Thanks to Profile Racing.

Thanks to Eric “Easy” Fabrisiak, Steve Caro, Dillon Leeper, Bobby Proctor, Jeff Maurer, Chad Degroot, Luis Pinzon, Chris Childs, Eric Holladay, and Kyle Kisling for motivation and assistance with filming.

“FISE 2019 Pro Dirt Qualifying got off to a windy start today and after about an hour of waiting around to see if the wind chilled, the decision was made to postpone qualifying until tomorrow. But despite the windy conditions, some riders were sending it anyway so 500 Euros were put on the line and a Best Trick Jam was declared. When it was all said and done, Kaine Mitchell rode away from a frontflip whip and clinched the cash. ” – Our BMX
