Mike Groff took the title in the BMX park contest this weekend at the Free Flow Tour’s Jackson, N.J. stop, becoming a winner on the Tour’s 2008 season. Groff, 19, won the BMX park competition on Sunday, June 8. “Even though it was ridiculously hot, all of the kids put a lot of effort into the Free Flow Tour competition,” Katie Munn, apparel manager of the Incline Club, said following the weekend’s events.
“Everyone put their best foot forward despite the heat. The riding was really impressive, both from the locals and from everyone who came out. With the bands and the giveaways and the riding, the Free Flow Tour really had a positive vibe, and we’re excited to see how our riders compete in the finals.”

Groff earns automatic bids into the Free Flow Tour finals that will take place at the AST Dew Tour’s Toyota Challenge,
