from Chino, CA took his second win in the 15-17 advanced division, but it was Oscar Maldonado from Homeland, CA taking the overall series win. Monster Army rider Pierce Howell from Santee, CA continued his winning ways taking home his second consecutive win of the tour in the 12-14 Advanced division as well as the overall series win. 
The top 3 from this event and overall winners were rewarded with insane prizes, including a GoPro Camera, Rockwell Watch, Monster Army backpacks and apparel, SPY sunglasses and other prizes from Hookit and tour partners. 
Over $1,000 was raised for Brett 'Mad Dog' Banasiewicz in a special fundraiser to offer continued support in his recovery. A handful of winners went home with a Monster Energy fridge, two complete Mirraco Bikes, a Haro frame, Pro-Tec Helmets and parts and apparel from Primo BMX, Pant Saggin Dezigns, SPY, Flying Icon, Armourdillo and Swearcrew. 
“We couldn’t be happier with the way things ended after our first Recon Tour,” said Scott Tilton, CEO of Hookit, which runs the Recon Tour. “Our only goal was to put together solid contests that helped the riders get their name out there while giving brand partners new ways to support the riders. Thank you so much to everyone who helped make this happen.” 
“The last and final stop of the Recon Tour was absolutely amazing and I’m really stoked on the vibe and where the tour is headed,” said Christopher Stumbles from Monster Energy. “We’re looking forward to blowing it up for years to come and really giving back to the riders.” Below are the final results from round three and the overall finishes in each division.
