Action sports event producer ASA Entertainment (ASA) brings its ASA Big Air BMX Triples tour (Triples) to ARCO Arena on Saturday, August 28, for the third stop of the 2010 season. Top freestyle BMX pros will take on the challenge of a 195-foot long wooden course consisting of a 25-foot high drop-in ramp, two 25-foot wide jumps and a course-ending quarter-pipe, all while grabbing ‘big air’ to perform their flips, flairs, whips and spins. This head-to-head competition pits each athlete against their equally talented rivals in two-man battles, forcing them to throw down their most spectacular aerials stunts in quick succession to best their opponent and advance toward the event title. Athletes competing with great success at previous Triples events have included: 15-year old Brett Banasiewicz (South Bend, Ind.), the winner of last weekend’s Augusta Triples event with his history-making double front flip, X Games 15 BMX Park Gold medalist and 2010 DeKalb Triples event winner Scotty Cranmer (Howell, NJ), two-time, 2009 Triples event champion (Minneapolis and Orange
County Fair) Ryan Guettler (Queensland, Aus.), 2009 Chicago Triples event champion T.J. Ellis (Moreno Valley, Calif.), Addison, Illinois’ Koji Kraft, and freestyle BMX stars Cory Nastazio (Flushing, NY), James Foster (Redlands, Calif.), Luke Parslow (Melbourne, Aus. and Mike Spinner (Oceanside, NY).
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
