Hold onto your hats, Red Bull X Fighters is coming to town! After staying true to the motto "Everything's Bigger in Texas" in 2008 with a brilliant aerial rodeo show set on a massive course, the world's best FMX riders are set to return to the Wild West with guns blazing for a high-octane showdown after the scorching sun sets on Saturday, June 27.
Last year saw Jeremy Stenberg (USA) battle it out in a spectacular final with Mat Rebeaud (SUI) in front of a sold out crowd of 20,000 fans at the Historic Forth Worth Stockyards. But Stendberg had to concede defeat to the Swiss star, who pulled an incredible Superman Backflip Indie over the 120-foot gap and claimed his first-ever win on American soil. Rebeaud dominated the Series and went on to capture the overall championship.
In 2009, the riders will return to the Stockyards with even bigger tricks and greater inspiration and an enthusiasm that can only be described as "Texas sized!"
Created back in 2001, the Red Bull X Fighters concerpt has grown to become the biggest and most respected freestyle motocross tour on the planet, featuring the world's best riders throwing down mad tricks in stunning locations across the globe. The 5 stop world tour that is scheduled to rock the USA, Canada, Mexico, Spain, and England in 2009 is the culmination of a truly unbelievable success story. It's going to be one hell of a season as the best riders in the world meet again at the Red Bull X Fighters to take FMX to the next level.
