 <title>2008 Round2, Suzuki BMX Masters</title>
 <link>http://www.bmxflatlandworldcircuit.com/nc/index.php?itemid=45</link>
<description><![CDATA[ Round2 of the Flatland World Circuit, the BMX Masters in Cologne, Germany took place on July 4th and 5th. As usual it was held in a big party tent on painted OSB wood surface. Never the best surface to ride on, because it is spongy, it was certainly not the worst either. <br />
<br />

<br />
 The Masters organizers tried to make Flatland look even better in the media by building a round fence around the riding area. It was a nice idea for pictures, but it also minimized the riding area for practice and not everyone was happy about that.<br />
 <br />

<br />
 Among the 43 pro riders trying to qualify for the finals, the top ten finishers of the Voodoo Jam were present, too. Would the Japanese Voodoo winner Ucchie be able to repeat his back wheel magic and win again? Would US boy Matt Wilhelm be able to one up his second place finish with his precision spinning? Or would the new comer of 2008, Dominik Nekolny from the Chech Republic jump his front wheel switches to victory? Well, all three of them made the 14 rider final, but none of them was to be in the top three this weekend.<br />
<br />

<br />
 As opposed to Voodoo Jam, the Masters were not held in a battle style format, but each rider had one run only of 2 and ½ minutes to show their skills. Terry Adams made the most of his chance, entertaining everyone with his big tricks as well as his facial expressions, earning him 3rd. Hungary’s hot shot Adam Kun had a great run, pulling many original tricks and switches to prove he is worth second place in a tough final. The win went to a joung rider from England who handled the pressure of qualifying in first place and stayed up there. Sam Foakes not only took first place in Cologne, but also took the lead in the ranking for 2008, just ahead of Ucchie.<br />

 The BFWC and KOG Finals in Tokyo in October will be very exciting and will also determine the winner of the 2008 BMX Flatland World Circuit. Be there to witness some Flatland insanity! <br />

24 years BMX sports in the Cologne Youthpark<br />
<br />
In 1984 the first BMX race took place in the Cologne Jugendpark. The  <br />
track was built with some wooden obstacles by a youth group. This was  <br />
the starting point of a long relationship between the location and  <br />
this kind of sport. since then a minimum of one event has been  <br />
organised every year.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.bmxflatlandworldcircuit.com/nc/media/1/20080423-web_BMXMasters_JustinMiller.jpg">Justin Miller</a><br />
<br />
The youth centre ‘Cologne Jugendpark’ played a very important role in  <br />
the development of BMX freestyle sports in Germany. It was one of the  <br />
first locations, which offered permanent and free practise facilities  <br />
for BMX riders. After several important and successful contests and  <br />
masterships, this year is the 24th anniversary of BMX in the Cologne  <br />
Jugendpark. <br />
<br />
 After German freestyle masterships in 1987, 1989, 1992  <br />
there was the first world championship in 1996. 2000 and 2002 the BMX  <br />
Worlds was again organised in Cologne in cooperation with the  <br />
Jugendpark. Nearly 15,000 spectators and 600 riders from 20 nations  <br />
joined the Worlds in 2002. With the Suzuki BMXWorlds 2004, organized  <br />
by the agency spielbetrieb, it was the 5th time that this important  <br />
event took place in Cologne (therefrom four times in the Jugendpark).  <br />
This event was a total success. Over 550 international top riders from  <br />
27 countries entertained an audience of about 22,000.<br />
<br />
In 2005, spielbetrieb decided to launch the „Suzuki BMXMasters“ as an  <br />
independent and yearly happening event which considers the wishes of  <br />
the riders and the integration of the over the years growed number of  <br />
spectators. The feedback of the riders, visitors but also from our  <br />
partners and sponsors was without exception positive. Around 300  <br />
international top riders from more than 21 nations as well as 12,000  <br />
spectators joined from July 23 to 26 a relaxed and all around  <br />
successful event by blistering heat in the Cologne youthpark. At the  <br />
second Suzuki BMXMasters 440 international top riders from 30 nations  <br />
started in Cologne and enthused around 12,000 spectators.<br />
In 2007, the third Suzuki BMXMasters will take place ...<br />

 <title>The result of Round2</title>
 <link>http://www.bmxflatlandworldcircuit.com/nc/index.php?itemid=37</link>
<description><![CDATA[<b>Matthias Dandois wins Voodoo Jam 2007</b><br />
 After an incredible final battle between Matthias Dandois from France and Terry Adams from the USA it was Matthias who deserved the win of the third edition of the Voodoo Jam in New Orleans. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.bmxflatlandworldcircuit.com/nc/media/1/20070710-IMG_1850.gif">The french young gun, Matthias</a><br />
<br />
 This only 18 years old guy from France ripped it up during the whole weekend; he is certainly one of the most inspiring riders from the next generation flatlanders, pushing the sport in the right direction. <br />
 <br />
<a href="http://www.bmxflatlandworldcircuit.com/nc/media/1/20070710-IMG_1776.gif">Matt in zone</a><br />
<br />
 Further highlights were Raphael Chiquet’s amazing back wheel stuff, all performed in short pink pants, Shintaro Misawa his fresh style and Hiroya Morizaki who was pulling some of the most insane links during practice. Voodoo Jam 2007 was the celebration of the BMX flatland lifestyle as promised, with outstanding riding in amateur and pro plus one of the best vibes ever. <br />
<br />
 Big shout out to Scott Obrien and Terry Adams for making it happen! For those who missed out make sure to visit Voodoo Jam 2008.<br />
