Dive bombing
So, the Dew Action Pro Sports Tour has come to an end this weekend and I gotta say, I'm a little sad. The BMX vert finals were held this afternoon and all the beautiful boys were out in their glory to perform the tricks of their well crafted trade. Jamie Bestwisk stole the show and took home the victory cup. Simon Tibron, Kevin Robinson and Chad Cagy worked out the kinks and lined up the top three. Put to extraordinary tunes, we saw them all throw it down in style. Jamie managed to go so high off the ramps, due to his extremely smooth riding. So much so, that it forced our hosts to burst out "he's so high, you could get giraffes under there!". When he was finished his glory ride, the audience went mad and proclaimed their joy by doing their best impression a la Wayne and Garth and began waving their arms in the "we're not worthy" vein (leading the pack was Ryan Guettler, another hero from these games). We witnessed a laundry list of tricks like the impossible table top, whipping the frame, the tail whip flair and the superman double tail whip. These feats sealed the deal on the day and pretty well transcended bike riding as we've come to know it. I for one, cannot wait until the end of November to see all the highlights from the tour.
