Last weekend during the Monster Energy Speed and Style contest in Las Vegas, there was a best trick contest that went down where the guys were able to try and throw down their best moves anywhere on the course from the roll ins to the jumps, transfer lines, etc. Here’s a look at what went down in this laidback contest! Check out more highlights from the actual contest below!

“You can check the full highlight vid of the Monster Speed & Style event, but I figured everyone wouldn’t mind a raw cut of the Best Trick Jam. Not the biggest crew of riders, but the unique course opened it up to some atypical “best tricks” that you won’t find at normal dirt events.” – Our BMX
