FATBMX Your Online BMX News Resource Since 1998

Let's keep the $ 5000,= USD in the hands of a BMX-er. The Dew Action Sports Tour is hosting a best trick of the week contest and Ryan Nyquist, Chad Kagy and Daniel Dhers are running against a skatebaorder and a freestyle motocross guy. This is already a good thing because there is more chance of a BMX-er winning than a skateboarder of FMX-er. Anyway, [url=http://www.dewactionsportstour.com/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=107]click this link[/url] and follow the steps. According to Ryan it is possible to vote up to 20 times so go crazy. Ryan is doing a barspin no foot cancan on dirt. Kagy does a 540 flatspin flair on vert and Daniel Dhers pulls a 3-whip with a no-footed can can in there.

FBMBMX will be holding a Jam at the X-dreams park in the bowl on Sunday July 23rd. They're putting 500 bucks up for best line/trick with the help of Duffs, and Leland will be in a chicken suit. If you fancy dressing up yourself you can be awarded with a random $ 100 USD cash handout. Making money has never been this easy. The event is only a couple of days before the annual Kink Demolition Derby so lots of people should be in town. Are you down for a bowl of creamy ghetto flavor?

The Flat Art Crew is putting on a Funk BMX movie night. Instead of soccer they'll show BMX at the Haus Der Kunst in Stuttgart, Germany. Next to the Deluxe BMX videos they'll have a live flatland show planned on July 1st. The BMX flatland show starts at 21:30pm and the film starts at 22:00pm. It's free to attend.

Next to this news blurb, Flo Sailer had the following to report:

T-mobile will wire the whole Rebel Jam area with free wireless lan access and they will set up 5 computers for web access at anytime for the riders and media. They also will present a short 4-minute clip at [url=http://www.rebeljam.com/]RebelJam.com[/url] to show a highlight cut of the weekend. T-Mobile will be added subtly with "wireless support by"  on the ads and posters.

Andy Zeiss (co-organizer of the event): "It was important to us that T-mobile will have a usefull intergration at the Rebel Jam. We think it´s an enrichment for everyone. So don't forget to bring your pc!"

“I’m so excited I can’t even explain it,” said Napolitan, who finished last in the 2005 Dew Action Sports Tour season standings. “This win means everything to me. Training at (Camp) Woodward (Pennsylvania) has improved my riding – trying things during the day and dreaming about them during the night.”
