LG World Championships of Freestyle Motocross In Los Angeles
September 26, 2008, 2:03pm
On September 27, the world of Freestyle Motocross (FMX) will focus its attention on the Greater Los Angeles Area, searching for the best, the unsurpassed, the paramount performance of 2008 when the LG World Championships of Freestyle Motocross roars into the L.A. County Fair at Fairplex in Pomona. Fans can enjoy motocross and musical guest FILTER, taking the stage at 7pm.
It’s the sixth consecutive year that the L.A. County Fair has hosted the LG World Championships of Freestyle Motocross (FMX), which last year, in a new head-to-head format, saw four-time LG FMX World Champion and #1 ranked Nate Adams (Phoenix, AZ) dethroned by local resident, Jeremy “Twitch” Stenberg (Santee, Calif.). Riding with a broken ankle, Stenberg thrilled fans and judges with daring flip variations and a virtually flawless finals run. Now, the 2008 LG FMX World Championships awaits. Will an injury-free Stenberg successfully defend his title? Will Adams reclaim the top podium spot? Or, will a new star emerge with a breakout performance? This one-night-only event will answer all these questions and leave fans in awe with its full-throttle, high-air excitement.
