Terry’s consistency pays off and he edges out over Viki Gomez to take third place at VooDoo Jam and Fourth in the BMX Flatland World Circuit. Viki Gomez has gained enough points from the past events to take the third in the circuit.

The battle for 1st and 2nd at the VooDoo Jam is the most intense battles in sport of flatland. The remaining two riders were Uchi and Matthias Dandois from France. Uchi had the unfortunate luck of getting a flat tire right before the battle began. After changing the flat, he had to readjust, and Mattias took full advantage of the opportunity. Mattias blazed with front and back wheel combinations with a consistency that screamed first place. However, in the second run, Uchi would not go down without a fight. Uchi threw down one of the most amazing runs of competition, with style, flow, originality, and consistency. They were neck and neck at the end of the battle.

It’s time to get the jump off for the Flatland World Circuit 2009. The best riders in the world have been raising the level of flatland at their home practice areas and the time has come for them to traverse the planet to do battle at the only international flatland BMX competition series. Stop one on the tour is the Riviera Ninja Spin contest in Monte Carlo.

Each of the three stops in the Flatland World Circuit takes place on a different continent.
Round one brings riders to the ultra-exclusive French Riviera. Monte-Carlo is home and playground of the wealthiest individuals on the planet. People came off their yachts and parked their Ferrari’s to see the best flatland riders in the world do battle in front of the Stars and Bars Restaurant at the harbor.

Amateur riders also came out to represent on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. Riders ranging from teenagers all the way to grown adults make their way to the Ninja Spin to have fun, show off their new tricks, and catch up with their global flatland community. The vibe in the practice area is relaxed and feels like a friendly jam rather than a practice session. The true vibe and meaning of BMX is felt throughout the harbor as old friends are re-united and the ballers of the French Rivera are introduced to the art of flatland BMX!

The Riviera Ninja Spin is a two-day event, qualifying on the first day and finals on the second day. The stands are filled all day, as the amateurs and pros lay out their best tricks for a chance to be in the finals. The crowd cheers for each rider as Catfish, the MC of the event, connects them vocally with each athlete. They root for every rider to do their best. After the qualifying is complete, there is a surprise later that evening.

After the dinner hours, the people of Monte Carlo fill the stands again for a spectacular, historical show. Alex Jumelin has organized a highest bunny hop contest, a bunny hop tailwhip contest, and nation vs. nation team battle. These exciting mini battles give the clubbers of Monte Carlo a taste of what’s in store at the finals. The highlight of the event has to be Justin Miller throwing down 18 bunny hop tailwhips in a row! Keep in mind mo one else makes it past two in a row. The crowd is pumped on flatland, and people flood into the bars and clubs of Monte-Carlo, energized and hungry for more the next day.

Saturday around 12 PM, riders are trickling into the contest area, worn from the previous night festivities, but it doesn’t take long after the DJ starts up the music, for the riders to dust off the cobwebs and get pumped for day 2 at the Riviera Ninja Spin! The finalists in each class tear up the floor as the rest of the riders mix in and rub shoulders with the elite of the French Riviera! The riders prove again that flatland is a constant progression. Consistency, originality, and difficulty are sky high these days and the judges have their work cut out for them.

Each class represents well for flatland, the forecast is for rain, but even the sun can’t miss this phenomenal event. The people of Monte Carlo love it!
With a pro purse of 10,000 euro, the excitement reaches new levels as the riders drop their arsenal of tricks at the harbor. Riders are a whirlwind on their bike. The crowd explodes as each rider completes a combo. The top four pros in the finals, face off for first place. Matthias Dandois from France, Adam Kun from Hungary, Justin Miller from the United States, and Martti Kuoppa from Finland take their corners. There is a moment of silence and anticipation as the MC introduces the riders and the DJ prepares the next set of tracks to take us through the grand Finale at the Riviera Ninja Spin.

The music starts and riders unleash. Each combination of tricks tops the next. Everyone realizes they are witnessing the best of best. A rider will rifle off a slew of tricks and just when you think it’s complete…they throw another switch into the mix. It’s not over!!
They keep going, annihilating the scene with a few more bombs.

With a spectacular finish, first place pro goes to France’s boy wonder, Matthias Dandois! However, Hungary’s Adam Kun isn’t far behind. With this, the rally to become the world champion begins again!

Alex Jumelin and the crew at Ninja Spin created a spectacular event, second only the legendary Circle of Balance competitions. Stars and Bars restaurant was a great host, supplying the riders with food and drink and the means to introduce a new exciting lifestyle to Monte Carlo! This contest sets the standard in performance for professional flatland competitions around the world.

Matthias Dandois Peace to audiences
Matthias Peace!
