7.11.2009 NIGHT of the JUMPs Ostrava
2nd day of the NIGHT of the JUMPs Ostrava with the 10th round of the FIM Freestyle MX World Championships. Again the crowd freaked out, when the 11 FMX athletes battled for the finals. The riders thanked the audience by pushing the level even higher. William van den Putte pulled a Deadbody to No-Hand-Landing, but even did not make it into the finals. Steve Mini crashed his first trick due to a damaged engine. So all the riders from yesteray reached the finals, but now with Libor Podmol laeding the qualifying ahead of Remi Bizouard.
Podmol also dominated both side contests. After winning the Race and Style he jumped over 10 meters in the Highest Air.
Local boys Libor Podmol and Petr Pilat ruled the finals with a flip firework, Pilat hammered Candybar Flip, Switchblade Flip, Shaolin Flip and Can Underflip in the air. Podmol pulled Tsunami Flip, Cliffhanger Flip, No-Hand Flip, Underflip Indy and first time ever a not extended Superman Seatgrab Flip. Libor rode hard for the first place, but was a bit nervous and made small mistakes. So he gave the win to Remi Bizouard, who looked smooth and perfect in every trick. Brice Izzo jumped on 3rd place of the podium.
With his second victory in Ostrava World Champion Bizouard made a huge step to defend his title and now leads with 27 points to Miralles. The Spaniard has to be aware of Libor Podmol, who is only 1 point behind and still has chances to win the World Championship. In the manufacturers ranking Yamaha still is on top of the field, followed by Suzuki.
The premiere of the NIGHT of the JUMPs in Ostrava was a big success. 13.000 spectators wanted to see the world’s best FMX riders in their fight for the World Championships. Upcoming weekend the riders will meet again at the NIGHT of the JUMPs Zagreb for the next rounds of the FIM Freestyle MX World Championships.
