Graz, 17th April 2009: On Friday 12 of the worlds best FMX rider met at the Schwarzlhalle in Unterpremstaetten/Graz for the 3rd contest of the NIGHT of the JUMPs - FIM Freestyle MX World Championships. After his problems in Berlin World Champ Remi Bizouard stroke back and won with an impressive run ahead of US-Boy Brody Wilson and Spain’s Jose Miralles.

This year the track in the Schwarzlhalle was really tough and the riders had to give their best. It had five ramps, the biggest with a 26 Meter gap. And for the first time ever a Race and Style cours was integrated in the track. In the qualification local hero Martin Schenk started with three backflips. German Hannes Ackermann had to end his run after problems with his bike. Freddy Peters from Berlin did a solid run and came on 9th position. Gilles Dejong crashed hard into the landing hill. Fortunately he got no injury. Fabian Bauersachs premiered with a Superflip, but missed the final on 8th place. Even Fredrik Johansson did not make it into the final this time. This was up for Massimo Bianconcini, Brody Wilson, Libor Podmol, Brice Izzo, Jose Miralles und Remi Bizouard.

After the qualifying the Race and Style-contest started. Two riders fought with Speed and Tricks against each other. Fredrik Johansson won this contest. Highest-Air went to Gilles Dejong with 6,50 Meters.

First rider in the final was Massimo Bianconcini, who did massive Whips and flip combos, which put him on 5th position. Brice Izzo crashed at his 2nd trick and come only on 6th place. Brody Wilson impressed with a firework of tricks and flipcombos and put himself onto the podium. But today Vice World champion Libor Podmol could not beat Wilson. He had problems with his bike and ended up 4th. Respect for Jose Miralles, who had to fix a new bike after the Race and Style-contest. His KTM broke while racing and within 15 minutes he prepared the new one. With the other bike he did a good run, but was not able to win this day. Remi Bizouard took the victory with flip firework ahead of Brody Wilson.

After the 3rd contests of the FIM Freestyle MX World Championship Spain’s Jose Miralles leads with 54 points ahead of both French riders Remi Bizouard (45 points) and Brice Izzo (42 Points). Next points will be given tomorrow on the 2nd day of the NIGHT of the JUMPs in Graz.
