- Many parts of the St-Martin video are available on the following link. Remember that the video is only available online, for free. We don't not make money on it and we do not create pollution on it, it is only virtual.  Video link: ici

We've got a new poll up but before we get into it we will give you the results of the most recent FATBMX poll:

-You only have your small budget available but you want to do so much more. It would help if everything would be less expensive but if you could choose one out of the following list, what would it be?

- Dean Evans joins Superstar throught the UK team. It means that in a few month Superstar will be also famous in Glasgow, Scotland.

- The Superstar UK team is now managed by Guy Terry. He's the perfect link with the growing UK team and Mark and Aaron from Padded Cell, Superstar UK distributor.

- Károly Sieger, pro rider from Hungary joins the Supertar team, thanks to the help of Attila at Harlee/GorbX, Superstar distributor over there. Note that Hungarian riders are really active and skilled. Sure you'll hear more of these riders in a near future.

Terry Adams is a busy cat. Traveling to contests gets him around and he isn't shy of a camera either. He is the only flatlander to get two covers on American magazines in 2006. When it comes to filming, Terry knows how to get in the picture as well. After doing clips for Fuel, Disney and an ABC show, Terry did a strange solo project where he was loving his bike. Add to this the Incubus music video starring Adams where he is setting priorities straight by ditching the girl over a photoshoot.

Last summer we did a road trip and made a video out of it. We had a good crew together with Rolf, Colin, Vladdie, Michael and Arnaut and filled up two cars and hit Germany for 7 days. The first two days we went to the Duesseldorf University. That place is amazing, Uni Puni for sure. The next 4 days we spent in Cologne. Slept under a bridge and then managed to work something out with the Jugendpark so we could sleep where the BMX Masters Dirt jumps were. That contest finished a week before we showed up. We rode a bunch of street in Cologne. Thanks to the locals for showing us around.

On 27-28 January an AM Mini Ramp Contest and for the Pros a best Flow in the Mini will take place at Skater's Palace in Muenster, Germany. There will also be a Bunny Hop and a Best Rail Contest. After the jam there's a great Party in the Club next to the Skatehall, called Vainstream.
