Motocross

(Recap provided by Motocross announcer "Sharpie")
Columbia, SC
March 25, 2006, Saturday nightColonial Center.What an amazing night of competition here in Columbia, SC. With almost a full house the energy was just right for Freestyle MotoX. Making it in the FMX Finals would be Slade Waltman, followed by Gabriel Villegas, Jason Rowe and Javier Villegas. But before the FMX finals the crowd was mesmerized as 9 time national champion Geoff Aaron came out and killed it in the Extreme Moto Trials portion of the show. We are sad to say that this will be Geoff's last night on tour with us he starts his training for the upcoming USA Nationals as he looks to regain his title and take his 10th National win! Good Luck Geoff.

In the Big Trick Tourney it was Gabriel Villegas and Jason Rowe battling it out in the end. Jason came out and threw a huge Indy - Rock Solid, and Gabriel hit back with his signature trick the "G-Force". But it was all "Chi-Town" Jason Rowe tonight in the ecstatic crowd's eye. Nice job J-Rowe! Coming out of intermission once again Jennifer Schneider blasted out of her Cannon and the crowd went nutz! FMX Finals time and it was heated. Slade came out first and ripped out a solid run, but with a slip up on his approach he would miss a trick. He still score a healthy 87 and took the Wendy's hot seat. Next out was Gabriel and he stuck every trick. He would take the seat from Slade with a 92. Jason came out next, and he came out swinging. With a great combination of tricks he would steak the seat from Gabriel with a 92.25. Last nights winner, Javier Villegas was last to run. And he rode like a true champ. With an arsenal of huge tricks and a wicked Tsunami he would take the win in the end with a 93. Way to go Javier!

Watch for him this summer as he takes his shot at the Dew Action Sports Tour.Peace,Sharpie.

PS: You may notice the scores were bit lower than in the past, as injured IFMA rider, Paul Smith did the judging this weekend, thanks Paul for your expertise, and welcome aboard!
