METAL + MOTOCROSS + MAYHEM = RED BULL METALLICROSS
Melting Pot of Motocross to Feature Post-Apocalyptic “dream track” designed by
James Stewart, Travis Pastrana, Ronnie Renner, David Knight and Geoff Aaron

Los Angeles, CA – August 10, 2010 – This October, the stars will align to create one of most unique and challenging tracks motocross has ever seen. Five of the world's best motocross athletes will come together to design and build a "dream track" blending several two-wheel off-road disciplines. The athletes - James Stewart, Travis Pastrana, Ronnie Renner, David Knight and Geoff Aaron - will bring to life a track that unites design elements from supercross, motocross, endurocross, freestyle and trials. Each of the five riders will contribute a portion to the total design, and the result will be a mash-up of everything they’ve always wanted to put into a race track, but were never allowed to do. This motocross melting pot will be known as Red Bull Metallicross, and will be held at the venerable Pala Raceway on Saturday, October 23.

With some of the best talent in motocross serving as designers, the track will definitely be revolutionary, but it will also have a theme to bump the excitement up a few more notches. As Red Bull Metallicross implies, it will not only feature top-level motocross action, but “metal” music as well. Rock and metal bands will perform on the track in-between each round of racing, and the event will culminate with a special performance by a top heavy metal group.

Red Bull Metallicross is open to pros and amateurs alike, but the track will not be for the faint of heart. The track will be as unforgiving as it will be revolutionary, and will feature: a nearly two story drop into the first turn; a 12-foot-high step-up; dirt-to-concrete whoops; a creek crossing; stretches of sand; a stair set made of railroad ties; explosions and geysers of flame. The racing format will also add some new wrinkles and twists to traditional racing. There will be several heat races, a last chance qualifier and wildcard elements that will keep the fans riveted to the action on the track and give every rider a true chance to prove themselves.

“When I was approached to help design a section of the Red Bull Metallicross track, I jumped all over it,” said Stewart. “I have always had some pretty crazy thoughts about obstacles and elements to a track. Now with this special event it gives me the blank canvas I need to put these crazy elements together. You can look forward to some wild stuff that will take each athlete's absolute best to navigate and survive.”

“Metallicross is going to be the raddest event ever. I'm pumped to be a part of something so revolutionary to the sport,” said Renner. “We have a chance to help design our own real life video game…this event is going to be all-time!”

Aspiring racers will have the chance to earn a spot in the main event during one of two regional qualifier events. The top 10 riders from each qualifier will move on and pit themselves against some of the best professionals in the world at the Red Bull Metallicross main event. Qualifiers will take place at the following locations:

September 25: E-Street MX, Riverfront Track, Sacramento, Calif.
October 2: Pala Raceway, Pala, Calif.

“Pala Raceway is honored to host Red Bull Metallicross, as we know from previous events how far Red Bull pushes the envelope,” said Ryan Ouellette, president MXMPI/Pala Raceway. “While we are in the middle of getting ready for the Pala National, we can hardly wait to begin construction on the course and progress the sport.”

2007 and 2009 Supercross and 2008 AMA Motocross champion (perfect 24 for 24 season).

Què viva Red Bull X-Fighters!

Since the victory over Holland in the final of the FIFA World Cup in South Africa, the entire country of Spain has been in permanent party mode, and with the fourth stop of the Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour 2010 coming to Madrid’s Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas on July 22 and 23, the celebrations are set to continue. Among the favorites for the win at the traditional two-day event in the most beautiful bullfighting ring on the planet will be not only overall leader Andrè Villa and local hero and fans’ favorite Dany Torres, but also the international stars such as Levi Sherwood from New Zealand and Australia's Robbie Maddison.

MADRID (ESP) - The fact that the locals in Madrid know how to have a good time will come as no surprise to the Red Bull X-Fighters, for whom the Spanish capital has become somewhat of a second home as it plays host to the highlight event of the most prestigious FMX tour in the world year after year. On July 22 and 23, the finest freestyle motocross riders on the planet will return once again to the legendary Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas to show why FMX and Madrid simply belong together.

The points situation in the overall standings going into this year’s event is just as close as it was in 2009, with the three stops in Mexico City, Giza and Moscow producing three different winners. Thanks to consistent performances, reigning Red Bull X-Fighters Champion Nate Adams has managed to reduce the gap to standings leader Andrè Villa, winner of the first event of the season in Mexico City, to just 20 points, while his win on Moscow’s legendary Red Square just a few weeks ago means that Levi “Rubber Kid” Sherwood is right back in the fight for the title with 175 points. Hot on his heels are Robbie Maddison and Adam Jones, who impressed at the second stop of the season in Egypt to take the win under the gaze of the Great Sphinx of Giza. The situation is so tight that a win could see any one of the riders in the top five assume the overall lead after the event in Spain.

Yet, when it comes to the passionate Spanish fans packed into Las Ventas, there is one man who is a favorite for the win year after year – local hero Dany Torres. Pushed on by tens of thousands of Spaniards screaming their lungs out, Torres always manages to step it up a level in front of his home fans and took his first win of the 2009 season last year in Madrid. Following an operation on his broken hand, the 23-year-old is raring to go after making his comeback in Moscow just a few weeks ago and will be looking for a repeat of his incredible victory in 2009. Earlier this week, Torres took to the air in the bullfighting ring in the old Spanish town of Chinchon, south of Madrid (see attached images).

Qualifying and the Wild Card event will take place this evening, while the World Tour competition is scheduled to take place on Friday evening in front of a sell-out crowd of 25,000 fans.

The live event webcast on Friday, July 23 will be at 4:30 p.m. ET / 1:30 p.m. PT on Red Bull Web TV at www.redbullxfighters.com

Russian Debut for Red Bull X-Fighters

(Moscow) June 25, 2010 - Just weeks after the spectacular FMX showdown under the gaze of the Great Sphinx of Giza in Egypt, the 2010 Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour is set to celebrate yet another premiere as it touches down on Moscow’s famous Red Square. The 12 best FMX riders in the world will come together in the heart of the Russian capital’s famous old town on Saturday, June 26 to battle it out head to head as the Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour hits Russia for the first time.

Preparations for the third stop of the Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour 2010 on Red Square in the heart of Moscow have completed, with the kickers and landing hills moved into place in front of St. Basil's Cathedral, with Lenin’s Mausoleum and the walls of the Kremlin just beyond the world-famous colored onion domes in anticipation of the world’s best FMX riders. More than 40,000 spectators are expected to pack the famous square, which was named a World Heritage Site in 1990.

To prepare for his first Red Bull X-Fighters appearance, Russian rider Alexey Kolesnikov made history at his training compound in Kolomna by becoming the first freestyle motocross athlete in history to jump a bike over a flying truck. Despite strong winds, Kolesnikov threw several different tricks over nine-ton Kamaz truck driven by 2010 Dakar Rally winner Vladimir Chagin of Russia, including a huge backflip off the kicker. See attached images.

After two of the six stops making up the World Tour 2010, it is the winner of the season opener in Mexico, Norway's Andrè Villa, who leads the overall standings. However, the rest of the international FMX elite is in hot pursuit, with 2009 Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour Champion Nate Adams just 35 points behind Villa in second, while fellow American rider Adam Jones will be hoping to recapture the form that gave him a surprise win in Egypt.

Double backflip legend Cameron Sinclair is fit again after his horrifying crash last year in Madrid and will be looking to mix it again with the best in the world in Moscow. Also returning will be Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour winner 2008 Mat Rebeaud of Switzerland, who suffered a heavy fall during training for the World Tour 2010 that forced him out of the first two stops of the season. Last but not least, Spanish wunderkind Dany Torres is also back. Torres rode the first stop of the season in Mexico City’s bullfighting ring with a broken arm, forcing him to land several tricks one-handed. An operation meant he had to watch from the sidelines in Egypt, but the fans’ favorite is back and raring to go in Moscow.

The event begins at 8.30 p.m. local time. After stops in Madrid on July 22-23 and London on August 14, the Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour Champion will be crowned at the season finale in Rome on October 1.

2010 RED BULL X-FIGHTERS WORLD TOUR: PUNCH YOUR TICKET AT THE FIRST-EVER RED BULL X-FIGHTERS RANKING SESSION

2010 RED BULL X-FIGHTERS WORLD TOUR:
PUNCH YOUR TICKET AT THE FIRST-EVER RED BULL X-FIGHTERS RANKING SESSION
The search is on for undiscovered FMX talent to compete alongside the world’s best riders
At the Red Bull Compound

Santa Monica, Calif. (November 3, 2009) – The 2010 Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour will kick-start its fourth season in February at the Red Bull Compound, an exclusive, private training facility located deep in the mountains north of Los Angeles. For the first time in the history of Red Bull X-Fighters, riders will have to battle it out and earn their spots in the world’s most prestigious freestyle motocross series at the official Ranking Session.

Only the top four athletes from the 2009 season automatically qualified for the 2010 World Tour, leaving six spots up for grabs. The secured spots go to 2009 champion Nate Adams (USA), Robbie Maddison (AUS), Eigo Sato (JPN) and Mat Rebeaud (SUI). The Red Bull X-Fighters Ranking Session will be held at the Red Bull Compound between February 2 and February 10, where the greatest collection of the world’s best FMX athletes will battle it out for the additional six coveted spots on the World Tour.

GLOBAL TALENT MEETS (LEGIT) YOUTUBE TALENT

Only 30 riders will be selected to participate in the Ranking Session. If you have not previously competed in a Red Bull X-Fighters, Dew Tour or X Games event and think you have what it takes to hang with the best FMX athletes in the world, submit a 90-second video of your best performance to www.redbullxfighters.com by December 1, 2009.

“I'm excited about being invited to compete in the Red Bull X-Fighters championship again in 2010,” said Maddison. “X-Fighters has the best riders in the world throwing down the gnarliest runs in the most amazing locations around the world. I know the level will be higher again this year, so I'm busy learning fresh stuff for the new comp season.”

The world’s premier, most-progressive freestyle motocross series demands a high degree of skill, as indicated by the minimum requirement needed to qualify for the Ranking Session: “You’ll need to have at least one backflip combination in your portfolio,” said Tour Director Tes Sewell.

Another new milestone for the 2010 Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour will include two wildcard entries at each stop to complete the field of the tour, which will start in April and run to September at spectacular, iconic locations across the globe, which will be announced shortly.

Courage, talent and self-confidence are the key ingredients, as 17-year-old Levi Sherwood of New Zealand demonstrated last year. After defending champion Mat Rebeaud was sidelined with an injury, he discovered the talented young Kiwi rider, and Sherwood, now known as the “Rubber Kid,” paid Rebeaud back by knocking him out of the competition a few days later on his way to winning the 2009 season opener in Mexico City.

American Freestyle Motocross Association Established

Press Release from AFXMA

Athletes and Action Sports Leaders Take Proactive Role in Promoting Safety Regulations and Cultivating Overall Growth in Freestyle Motocross and Affiliated Events

Irvine, CA - The American Freestyle Motocross Association (AFMXA), a collective of Freestyle Motocross riders and action sports industry leaders, today announced its official launch as an organization established to manage, protect and develop the sport of freestyle motocross at both the professional and recreational levels. Inspired in memory of American freestyle rider, X Games gold medalist and Metal Mulisha team member, Jeremy Lusk, the AFMXA is dedicated to improving rider safety, preparation and education through programs and services that will assist athletes in improving their skills and experience in the sport. Additionally, the Association is committed to increasing awareness around medical treatment, emergency response planning and training at events worldwide.

With interest from recreational riders, corporate partners and action sports companies around the globe, the AFMXA was organized in an effort to create a unified voice at all sanctioned and non-sanctioned freestyle motocross events, parks, facilities and demonstrations; and implement a safer environment for athletes. The Association will encourage neck braces for riders; report on standards for suitable weather conditions and proper ramp landings at events; assist with providing trained on-site and on-call medical assistance; and prepare safety policies and emergency response plans. In addition to providing guidelines for safer practices, the AFMXA will host an annual awards ceremony to recognize top athletes and companies for their accomplishments and influence on the sport.

The Association's advisory board consists of prominent figures in the action sports and medical industries, including Metal Mulisha founder and most decorated Freestyle Motocross rider in X Games history, Brian Deegan; CEO of La Jolla Group, Toby Bost; ESPN's Lizz Leach; Ryan Hagy, Cameron Steele, Dr. Pete Katsyiannis, and Dr. Gus Gialamas,among others.

"With the tragic death of Jeremy Lusk, it became clear that this sport, which has grown significantly over the last few years, needed an Association to develop and oversee stricter safety guidelines," said Toby Bost. "The AFMXA works to define racing rules and evolve the sport for athletes and supporters. As corporate sponsors, it's our responsibility to do more than just put our product on riders. We need to be activists for the industry as a whole -- and that means being proactively involved in establishing processes that enable freestyle moto to keep growing."

"The AFMXA is the voice of all freestyle riders and the time has come for us to properly organize our sport -- it starts with safety," commented Brian Deegan. "It's also about time that athletes and industry leaders are recognized for their achievements and dedication. I look forward to the positive changes this Association and its members are going to make for freestyle motocross."

Earlier this year, the Lusk Legacy Foundation was established to help improve overall safety in the sport, protect the livelihoods of riders and their families, and provide them with legal, medical and financial consultation and representation. The Lusk Legacy Foundation has been named the official charitable organization for the AFMXA.

On July 30th at 5pm PST, ESPN will broadcast a special presentation on Jeremy Lusk and the AFMXA. For further information, visit www.afmxa.com.

Robbie Maddison backflips over London's Tower Bridge

Press Release from Red Bull

Freestyle motocross star Robbie Maddison took a sleeping London by surprise last night as he performed a spectacular backflip over an open Tower Bridge in the British capital. The 27-year-old Australian took to the air at 2:55 a.m. and soared nearly one hundred feet over the Thames River.

LONDON, July 13, 2009 - The early hours of Monday morning saw Maddison become the first rider in history to take on Tower Bridge on a motorbike. The Australian used the famous London landmark as a take-off and landing ramp as he cleared the gap above the Thames River after the iconic bridge had been raised. With an approach speed of approximately 40 mph, Maddison took off from the north side of the bridge, performed a no-handed backflip, and held his landing in front of the south tower of one of the world’s most famous landmarks.

Maddison joined forces with Red Bull once again to make his UK dream a reality, having already chalked up the world’s longest ever motorbike jump (350 feet), and the highest ever vertical ‘step up’ at the replica Arc de Triomphe in Las Vegas on New Year’s Eve 2008, along with a drop of more than 85 feet down to a landing ramp below.

Maddison said: “The whole experience was awesome. Since the jumps in Las Vegas I’ve been set on doing something special here in London so the Red Bull team and I have been secretly scoping out Tower Bridge for months. We had a matter of minutes on the bridge and had to time everything to the second, there were so many factors to get right, but we pulled it off.

People say I’m crazy, but I just want to push the boundaries of my sport and my body to the limit and I love taking on these huge challenges. It was an incredible feeling to fly between the two towers and over the Thames.”

Maddison will return to London on August 22 to take part in the final stop of the Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour 2009 at Battersea Power Station. He won the Calgary stop of the series in May.

The 2009 Red Bull X-Fighters Texas event will air this Sunday, July 19, at 1:30 p.m. ET / 10:30 a.m. PT on ABC, immediately following the British Open.

Many people helped make this event possible, including Visit London (www.visitlondon.com) and the owners of Tower Bridge, the City of London Corporation (www.cityoflondon.gov.uk).

Nate Adams wins Red Bull X-Fighters Texas

Press Release from Red Bull

FORT WORTH, Texas (June 27, 2009) – Just as the setting sun was calming the blazing daytime heat, eleven of the world’s best freestyle motocross riders turned it right back up at Red Bull X-Fighters Texas. Nate Adams defeated defending event winner and 2008 series champion, Mat Rebeaud before a capacity crowd of more than 22,000 fans in the Historic Fort Worth Stockyards. Speaking of historic, Australian rider Cam Sinclair nailed the first-ever double backflip in a competition run, sending the fans into a frenzy. Thomas Pagès of France suffered a hip injury in an unsuccessful attempt at the first front flip in a competition run.

“Red Bull X-Fighters is the very top of FMX,” said Adams. “There is nothing like winning against such world-class athletes, and in front of my fellow Americans. I’m really happy I am healthy and riding well. It was all-around a great weekend for me.”

“There has never been a double backflip in competition before,” said Sinclair, who suffered bruised ankles from the hard landings. “I don’t really care about the fact I was eliminated in the semis – I’m just happy I’m more or less healthy.”

Japan’s Eigo Sato now leads the overall standing of the international series with 215 points, closely followed by Rebeaud (210 points) and Robbie Maddison (145 points).

The scene was authentic Texas, replete with Rodeo Queens, bull riding and even the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, who many say contributed to the heat. Supercross legend and current TORC off-road truck driver Ricky Johnson got the evening started by tearing into the purpose-built venue with a special passenger – Fort Worth Mayor Michael Moncrief, who welcomed the fans to the second-straight Red Bull X-Fighters held in his town, followed by members of the Red Bull Air Force, who made a high-speed drop-in onto the course.

The course was a genuine challenge for the riders, presenting them with more than 15 different jump combinations, thanks to the 850 truckloads of dirt that were sculpted in the three weeks leading up to the event.

Red Bull X-Fighters Texas Results:
1. Nate Adams (USA) 100 points
2. Mat Rebeaud (SUI) 80 points
3. Cameron Sinclair (AUS) 65 points
4. Eigo Sato (JPN) 55 points
5. Robbie Maddison (AUS) 45 points
6. Jeremy Stenberg (USA) 35 points
7. Dany Torres (SPA) 30 points
8. Adam Jones (USA) 25 points
9. Andre Villa (NOR) 20 points
10. Thomas Pages (FRA) 15 points
11. Jeff Kargola (USA) 10 points

The Texas stop is the third of five international Red Bull X-Fighters events in 2009, starting with the traditional kick-off at the 45,000-seat Monumental Plaza de Toros in Mexico City in March. Calgary hosted Canada’s first Red Bull X-Fighters on May 30 at the Calgary Stampede. Next up is the Las Ventas bullring in Madrid, which will enjoy its eighth-consecutive year with a stop on July 16-17. The series wraps up with a visit to London’s Battersea Power Station on August 22.

Red Bull X-Fighters was created in 2001, debuting in Valencia, Spain at the bullring where the legendary ‘Mad’ Mike Jones claimed victory. Since that historic night, Red Bull X-Fighters events have taken place in the world’s most iconic locations, including the famous bullrings in Madrid and Mexico City, Slane Castle in Ireland, the Sambodromo in Rio de Janeiro, a massive stone quarry in Wuppertal, Germany and the Stadion X-Lecia in Warsaw, Poland.

Red Bull X-Fighters Texas will be broadcast on ABC on Sunday, July 19 at 1:30 p.m. ET / 10:30 a.m., immediately following the British Open golf tournament.
