Jeremy Twitch Stenberg Riding At Nates



Apart from his medal-winning performance at this years X-Games, since his accident in 2011, Twitch hasnt spent much time riding as perhaps some of his fans would like. Still, this video shows that he hasnt let any of his skills go rusty and can still pull effortless backflips and whips out of the bag, just like he could for 420% All Natural.

Filmed at Nate Adams compound, this practise sessions also features Ronnie Faisst and Derek Garland alongside Nate and Twitch. Make sure you watch until the end!

Oh, and while youre at it - take a look at FreestyleXtremes latest range of Twitch clothing from Famous Stars and Straps too!

Dirt Shark At Anaheim 1



Round 2 of the Monster Energy Supercross at Phoenix may be tomorrow but there is still time to get one last fix from Anaheim. And what better way than with this awesome video from Dirt Shark.

These guys get the sort of access to the riders than most of us could only dream of and a rapport with the Monster Energy Girls that few can match.

If you didnt get the chance to go to see the opening race in person, this is going to give you a taste of the atmosphere and buzz before a race than none of the more corporate videos can seem to get close to capturing.

Did we mention Monster Girls? Pretty sure we mentioned the Monster Girls.

Nitro Circus 3D Movie Premiere and Guinness World Record



Its been one heck of a wait, but last night (28th Feb) finally saw the Nitro Circus 3D movie make its way to European shores. Travis Pastrana and the Nitro crews latest production took to centre stage months ago in the USA, but weve had wait a little longer for it in the UK. The premiere took place at Londons O2, with a Guinness World Record attempt (most riders completing a backflip at one time) taking place before the start of the film, which was in turn broadcast across the UK.

Jeremy Rawle accepting the Guinness World Record

First things first.. neither disappointed! Starting with the stunt, it was quite frankly incredible. They ended up having 16 riders flying through the air (at some stage of a backflip), which was a new world record. Gregg Godfrey and Jeremy Rawle hosted the event, who both seemed super excited theyd finally got the movie onto UK screens.

Having watched trailers, looked at images and heard stories we already had a rough idea of the stunts and tricks involved in the film, so nothing was a major shock. They loosely portrayed the film as a journey on the road to Nitro Circus Live in Las Vegas, with stops in Utah, Maryland (TPs house) and Panama. With narrative from guys involved in the production and some huge names in the action sports world (Ken Block and Rob Dyrdek) it all came together really well, and made for awesome viewing.

If you get the chance to watch the film at the flicks, do it. Some of the section are incredible in 3D and it really makes you appreciate the enormity of the stunts!

Valentino Rossi Takes A Spin In Kyle Buschs NASCAR Ride!



Slowly but surely the Doctor is crossing off a drive in almost every form of Motorsport: MotoGP, Rally, F1, GT1 and now, thanks to follow Monster Energy Athlete (and record holder for the most NASCAR Nationwide Series wins) Kyle Busch, he can add NASCAR to the list too.

Although the video is frustratingly low on information (what lap times did he manage at the Charlotte Motor Speedway and how did they compare to the NASCAR pros?), Monster at least went to the effort of branding up the car with a ton of Rossi stickers and a 46 badge...
