The
2012 Kia X Games Asia is less than a week away (April 28-May 1) and
California RampWorks is in full gear building the courses for the event. Construction of the Mega 2.0 (formerly the Mini-Mega), Vert Ramp, Street course and FMX jump have been underway since the crew’s arrival in Shanghai on April 16th. Professional skateboard and bmx riders from 30 different countries will start arriving early this week.
Tom Schaar, who just became the first ever skateboarder to land a 1080, will be competing in Mini-Mega and Vert events. He will have a chance to make history again, as being the first to land a 1080 in competition. It’s also heard that Mitchie Brusco will be attending X Games Asia, another young competitor who has been on the brink of a 1080 recently. It will be an event you won’t want to miss. LIVE video schedule is below.
Here’s a sneak peek into what the athletes will be riding and a video of the California RampWorks crew in action.
