Stephen Murray made Block Jam 3D a huge success. In 2004 Block Jam
saw over 50 pros riding the GT Half Pipe, Street Course and Dirt
Jumps. Gary Laurent (who grew up in the AV but move to Vegas to do
the Globe of Death in the Rivera Splash show) brought his
show ramps and tore it up. Other notable pros
included Robbie Miranda, Todd Lyons, Austin Coleman, Mike Day, Cesar
Flores, Bo Wade, Coco Zurita, Alan Foster, Robbie Morales, Ben
Snowden, James Dakis, & Brian Martin.
Block Jam 4 should see plenty of media coverage from the bike
magazines as well as video coverage.
This year we expect
double the pro turnout and over 10,000 spectators through out the
day. Riding will be pro and invited athletes only. Confirmed
athletes include: Stephen Murray, Bo Wade, Cesar Flores, Austin
Coleman, Mark Laue, Mark Keel, Dennis Martin,
Thomas Hancock, Brian Martin, Mike Day, Ben Snowden & too many
more to list. We have built
the sickest dirt section to date with 3 huge hips one with a built
in wall ride, 6 huge sets of doubles and a rhythm section. Street
course provided by GT, Team Soil, & Real Ride.
Specialized Bikes will be bringing their huge demo trailer full of
bikes that you can test ride on our Block Shop test track. This is
