Enter a world of magic and mystery, in my own head, where surfing and snowboarding are considered real jobs! Amazing feats of daring and skill are performed every day - and that's just getting the footage onto film!

I have to be honest, my experiences with BMX riders are few and far betwean. But 2 things I know for a certainty about these guys, the go hard and they go fucking hard! There is simply no chill factor with these dudes. Halloween Jam just proved this as guys threw themselves into the craziest jumps I have ever seen, again and again, with absolutley no regard for their own health and safety and perhaps even their sanity! I got there with 2 hours sleep after a an absolute bender of an evening and filmed for 5 hours - I did not even notice the hangover - the action was that tight.

All riders went off on their bikes the whole day, highlights include: Greg Illingworth doing tricks on every jump and blasting the dirt quater to ...the moon!, Wayne Reiche with flairs on the quater, smooth style and some super close flipwhip attemts, David Rigby riding on his new MP Salvo frame, doing big whips, 360's and many other stunts!, Jason Hood boosting the jumps super high with mad style, almost always sideways and flipped the quater pipe hip to his opporsite way!
Results:
1st - Greg Illingworth
2nd - David Rigby
3rd - Stuart Loudon
Best Trick - Greg Illingworth
Quater Best Trick - Jason Hood
