O’Neal have got some awesome gear out this season… and an awesome line up of team riders.
To make some noise and launch the team the O’Neal crew invaded Foel Gasnach up in North Wales. They gave everyone the chance to try out the kit, snap some photos and see what the brand is all about.
Here’s 2009 NPS champ Tom Deacon’s repo from the day.
“As this was a 2010 launch and promo day, O’neal set up a stand with kit that anyone could just pick up, try on and go ride in. It was a great way for people to check on sizing, see what fits good and they could also check their new factory look when they got papp’d by the photographers when they went for a run.
We surprisingly had great weather and unusually for Wales it was sunny all day and the Foel tracks were running fast and grippy. Big shout to Wayne Appleby and his crew of diggers for keeping the tracks in top condition and opening the gates up so we could get tons of runs in all day. Everyone was loving it and having a good catch up after a cold winter.
Thanks to Col and Trig for a wicked day.”

awesome photos but i dont believe you about it being sunny all day, the photo with the umbrella kinda gives it away.
Probably a parasol init – like a sun brolly. Very classy.
Ah, thats actually just Eddys enormous hand disguised as a brolly, not an actual brolly!
