Welcome to the penultimate event on the 2012 Red Bull XFighters World Tour, in Munich. Levi Sherwood just needed to win to secure his World Title, but Frenchman, Tom pages, had other ideas.

Dirt Bike Porn - Where the Trail Ends


Watching the trailer I start thinking that I may need to purchase a downhill rig again soon. These guys are seriously pushing the limits of what is possible in Freeriding. These are not many ridden trails on their local hill, but serious mountains in some remote areas of the planet. I cannot wait to watch the full movie.

Xgames 2012 - Day 1


Ok, so as most of you know by now, I have been gallivanting around California for some time now. The primary reason was to cover the XGames in all their glory. Turns out ESPN decided not to give me my press pass (To say I was disappointment was a severe understatement.), but life goes on and luckily I still managed to secure tickets for a couple of events.

I just got back to my hotel after the first of those and it was a big one. The Moto X Freestyle competition was mind blowing. Most of the talk was about Travis Pastrana not being there, but I can tell you that all it meant was that the young guns had their opportunity and two of them took it. Levi Sherwood was commanding and oh so smooth. He came in for the Silver, but I can tell you it was dam close. The man of the night however was the first Japanese Podium finisher in XGames history. Taka Hagashino blew minds here tonight and won the Gold with his first run! I watched him fly above my head (Managed good tickets for this one.) Check out the Gold winning run...



Also today were the Big Air Elimination for the skaters and while I could not watch them live, I got to watch most of show inside the Staples Center on the big screen. Some huge action including two massive 900's. This competition is going to get mad!  Mitchie Brusco and Tom Schaar both pull off 900s in the Skate Big Air Eliminations. These guys are kids, Mitchie is 14! Wild I tell you, just plain wild!


Tomorrow is another day and I will be at all the Moto X action including Step Up, Best Whip and Best Trick. Judging by tonight's action, the Best trick is going to be off the hook. A massive thank you to Red Bull South Africa again for all their help! You guys are awesome.

The Friday Mix - Distant Shores Trailer, Erzberg Enduro and California Summer Surf


Welcome to my Friday Mix, fresh from the hi speed bandwidth of the West coast of the USA. It has been a trip having such unfettered and fast internet access and I have been making the most of it. First up check out the trailer for Surfer Magazine's "Distant Shores" film, which will be free to download shortly. Then we have the highlights video from the Red Bull Erzberg Rodeo, the craziest enduro race on the planet. Next up I thought I would show you some summer waves in California, though I have yet to find waves this fun, as the June Gloom bites and the swell continues to be tiny. Enjoy the mix...

Welcome to this week's Friday Mix with me, Captain Kai. This week we start with the teasers for 2 live events in the IBA Bodyboard World Tour's Arica Challenge, from Chile, which starts today and you can watch the live webcasts on the IBA Website. Then you should definitely check out the world's toughest Enduro event, the Red Bull Hare Scramble, which you can watch live via the web on Red Bull's Website. Before we get there though, enjoy a tropical surf trip with the Rip Curl ladies, as they put their new bikinis to the test, with Alana Blanchard, Bethany Hamilton, Tyler Wright and Pauline Ado. We finish off with the "Top 10" jumps of all time - could be some debate over these - but a pretty inspiring video all the same! Enjoy your weekend and make sure you get out there and ride...

Farm Jam 2012 - with Unit BMX


Every year a pack of BMX and FMX stars head down south to the land of the Long White Cloud - that would be NZ - for the Farm Jam. It looks like a fun event and always produces loads of good footage. This year they got rained out, but that did not stop the Unit boys from riding hard!



Featuring Dew Tour winner Kyle Baldock, along with BMX dirt legends Mike 'Hucker' Clark, TJ Ellis, Jed Mildon, Andrew Ahumada and many more, the 2012 Unit Farm Jam went down recently in the deep south of New Zealand.

Presented by Unit Clothing, the Farm Jam is located on the picturesque Frew Farm. The Frew brothers have spent years carving the amazing one-of-a-kind dirt courses out of the rolling green hillsides that surround their family home, and love to invite riders from all around the world to experience it with them.

Imagine endless rolling hills, your own digging machinery, private fishing spots, bikes and a heap of good friends to share it with!

Take a trip with Kyle, Hucker, TJ and the rest of the crew as they let loose on the secluded farm. Not just a regular contest, the Farm Jam is an experience.

South Africa has a pretty strong BMX scene. Every year more and more guys are rocking up at the events and comps, pushing the establishment. But, they all know there is one guy they are not going to beat. There is one guy that time after time takes the wins, including at Ultimate X in 2012. That guy is Greg Illingworth. He is the best in SA and now he heads out to take on the world with Mongoose and Monster Energy. This is his latest video piece...
