LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - August 8, 2007) - High definition cameras were rolling when
some of the biggest names in freestyle motocross were unleashed at two of
the best freeriding locales for a pair of wild, no-ramp contests. Produced
by X Games organizer MXi for Voom Network's RushHD channel, the cameras
captured jaw-dropping, award-winning footage during the first and second
annual FMX RIOT (Rush International Off-Road Terrain) natural-terrain
championships. Destroy Entertainment brings together these freestyle
motocross classics for the first time on a single DVD. Featuring more than
two hours of motocross mayhem, "FMX RIOT 1 & 2" will be available August 7
at all retail outlets and www.rhino.com for a suggested retail price of
$19.95.
"FMX RIOT 1 - DUEL IN THE DESERT" won the "Best Competition Documentary" at
the 2006 Xtremey Awards. Filmed November 2005 in Southern California in the
hills of Ocotillo and the sand dunes of Glamis, the contest features no
ramps and no judges; just eight riders at the edge of civilization going
wild. The riders include Mike "The Godfather" Metzger, Jeremy "Twitch"
Stenberg, European Champion Busty Wolter Rebeaud, and up-coming freerider
Todd Potter of the Metal Mulisha. FMX RIOT 1 captures history in the making
with the first natural terrain backflip competition and will take you back
to the roots of the sport.
"FMX RIOT 2 - SWINGARM CITY" won for "Best Theatrical Competition and Race"
at the 2007 Xtremey Awards and features the first-ever helicopter coverage
of Caineville, UT, the premier freeriding location on the planet. Many of
the world's best FMX riders -- including defending champion Metzger, Swiss
superstar Mat Rebaud, Drake McElroy, Dustin Miller and young gun Todd
Potter -- pushed the performance edge further into the unknown at the
second annual FMX RIOT. The rules of the competition were the same: no
ramps, no judges, just freeriding. Once again, the performances were
breathtaking and adrenaline-pumping set against the most challenging
landscapes in the FMX world.
