales of the Anzac Wallet.

More than 10,000 troops died to protect the freedom we enjoy today and Legacy is dedicated to caring for the families they left behind.

"Like many young Aussies we all had a grandfather who went to war, some returned - some did not," says Unit Founder Paul Everest.

"After speaking with lots of young people over the last few years we realised that the sacrifice previous generations had made, had been lost on the new generation."

"The saying 'Lest we forget' was apparent."

Unit's design team set about creating a tribute wallet that told the story of the Anzacs, with proceeds to be donated to Legacy.

"It was very rewarding to be able to hand over a cheque to Legacy this morning."

Tuesday 18 May 2010

Red Bull Dirt Pipe went off a couple of weeks ago, and Unit's own jaie Toohey took the win. It is definitely one of the most innovative and massive dirt courses in the world, so the contest made for some awesome photos and videos...

Check out al the pics and videos below...

FOCALPOINT PHOTO GALLERY - Cooper Brownlee put together this cool gallery of photos that were not used in the Focalpoint print mag.

CAM PIANTA'S RIDING + LIFESTYLE PICS - Cam Pianta was lucky enough to ride the contest, and in his spare time managed to snap a bunch of sweet ass riding and lifestyle pics. Cam is turning into a keen photographer, and thanks to his winnings from the Hillside Dirtjam now has a sweet camera setup. He also has a bit of a polaroid fetish, as you will see haha. Thanks for the pics Cam!
