CHULA VISTA, Calif., Sept. 3, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FreestyleMx.com, Inc., operator of the world's largest motocross website (www.freestylemx.com) and largest international organizer and promoter of freestyle motocross events, is bringing the best and most exciting freestyle motocross superstar jumpers in the world to the Kansas State Fair.
On Wednesday, September 10, 2008, the Kansas State Fairgrounds in Hutchinson, Kansas, will feature ten of the world's best riders performing incredible jumps and gravity-defying airborne stunts - as they soar 40-feet overhead between two separate sets of take-off and landing ramps 80-feet apart - in a two-and-a-half hour competition that challenges even the very best.
You've seen freestyle motocross on TV, but nothing compares to the thrill of seeing these superstars in action, up close and personal. Watch as they roar up the ramps and launch their powerful 250cc motorcycles into the most amazing aerial stunts ever seen, including the "Superman," Rock Solids, Multi-Backflips, No-footed Nac-Nacs and the famed back-flip "Kiss of Death" (to name but a few).
Superstar featured riders, like X-Games Gold Medalist "Mad" Mike Jones and X-Games Silver Medalist Jeff "Ox" Kargola (the bad boy of the "Metal Mulisha"), will be soaring high and truly risking life and limb with every breathtaking jump.
In addition to high-flying dirt bikes, fans can pick-up some sponsor "swag" and score autographs from their favorite superstar riders at the awesome Boost Mobile "Spider" tent.
So mark your calendar and bring the kids. It's fun and excitement for everyone at the Kansas State Fair - "It's a wild ride, baby!"
