Right now, freestyle motocross is experiencing a bit of a slow streak,
but as soon as Red Bull X-Fighters kicks off in April, you can bet that
everything will be back to its usual chaotic ways. However, even though
the competition scene may seem a bit slow, there's actually quite a lot
going on.
First off, we have to give a
HUGE congratulations to
Cam
Sinclair. After nearly losing his life on a failed double backflip,
Cam is not only back on the bike and shredding the ramps, but he's
preparing to throw the double backflip yet again. For footage of Cam
hucking the double flip into his foam pit, as well as a behind the
scenes video of a recent Fox Racing photo shoot, check out his official
website,
www.camsinclair.com.au.
We've been reaching out to him for an interview, so hopefully we'll
hear something back soon. Could you imagine if he just showed up at the
Red Bull X-Fighters in Mexico City and just threw down the double flip?
In other Aussie news, between getting his tricks re-dialed due to recent
surgeries,
Blake "Bilko" Williams has been trying his hand video
editing. That's right
Cliff Talley, Bilko is gunning for your
job and who better to get firsthand footage than the man himself? To

Back in the states, the Nuclear Cowboyz tour and the Gravity
Slashers tour are keeping the majority of the riders busy, but between
the shows, the boys have been riding and staying sharp at their
compounds. A lot of people have actually been riding at
Jimmy
Fitzpatrick's place as of late. After rebuilding most of the
compound, it's no wonder Fitzland is riding a wave of popularity. While
shooting some FMX riding in Temecula, our friends over at
TransWorld
Motocross hooked up with
Nate Adams for a quick interview
about his Supercross attempt,
DEFT Family and the two-stroke to four-stroke
movement. It's really funny because even though Nate gave a really good
interview, the always ruthless commenters on
TransWorld's
website have got into an arguing match about the ongoing
four-stroke vs. two-stroke debate.

TW interview.
