It was a coming of age performance by Olympic hopeful Bodi Turner overnight, as he upstaged compatriot Sam Willoughby to finish second in the third round of the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup in Angelholm, Sweden. The wind was more subdued at the Sibirien BMX Arena after it had forced a re-schedule to the competition the previous day. Although still a niggling presence, it didn’t stop a number of Aussie riders from producing season best performances, as Lauren Reynolds also got in on the action to finish in third.

Liam Phillips (GBR) and Alise Post (USA) celebrated huge wins in Angelholm Sweden at the third round of the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup. Not only did they win World Cup race number three of the season, they took over the leader plates from Mariana Pajon (COL) and Sam Willoughby (AUS) at the same time.

Rhys Kember: It's actually my first time to Europe so really excited to be there but to ride at such an awesome event like LOD just makes it that much better.

Do you prefer big jumps, or do you like decent sized jumps that won't kill you to do your tricks on?
Rhys Kember: The bigger the better! I love the feeling of hitting massive jumps it makes you feel like your flying so the bigger the jump the longer your up there ???? the added risk factor gives a wild edge to it also.
The wind played a big factor at the third round of the UCI BMX SX World Cup in Sweden during qualifying. Getting on that hill and jumping a 11 meter gap with strong headwind and 7 others by your side is crazy. That was also the thoughts of the organisation and racing was scrapped for the day for the ladies.
