Return To Hermtrails

December 30, 2022

The Hermtrails are dialed in!

It’s been around 8 years since we’ve seen a video from the Herm Trails (Also known as Hermitage Trails) down in Adelaide, Australia, but it looks like they’re back and real dialed in! Here’s a new video from some of the riding going down at Nathan Parker‘s backyard setup! Real solid riding on what looks like a super fun trails setup! Check it!

“One year back on deck, a whole new line of jumps, and a five metre roll-in.
It’s been a busy year back at the trails, but we’re certainly back for good.

Hermitage Trails Jam 2014

November 12, 2014

Can’t go wrong with a video from the Hermitage Trails down in Australia. Check out this video we spotted on Can You Dig It from the jam that went down the other day! Nathan Parker has a hell of a fun looking yard.

“For the second year in a row I went to Nathan Parker’s house for the post-halloween jam in Adelaide. Yet again it was awesome and this year had an all time turn out of riders from all over Australia. A new addition for this years jam was the huge halfpipe he has built in a unused barn behind his house.
A big thanks to Nathan for putting in the effort to keep the trails running and getting that halfpipe finished. It was heaps of fun and i’d love to be back again oneday.
Music is:
Fugazi – Exit Only.
The Nextmen – The Next Trend.”

August 20, 2013

We’ve been seeing a bunch of entries for the Primary Threads X Focalpoint Worldwide Video contest popping up the past few days and they’ve all been real solid. Here’s a fresh one that just surfaced featuring Nathan Parker getting down at his trails, the Hermitage Trails. Real good!

“Well heres mine and Nathan Parkers entry video for the primary threads X focal point BMX filming comp. unfortunately we didn’t get a lot of chances to film because of the weather. we had one good day and the next day was very grey and muggy but we worked with what we had and we reckon we pulled off a great Dirt video where our focus wasn’t about getting huge tricks thrown in but to just have a nice vibe and all round enjoyable video to watch. Feel free to give us feedback in riding, filming, editing. thanks heaps

Nathan Parker Scraps

June 12, 2013

Came across this one on Can You Dig It. Nathan Parker had a bunch of clips he was sitting on and decided it was time to piece something together. Take a look at him getting some sessions in at a few different trails spots and a cement park. Nothing but chill cruising in this and I’m all about that.
