Get a look at what went down at the annual ACT Jam down in Australia!

The footage from this years ACT Jam down in Australia is starting to roll in. This annual even put on by the guys at Back Bone BMX is 3 days of amazing riding and good times at different parks and trails. This video that Murli Dhir put together is filled with 10 minutes of footage from the Pros to the locals, along with a good look at just how many people turn out to this event during the first two days of parks. So good. Hit play and enjoy, and expect to see plenty more from this one soon!

“This was the first ever ACT Jam I’ve been to. I decided to make a video because I figured this is one of the biggest things in Australian BMX. I’ve never made something like this but I’m pretty stoked on all of it. The weekend was incredible and I don’t think the video does it justice. I missed out on someone doing a 900 air (I think it was a guy called Mini) but yeah that happened. I also didn’t get to film the Dirt jumps on the last day but this is what I managed to produce.

Check out riding from a bunch of bloody good riders including: Cody Pollard, Dylan Lewis, Jason Watts, JIMMY, Chris James, Alex Hiam, Chris Harti, Jacman Hinss, Jake Wallwork, Boyd Hilder, Jayden Fong, Denby Chandler, Zachary Hutera, CHOWGY, Josh Dove, Tyrone Edwards, Chris Nicol & many more.

To the guy who attempted to flip bar/tbog Weston’s spine multiple times, you are honestly insane. To send that trick again and again after huge slams, you are incredible man.

Thanks to:
Backbone BMX for the whole weekend, Jack Spooner for driving and being an all round maddog, Dom for helping us with locks and telling us where some showers were and all the people there for making it one of the best weekends of my life.
