Switzerland's Nikita Ducarroz just pipped Roberts' American team-mate Perris Benegas to the bronze medal.

After throwing a few successful jams in Mexico, we decided it was time to go below the equator and check out the streets of Lima. Aside from being kicked out of every spot by the Police – Peru was amazing.

What a week in Tallinn, Estonia! @simplesessionwas a blast, the parties were off the hook and to top things off, @FTL BMX and the local Stoned Street Crew threw a sick street jam on the last day. Here are some of the highlights, including Joe Jarvis yelling at people randomly and destroying every spot we went, as well as Filippakos Kosmidis Best Trick banger. Thanks to @Billy Perry and every one involved for a good time. Can't wait for next year!
WOW. The Russians really know how to get down for a street jam. The people at Stress BMX did a ton of work getting the third instalment of their Wolf Pack Jam going, and torrential rain halfway through couldn't stop the madness. This goes hard as hell. Congrats to Stress and all the riders for putting on an incredible jam.
