Avenger won the freestyle during the first show Saturday. Both trucks did a really good job. Avenger was the first to hit the huge dirt ramp from both sides.

Brutus had big air and some hard landings

After a nice sky wheelie, Avenger landed on the front wheels doing a crazy stoppie

Even if the Arena was not that big, there were a lot of crashes during the weekend. Grave Digger crashed during the first Wheelie contest and Safe Auto too. For his second Wheelie contest, Digger got stuck on the cars stack and the track crew had to push it to make it go back on his wheels
