A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of being invited to attend Cam’s Hillside Dirt Jam. This is BMX dirt jumping at its finest with some of the best riders around.
Cam White has a bunch of big dirt jumps built up on his land. These are amongst the biggest if not the biggest in Australia. Every year he hosts an invitation only event bringing some of the best riders Australia has and a few from overseas. This year the big overseas name was Mike Hucker Clark who prior to the event took it upon himself to capture a very irate tiger snake (crazy American).
Wind delayed the day’s events and for a while it looked like it might have to be postponed but it dropped off in the afternoon and things got underway. First through the set was Danny Campbell but it wasn’t long before others followed suite and soon straight airs progressed into some of the wildest tricks I have seen on bikes before. Not being too good with trick names I’m afraid I can’t tell you even a quarter of what they were doing.
Fuel TV were there to film the events and had their own photographers so me being there was purely to watch and hangout. I found a nice spot to sit and relax and fired off a few shots while watching the days events unfold. Festivities continued on late into the night.
A big thanks has to go to Born To Ride Freestyle for setting things up for me. If you like your BMX be sure to swing by his page and check it out.
Below is the highlights gallery and below that is the preview for the Fuel Tv show.
