Cologne/Berlin – 15.06.2006 After great success with the first rebeljam in Berlin in 2005 it was decided to continue the philosophic line with rebeljam. With true spirit and passion the second rebeljam as well will take place at the fantastic and outstanding facilities of Mellowpark in Berlin. In 2005 the goal was to achieve an event where the level of riding was high but the pressure from a normal competition was less. Of course, there has to be schedule to follow but it was important to follow it in a relaxed atmosphere without any hectic. Each participant should have the feeling to be at a great huge session with friends – and basicly this was exactly the way it turned out! Rebeljam is very proud to strengthen even more the already deep relationship with all partners. This is just another proof that a specific idea can only be formed with people and brands that know what´s happening and understand the core and spirit of the sport. Each partner has a great image in the sport and they are focusing 100% on rebeljam to make it yet again happen to be one of the best recognized international bmx competitions out there. From riders for riders that is!

So it was no surprise that all partners committed again to rebeljam and the idea behind it. In 2006 the worlds best athletes in Bmx freestyle will show up in Berlin to show their skillz and to have a blasting session with everyone. Riders like Ryan Guettler, Ben Hennon, Tobias Wicke, Ryan Nyquist, Sergio Layos, Morgan Wade, Taj Mihelich, Corey Martinez, Dave Osato, Josh Harrington, Cory Nastazio or Brian Kachinsky will witness the great vibes at Berlins Mellowpark and compete on the miniramp, trails or park to share the prize-money of 25.000,-€.

Also for the side events there will be a continuation of some ideas. At a chilling vernissage evening photographers in- and outside of bmx will express the huge value of bmx photography. Art is still very underrated in the sport so a platform like this is needed and more than welcome. Not to forget the sight-seeing tour arround Berlin where we want to bring some city culture to the riders who normally only see airports and hotels. A very welcomed service which ends up in smiling faces.
