What the spectators got to see last saturday was BMX somewhere between genius and madness. The Reithalle in Ulm/Germany was filled up to the last place and offered a perfect playground for tricks that will long be remembered. The 68 riders from Germany, the UK, Austria, Hungary and Switzerland were definitely pushing their own limits doing tricks – and sometimes went a little bit too far. There were some scary moments and unfortunately the paramedics had to come into action but all riders stayed strong and were back at the venue to watch the finals after a short visit to the hospital.
The heat was already on during the five min long amateur jam sessions where the riders fought for every point. In the end it was
Jan Mihaly who came first, followed by
Jaron Johnson and
Marius Kloppe. Besides tons of stuff by Monster Energy, Pro-tec, the Fiat Freestyle Team, Felt Bikes and the Schickeria BMX Shop he also won the wildcard for the Telekom Extreme Playgrounds for the second time this year.
