The Jam will be run like this: Both Pro and Am classes will be help in true jam style; 2-3 riders in a group judged by all the riders present on the day. There will be a bunny hop and long jump attempt too which should be a lot of fun.
The Park setup will be like this: Beach park in all its graceful glory and throw in 80+ pallets mostly supplied by a Durban shipping company and some 'acquired' from Hillcrest and surrounding areas. A crashed car has also been donated for the day, so bring a balaclava and baseball bat if you’re into that kind of thing.
3 building teams from around the country will be constructing a wide variety of banks, launches, wall rides out of the 80 or so pallets and a pile of scrap wood and metal to match. Building is happening all day Friday to be ready for the contest on Sunday. If you're keen to help out with construction be there Friday early! Each team is paid 500bucks towards a keg for the Saturday nights festivities.
Props videos will be shown on Saturday night. Prizes and support will be provided by Props Visual, Primo Products and BMX Direct.
