Hey guys, I’m going to start this thread for all you who showed up to the event at Elsinore today. How’d it go for you tell us your story! One thing I might ask what did you guys think of the evolution freestyle ramps?

Well my day went like this….
Got there way the hell early because I was vending with Evolution Freestyle Ramps. Set up started off the day by hitting the ramps. The ramps were pretty much open all day, it was a blast. I will post pictures of me hitting them and some other people as well. Funny thing is I’m more of a racer and yes I know I work for Evolution FREESTYLE Ramps, but I now feel on a 50 im going to step up more on my freestyle, anyway today was my first day to ever hit a ramp on a 50. Let me tell you this it was sick! I was hitting the ramp in the center out of the three ramps there which was set back probably 20 + feet.

As for my racing, blah this is when it gets bad. Well as I said before I was doing a lot of freestyle before the race, well I got on the gate, got a horrible start (my own fault). I was hitting up the track which I got very very little practice on and still did not even know it, and I was wondering why I was running so slow? I know im not this slow I told myself turns out my front tire was loose as hell, then I just dealt with it and kept motoing. I ended up hitting a fairly large jump and when I taped my brake in the air it went fully down (spring came off!) and dug into the ground which sent me and my bike flying! I ended up bending my rear brake to my back tire and somehow bent the little bar stop on the bottom of my frame (thing that stops your bars from fully spinning, sorry I don’t know the proper name) So I DNFed that moto and could race the next! I still had lots of fun and am looking forward to the next event as well as some changes.

Plus I need a new rim and spokes! Well that’s it from me but soon to come pictures and maybe soon some video!

by the way, i was the stalker with an icechest wearing a black n silver hat n shades. and i never put down the camera (until no1 was jumping anymore, i couldn't get it out fast enough to get a shot of the flip, i wan't a pic so bad, it would have been a perfect shot of the goped flying and him dropping.)

btw, did you see the parachuter land at the starting gate? hahaha

The guy that won it. He rides for Warpt. He's been riding 50's for 2 months, and BMX for ten years.

Carey hart 1st did the flip at GG. he wrecked but did the biggest trick! he got last. yesterday, travis hart did the biggest trick, wrecked, and won!

whats up with that?

oh and the sano boys werent at their fullest, im not gonna say what they were gonna pull but they were saving it for their last run that they didnt get to do.

F.A.B.
April 27th, 2003, 03:16 PM
He went bigger off the back, so it got him up there. What can you say, he stuck that no footed back clean. That won it for him. If I was one of the Sano guys, I'd ride to them and tell them, I AIN'T F'N DONE!!....thats all they needed to do, not sit there.

all I can say is that freestyle contest was a joke, nothing was orginised and the judges were a joke! One guy knew what he was talking about! Next month should be a lot better.

Its all good though i had fun there.

The fast 50's guy was good but the Sano guys didnt get to bust the last run, things were really mixed up...oh well again...Next event!

I have nothing to do with the money flowin around with any video, or any company....so if anyone feels that someones backstabing you, you're wrong. I did this on my own, my apologies to anyone that felt that I was taking it too serious and tryin to shut someone down, I was just talking ****. Sano guys.....well my views stick with me from now on. You shouldn't let some comments from one person stop you from progressing in anything (just in case).

To sum it up....this is compition talk, you guys should already be used to it, people will diss your riding and people will be down with it...sorry I'm apart of your opposition on some views but thats just me and me only talking. You wanna threatin me, or anyone, then you're wasting your time over a couple views on some things.
