It’s not important how many time you’ve gotten your ass handed to you in the pit, it only matters how you use your SWORD. “Zang!”

The Rockstar Metal Mulisha FMX Team headed out to Camp Pendleton, the home and training facility of the US Marine Corps. The guys wanted to put on a huge show for the troops and give back to the men and women who protect our freedom everyday.

Last Friday they rolled up next to the base beach and set up ramps with Derek Garland, Taka Higashino, X Games Best Whip Silver Medalist Todd Potter and X Games Best Trick Gold Medalist Jackson “Jacko” Strong.

The team geared up and hit the ramps hard with three live demo’s, pumping out all kinds of huge tricks for the troops, families and fans!

After the show the team had a chance to hang out with some of America’s real heroes, hooking up autographs, clothing and photos! We would like to thank the US Marine Corps for their participation in this event and look forward to many more military demo’s to come. Semper Fi!

This year, Metal Mulisha will have seven athletes competing in six events, including Best Trick, Step Up, Best Whip, Rally and BMX. Among the top storylines as Mulisha prepares to continue its long run of success on action sports’ biggest stage:

“The General” Brian Deegan will look to improve on his silver medal in Super Rally with a brand-new custom Ford Fiesta, which features a black, red and white Metal Mulisha tiger shark design. The much anticipated Rally Racing events will take place in Lot 7, outside of Staples Center, on Saturday, July 30th and Sunday, July 31st. Earlier in the week, Deegan will also compete in Step up on Thursday, July 28th.

Todd Potter will have the busiest week of any Mulisha team rider, competing in Best Whip, where he aims to capture a fourth consecutive gold medal, Speed & Style for the first time in his career, and Step Up.

Looking to make a big impact on American audiences, Australia’s Jackson ‘Jacko’ Strong, has been preparing to land the first-ever front flip in competition during this year’s Best Trick event. In 2010, Mulisha rider and fellow Aussie Cam Sinclair won gold with a double backflip, an honor he’s looking to repeat in 2011. The Mulisha team will be missing another one of its family members during X17. Fan favorite and X Games 16 veteran Jeff ‘Ox’ Kargola passed away in April from injuries sustained while riding in Baja, Mexico. Ox will be honored with a tribute video prior to the Step Up competition on Thursday, July 28th. Metal Mulisha riders and fans will also be wearing memorial Ox tees, which are available at www.metalmulisha.com, benefitting the Jeff ‘Ox’ Kargola Fund.

Japanese rider and fan favorite Taka Higashino is riding for his home country this year, which experienced a devastating earthquake and tsunami in March. Taka has been active in recovery efforts for Japan relief, specifically with the local freestyle moto community. In April, Mulisha created a special Taka t-shirt to benefit the Banzai Fund and Red Cross.

X Games veteran Ronnie Faisst, bronze-medal winner in last year’s dramatic Speed & Style final, is looking to increase his medal count, shortly after breaking his femur on the Nuclear Cowboyz tour.

Brandon Dosch, gold medalist in BMX Dirt on the 2010 Dew Tour, will look to have the same success at BMX Park, which kicks off on Thursday, July 28th at the L.A. Live Event Deck.

Mulisha Nation fans can get up-close-and-personal with team riders, who will be signing autographs from Thursday through Sunday, both at the Ford Tent and X Fest in L.A. Live. The brand has also partnered with Ford for an ‘I Win! You Win! competition,‘ where a Mulisha gold medal will win one fan a Mulisha-wrapped Ford Fiesta.
