Three days of BMX competition wrapped up at Woodward West in Tehachapi, CA, as Team Wallace, lead by Mongoose rider Ben Wallace won the first-ever Mongoose Jam, with overall wins in Dirt and Park.
The action began on Wednesday with the Amateur Audition, a jam format park contest open to all Woodward campers. Brad Thomas, Mike Mendoza, Todd Cagel, Shea Doran and Ed Percival had the skills to win a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to compete against the pros and receive a yearlong flow sponsorship with Mongoose.
The BMX-only event featured competition among five teams, each headed by one of Mongoose's pro riders Greg Illingworth, Steve McCann, Paul Ryan Ben Wallace, and Cam White. The Mongoose team captains each chose a group of four pro BMX athletes, and drafted one amateur rider from the Woodward campers Amateur Audition to compete in Park, Dirt and Street contests.
