Pros and Ams ripped Woodward West’s Hangar apart during today’s Park Competition at Mongoose Jam. Each athlete was given 40 seconds and three runs to get stylish and prove themselves, with their best session counting toward their final score. Judges looked out for challenging moves, original lines and the most unique use of the space. The amateurs looked at home in the Hangar landing tons of tricks with ease while campers came out to cheer them on. Team Wallace’s Chase Pauza started his run with a big bunny hop drop in and

showed smooth transitions with a flair transfer among other one-of-a-kind lines. Team Ryan’s Felipe Trujillo highlighted his street style and jumping variations, while Team Illingworth’s Bryce Tyron had serious momentum and flow showing off huge flairs, double tailwhips, and back flips

The crowd went nuts for the pros. Highlights included Andy Buckworth’s double backflips over the spine as well as a no handed variation, and Tyler Fernengel’s truck driver off the wall into the banked landing. Daniel Sandoval showed major skill with multiple tailwhip and barspin combos. Powerhouse Dennis Enarson road the course like he owned it, and his impressive ally-oop wall-ride secured his place in second. However, it was Kevin Peraza who won the day with his signature superman seatgrab, 360 downside tailwhip transfer, and other major maneuvers all over the park.

Mongoose Jam wraps up tomorrow with the Street Competition which will determine the team that will go home with the largest portion of the $50,000 prize purse. In addition, each amateur will take home a new GoPro; a custom, American-made Mongoose frame; and tons of other Mongoose swag.
