In front of 17000 FMX fans at the Battersea Power Station it was Nate Adams who won in all. After winning in Texas, coming up 2nd in Madrid Nate Adams destroyed his opponents here – and at exactly 22:48 Uk time he crowned himself to the new king of FMX. It was thrilling and fantastic night packed with unbelievable freestyle motocross action. And in a final that maybe was the on the highest trick level and most perfect execution ever Nate Adams beat young gun Levi Sherwood. Maddo lost his chance for the title in the semi final due to a technical problem with his bike. Mat Rebeaud crashed in the quarter final but – thank god – he walk out on his own.
So Nate Adams got finally where he belongs: on the top of the FMX World. Congratulations!
