Rockwell Athletes Flashin’ Gold at X!
SALT LAKE CITY, UT (August 6, 2010) Rockwell athletes Matt Buyten and Ashley Fiolek both brought home gold medals this past weekend at X Games 16. Buyten edged out fellow Rockwell athlete Ronnie Renner in the Moto X Step Up competition and took gold after clearing a height of 33’ 6’’. Renner put up a fight and posted a 32’ 6’’, good enough for silver. When asked what this win means to him, Buyten replied, “It means everything. Every year it’s a dogfight. These guys out here are amazing. Everyone makes it look easy, but it’s not. That landing sucks. I’ve got a chiropractor and massage appointment lined up for Monday.”
Rockwell’s Ashley Fiolek also came home with some golden hardware. Fiolek laid down some fast laps on her CRF and topped the Women’s Super X, adding another gold to her collection. After taking the win two years straight, Ashley will be looking to three-peat in 2011.
Rockwell Team riders Justin Brayton and Chris Blose finished 2nd and 6th respectively in the Men’s Super X while Ricky James finished 9th in the Super X Adaptive.
Remember, if you aren’t rockin’ Rockwell, you just ain’t rockin’ it right!
