Rad Dad hosts a Hitchhiker Juggler contest!

Heres the word from Rad Dad!

I decided to have a Hitchhiker Juggler Contest. I was going to do it for bragging rights but in Celebration of BMX Freestyler 7th Birthday I am going to throw in $20.00 to the winner. John Yull is going to throw in $20 as well. Joe Cicman is throwing in $20.00. Chadwick is throwing in $7.00.

This makes a prize of $67.00!
If anyone else would like to support this contest please get in contact with me at
webmaster@bmxfreestyler.com
Here are the rules.
1. All Hitchhiker Jugglers must be on the flat ground. You can not go rolling down hills.
2. You can not pump your Hitchhiker Jugglers to gain momentum.
3. You must have cranks with pedals because that make a big difference in this trick.
4. All entries must be filmed during the month of July 2011. Your video must show a current date with a newspaper or a phone or date time stamp on video. Older videos can be submitted for bragging rights but will not have opportunity for prize payment.
5. Contest will end July 30, 2011. The winner will be announced July 31, 2011 and the amount of $60.00 will be delivered to your pay pal account. If you don’t have a pay pal account please make one. Cash or Money Orders can not be mailed out.
6. The winner will be the most Hitchhiker Juggler rolling either forwards or backwards rotating either direction. You must land it for the Hitchhiker Juggler to count. Starting from a hitchhiker position going either clockwise or counter clockwise back into hitchhiker is 1 juggle. There will be no counting of 1/2 of a juggles. Your rear tire must not touch the ground until you ready to land. In case of a tie the first person that submited video will be decalred winner.
7. Official Contest entry videos should be sent to webmaster@bmxfreestyler.com Subject: Hitchhiker Juggler Contest.
Big Props to John Yull, Joe Cicman and Chadwick for helping with the rules and adding to the over all prize.

Lachlan Cameron wins Gananoque Flatland Contest 2011!

Gananoque Flatland Contest 2011 from Bikeflip Productions on Vimeo.

“Wow. What a trip. First of all, lets start out with the Town of Gananoque. (Pronounced “ganaknockway”) It’s a small town east of Kingston close to the 1000 Islands. I took off Saturday morning with my brother to the contest. I met up with Reggie (the one running the flat contest) and sessioned with him all day. Most people showed up later that night. The town was celebrating the 60th Anniversary of the boat cruises around the islands so they were offering free cruises. We took off before all the other bikers to reach the boat and sure enough as we pulled up to the dock the boats were Tooting the horns to leave port. So we all ran to the dock and jumped on the boat as they took off. What a Tour! We grabbed a few drinks and enjoyed the scenery. Sunday was supposed to be sunny but it started pouring rain around 1130 and washed the street comp out. But flatland was still alive indoors and we held one of the most laid back contests I’ve ever been to! Everyone Judged each other in a 30 minute Jam circle.

1st Place – Lachlan Cameron
2nd Place – Mark Kuhlmann
3rd Place – Prasheel Gopal
