Ski Jumps
The best thing about riding a motocross track is the elevation change. This gives you more dimensions to the track and allows you to “spice up” some obstacles. One of these obstacles is the ski jumps. Most of the time, you find these jumps right before a downhill and there is no real lip or [...]

RJ Says - Speed or Consistency?
After the Anaheim II Supercross, it’s looking like a four man race for the coveted title of 2012 AMA Supercross Series Champion.
With everybody still healthy and strong, this is shaping up to be one of the most competitive years in Supercross ever. Most seasons in the past the title has come down to one or two guys - but right now there is a major the contrast in the consistency of Chad Reed and Ryan Dungey versus the brutal speed of Ryan Villopoto and James Stewart.

Kevin Windham out for remainder of Supercross season
GEICO Honda rider Kevin Windham will miss the rest of the Supercross season after suffering several injuries during a crash Saturday in Houston.
Attempting to qualify for the Main event, Windham was in a pitched battle with James Stewart during a Heat race when he came off his CRF450 at a high rate of speed. As a result of the accident, Windham dislocated his right shoulder and sustained damage to his left wrist, left thumb and right hip.
"I've definitely got a dislocated shoulder so that ends my season right there," Windham said. "I've had my wrist examined by two doctors; one said it was broken and the other one said it's not. It's very swollen and black and blue so it's hard for them to tell. I'm going to see another specialist (Tuesday) and have an MRI done to see exactly what's up. We just need get it fixed properly.
"I can't move my left thumb at all and my hip hurts. I'm not really sure what's going on with either of them at the moment. I'm basically hurting all over."
The 34-year-old Windham, the oldest competitor on tour, was having another solid season before his accident. He has two podium finishes to his credit and had been a part of the top five all year.

Kiel Jump and Race 2012
Kiel is a special for us at FMX4Ever. We have been returning to the Sparkassen Arena since 1997, when Jimbo rode his first supercross there. In 2002 he finished second. Since 2006, the event has been combined with FMX. That year was Gilles last supercross and first FMX show with the team. This year, we rolled up with a double wide landing and showed off with some side by side action.

RJ Says: Phoenix Supercross 2012 thoughts, Los Angeles Supercross preview
First off, I want to congratulate KTM, Roger De Coster, and Ryan Dungey for KTM's first Supercross Class main event win. It's huge. I know of all the work they have done in the past few years in developing winning machines, teams, and more. Look at what they did with Stefan Everts and Pit Beirer in developing the 350 SX model - two world championships so far with Antonio Cairoli.
KTM in America has been working on the new 450 that Ryan races. It's a new effort, on a new bike. For Ryan Dungey, his win last Saturday in Phoenix goes a long way in many areas, but I feel the most important is that it adds confidence to the team and Ryan.
FMX4Ever Goes 3/3 at X-Jam
After 3 three weeks of non-stop beach parties, pool parties, hammam parties, roof top parties, a ton of laughter, a bit of mayhem and a spice of FMX, our animals finish off their third and final show at X-Jam in Turkey. If you weren’t there, check out what you missed.
