Mongoose Jam at Woodward West

                           

Here’s how the Jam will work:

-5 Mongoose pro riders as Team Captains who select 4 pro rippers as teammates and then bring on one lucky Woodward camper as their amateur teammate (making for a total of 30 riders competing in the Jam).

-Each captain slots 2 riders into each of our 3 BMX contests (Street, Park, & Dirt) giving us a field of 10 guys in each contest.

-All 10 guys compete for the top score in their discipline and we’ll combine the individual scores for each pair of teammates and rank the teams after each contest.

-Pros split up the $40,000 prize purse and the 5 Woodward campers each get a Mongoose flow deal. The camper on the winning squad will get to spend another week at Woodward Camp!

If you can’t jump in your car to hang with us in person (did we mention the event is free?), be sure to bookmark this page for all the latest event details. Don’t forget to join us July 26-27 for the live stream of the Mongoose Jam contests from Woodward West!

Huge thanks to our friends at Woodward Camp and Alli Sports for their support in bringing the Jam to life!

Street League 2012: Arizona

I know I'm kinda late... Wish I could've covered this event, but hey thanks for the web! Nyjah’s winning streak came to a halt today in Glendale, Arizona. P-Rod’s flawless barrage of switch tricks accumulated too many points for Nyjah to keep up with. It came down to Chris Cole, who could have taken the win on his last trick, he went for a 50-50 kickflip out on the big out-ledge and bailed it. Paul wins his first Street League ever and that nice check for 150 grand. Cole did come up in the Chevy Overdrive best trick comp. He nailed insane tricks all over the course and got 10 G’s for his effort. The top eight heading to New Jersey for the Championships are P-Rod, Nyjah, Cole, Bastien, Luan, Sheckler, Malto, and Chaz. See you August 26 in New Jersey.
