Octoberfest Trail Jam

Image
On October 14th , there will be a rad jam happening down at the Adelaide City Trails . The general concept behind the jam is to get more people stoked on riding jumps, which I think is an awesome idea. The whole day will be entirely non-competitive, with fun being the main focus. Sounds like it's gonna be a real awesome day!

Hell on Wheels 'End of Daylight Savings Jam'

Unfortunately, it's that time of year again. Where the days get shorter, and colder, where the shorts and t-shirts turn into jeans, gloves and a jacket. However, it's not all bad; there is the annual Hell on Wheels End of Daylight Savings Jam! Featuring all sorts of radness at Five Dock , it always goes off in the greatest of fashions. Keeping in mind, there is the infamous Xave Koen on the mic, and the 4th edition of Deathbowl! , a wild affair that has reached unprecedented levels of notoriety in the scene. Get there!

Cam White's Hillside Dirt Jam 2012 Highlights Video

Image
Here is another video from Cam Whites Jam 2012. This one is better quality and shows footage from the entire jam. I guess this event it really hard to film everything because you cant see the top half and bottom half together very easily. But the bottom half is where most of the bangers go down. This video gives you a good feel for the vibe of the event so check it out.

Cam White's Hillside Dirt Jam 2012 Run Down

Image
(Pic from Cams Jam 2011)  Cams Jam is done for 2012 and just like the other years this one was amazing. Cam White always put in a ton of work to make sure that it is one of the if not the best dirt comp/jam in the world. The days leading up to the jam had been wet, but luckily on the day of the event it was clear sky's and good weather. But Cam woke up at 6am to fix the jumps that had taken a beating from the rain, after 10 hours of work he was to tired to ride, which was a shame because he would of killed them as per usual. But he was out there all night making sure the jumps were running well for everyone. Now to the riding! There are 3 categories best style, best trick and king of the hill. Its set up so the riders vote for who they think won. This year best style was taken out by Chris Harti who goes so high and with an obvious ton of style. Chris had been killing Cams jam for years so it was awesome to see him take out best style. Best trick went to Jaie Toohey who did a...
