Team Avent / Bombshell made a large presence last week in Phoenix. We had perfect weather for racing. The track was super fast with the first turn was always packed.

Saturday we woke up to another beautiful Phoenix day. The AA Pros followed suit with three in the mains. Donny Robinson was focused all weekend pulling out a third for the day. Jason Richardson rode his F1 forks to a 5th place. Tyler Brown staying consistent with the odd numbers took a 7th home for the day. Cassie Bushnell battled against a stacked Pro girls class, but had to settle for eighth place. In Pro Cruiser Donny Robinson extended his lead for the ABA title with a commanding first place. Randy Stumpfhauser took 3rd on his F1s. Jason Rogers was not far behind with 5th place in Pro Cruiser. Kyomi Waller was on top of things with a 5th place in Vet Pro on his F1's

Justin Holt out of North Carolina, USA is doing a jam upcoming at a local indoor park and wanted to let us know some details.  Justin's hopes are to raise enough money to build a street spine at the park.

 The jam is Saturday December 17th at the Creation Skatepark (www.creationskatepark) at 702 Cinema Court in Kernersville NC (which is between Winston-Salem and Greensboro) from 5pm-10pm.

It will be $5 to get in and you can ride as much as you want. There will be an informal high-air,  high bunnyhop and best trick contest  for prizes throughout the night. It will be a good time.

South African Fraser Byrne of STF Media has taken on some side projects to film different stuff than BMX. He shot the Gumball boat trip in France, the mini bike race at the British GP that Jeff Emig won and is on his way to Eastern Europe in a Lada to find some more treats. Maybe he can swing by the Simpel session in Tallinn on the weekend of 6-8 January. Fraser sent us the following taster of his new elusive project:
