Mike “Hucker” Clark Gets Roasted

February 21, 2014

It always blows my mind how long footage takes to surface from film production companies that aren’t directly involved in BMX. Skuff TV dropped this video of Mike “Hucker” Clark and a ton of others getting down at Gorge Road for Red Bull Roast It about a year ago. Better late than never, right?

“Turn up the heat, we?ve got all the action coming your way from the Red Bull Roast It BMX dirt ride from the legendary Gorge Road Jump park in NZ.
Forty five of the worlds best riders all went off on the schmick course looking to take out the events top honours.
Best rider went to Mike ?Hucker? Clark, Best trick was a tie between George Bolter and Brandon Loupos with Jed Mildon taking out Best line.“
