Big air Jam is a radical competition designed to thrill spectators with a high-profile packaged form of off-road bike riding. The riders are pure athletes who have taken the sport of Moto-Cross to the next level of entertainment and perform acrobatic stunts over ramps between 50 to 80 feet long. The machines are modified Moto-Cross bikes with stiffer suspension designed to cope with the hard landings. The motorcycles also have a number of other modifications essential to equip them for the strains and stresses of this extreme sport. Riders frequently sail between ramps at heights approaching 40 feet. The further the jump and the higher the altitude, the longer the period of “negative G-force” and the more ambitious the resultant antics.

Freestyle Motocross History
Freestyle Moto-X was established in the mid 90’s and in the intervening years has grown into one of the worlds most popular extreme sports with a huge audience world-wide. It began as a demonstration event at the 1998 Cross Games in the United States and was an instant success. Since then the sport has grown dramatically and attracted many professional Super-Cross and Moto-Cross riders with its glamour and instant recognition factor. Initially organise on dirt surfaces with man-made dirt ramps, the sport quickly evolved with larger metal and wood fabricated ramps providing a more consistent and dramatic launch platform. The ease of assembly and transportation of the man-made equipment meant that the sport could be brought to the audience thus maximising spectator attendance. A Freestyle show can be held in a Supermarket car-park, on a football field or even outside your average high-street shop. The corporate appeal and commercial advantages of this ease of access has lead to Freestyle becoming a powerful marketing tool. In its short life span, the sport has grown tenfold with new and more radical stunts projecting the sport to new heights year on year. The X Games is just one of the many successful Freestyle series now evident around the globe. This infectious sport has caught the imagination of arena promoters and entertainment management companies world-wide. Freestyle Moto-Cross is truly an International spectacle. The world of true Moto-Cross owes much to Freestyle and the hard work and determination of a few dedicated riders. The once elusive Moto-Cross 360 degree backflip existed only in rider's minds before Carey Hart made history with a near stick at the 2000 Gravity Games. Now the backflip is thrown at will by a handful of riders and will certainly find itself in the repertoire of more riders in the future
