Dew Tour Orlando Qualifying!

Jeremy Lusk
We’re out here in Orlando for the final Dew Tour round of the year! Maddo is pre-qualified along with Adam Jones and Bilko (top 3 in points), but Bilko is hurt so that left 8 spots open in the Sunday finals for the qualifiers. Qualifying was this afternoon and the Mulisha dominated the top spots! Jeremy Lusk rode solid and took the #1 spot followed by Beau Bamburg and a motivated Jeff OX Kargola in 3rd for his first Dew tour Finals this year. Also pulling of a spot in the Finals was Derek Garland…and he qualified in 5th! Faisst picked up the 6th spot after battling with an injured knee. Congrats to the crew for kicking ass!

Now we have 2 days of down time until the finals…everyone is relaxing and getting ready to head to XLR8 for the signing tonight, then we might cause a ruckus at some of Orlando’s tourist attractions on Friday and Saturday. We’ll keep ya updated!

Metal Mulisha Signing @ XLR8 Altamonte!

Metal Mulisha Autograph Signing
This Thursday before the Dew Tour, Jeremy Lusk, Todd Potter, Ronnie Faisst, Ox and Derek Garland will be out at XLR8 in Altamonte, FL, hangin’ out and signing some autographs from 6-8PM! Get your ass out there and meet the Mulisha! Need directions?

Also, while supplies last, with a $20 minimum purchase of Metal Mulisha product from the Altamonte or Orlando XLR8 locations, you will get a FREE “Let Potter Ride” t-shirt…just make sure you rock it when you are at Dew Tour! If you didn’t hear already, Potter got fined $5,000 and was banned from the Orlando Dew Tour stop for throwing the middle finger during his final run. We think it’s a bunch of bull shit, so pick up a t-shirt, have Potter’s back and give the finger to the man!

The Carter Fundraiser and Demo Went Off!

Jeremy Carter Fundraiser
The Jeremy Carter fundraiser and demo over the weekend at Envy Clothing went off! Fluffer, Ox, Garland, Cameron Steele and I (web dork) headed up North to Atwater, CA, leaving around 4:30am, with little to no sleep, after going big the night before. We arrived in Atwater at Envy around 6 hours later and the skies opened up with a ton of rain! We were definitely worried that the jump show might not go down.

OxLuckily, the skies cleared, the sun shined up all the rain and we busted out the blow torches to dry the ramps! We have no doubt Carter was looking down and had his part in clearing the weather for his event.

Hundreds of people showed to support Misty (Jeremy’s wife) and son Jaden, pick up some BBQ, deals on clothes, and check the Mulisha FMX demo! Everyone had a great time and we raised thousands of dollars for Carter’s family! HUGE thanks to Darlene and the girls from Envy, Mark Green, Trittler for providing the ramps, Cameron on the mic, all the sponsors, and of course Ox, Fluffer and Garland for signing autographs all day and going big on the ramp-to-ramp!

Misty has a bunch of signed Mulisha boots, jersey’s and gear that she will be putting on eBay soon. When they’re up we’ll post the links so you can score some signed goods and help raise some cash, so keep checking back.

And the Lusk Banner Winner Is…

Jeremy Lusk Metal Mulisha BannerSo 1 week ago we offered up this autographed Jeremy Lusk banner to whoever convinced us they deserved it in the blog comments. Well, we got about 280 comments–way more than we expected! We wanted a true Mulisha fan to win, but also wanted to see a ton of funny shit! Read through the comments, there is plenty of funny shit and we like that!

So…drum roll please…the winner is…13 year old Alan Shao!
Alan’s comment was like a lot of other people’s comments, but Alan posted this sick video that he made of him riding in the woods that made the difference! That must have taken some serious time setting up the camera in all those angles, and the YX80 is sick!

And now the honorable mention section! Each of these winners will get a FREE Metal Mulisha tee of their choice and a pair of Osiris Shoes! Click the name to read their comments.

  • keith - Keith left the first, and arguably the funniest, comment of the whole contest. We almost gave him the win! Lucky for us he didn’t send a video! Keith, we can’t help you with your chronic boners, but we can send you a FREE tee shirt!
  • Nick - Nick was going to use the banner as a “panty dropper” for the chicks. Sorry you didn’t get the banner, but hopefully a fresh new MM shirt will help get the babes panties off!
  • Justin - Justin was all over the blog with tons of offensive, funny-ass comments…we liked the David Copperfield one the best! Justin, you earned it!
  • Josh - Josh is a dumb ass who’s parents think he’s stupid and can’t win anything. They’re probably right about him being stupid, but now he can say he won something–even if it is just a tee shirt!
  • Kathy Loza - She’s a chick. We needed a chick winner and she always leaves blog comments, so her metalmulisha.com loyalty is now being rewarded! Congrats Kathy!

If you didn’t win this time, well, suck it up! There will be plenty more chances to win FREE Metal Mulisha junk in the near future, so stay on the look out!

LG Action Sports - Twitch Repeats!

Twitch
Jeremy Twitch StenbergThe LG Action Sports FMX World Championships is always a good show and always has one of the most difficult and technical course of the year. This year’s course featured a dirt 6 pack, a ramp to dirt double double section, and one stand alone ramp jump. The field of 12 riders consisted of 7 Mulisha riders! The birthday boy, Twitch, came into this event wanting to give himself the perfect birthday present by winning his second LG event in a row. Ox, Potter, Faisst and Cam were eliminated in the first head-to-head round, with Twitch, Lusk, and Maddo moving on. Unfortunately, Lusk and Maddo’s hopes of winning their first LG World Championship would end in round 2. Both were really close but when it’s left up to the judges you never know what they’re gunna do!

Robbie Maddison - TwitchTwitch advanced to the three man finals with Beau Bamburg and Adam Jones. The technical course design limited the amount of big banger tricks, leaving it up to smooth style, tricking on every jump including the smaller hip jumps, and flawless execution…all skills that Twitch has mastered! Twitch threw down a solid run with a good variety of right side up tricks and throwing a flip variation off of each dirt jump in the dirt 6 pack including the hips that go into the big dirt doubles! This gave him the edge over Jones and Bamburg, allowing him to take home his second straight LG Championship! Needless to say, it was one hell of a birthday for Twitch! Congrats!
