Medal Mania at X Games 17

Gronamo — Mon, 01 Aug 2011 18:21:18 GMT

The Nike 6.0 BMX duo of Garrett Reynolds and Dennis Enarson put in some serious work at X Games 17. Garrett continued to dominate the BMX Street event, managing to add a fourth consecutive Summer X gold medal to his collection.

Dennis was right behind Garrett in Street, and pulled some of the biggest moves of the weekend on his way to second in Street. Dennis also worked his creative magic in Park, and scored his second silver medal of the Games.

"I'm out here riding with all my boys, and it's so fun - that's all that matters," said Dennis, summing up the overall feeling from X.

Huge congrats go out to both guys for an incredible week, and best of luck as they head into the Nike 6.0 BMX Pro at the US Open of Surfing in Huntington Beach, CA.

Welcome to the 2011 Nike US Open of Surfing

Gronamo — Wed, 27 Jul 2011 22:00:39 GMT

The Nike US Open of Surfing has a storied reputation for going big. This year will only add to that legacy with more than 500,000 people expected to attend the week-long surf, skate, BMX, music, fashion and art extravaganza.

The 2011 Nike US Open of Surfing will run from July 30 to August 7. All events are FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC or can be viewed live daily at www.usopenofsurfing.com.

Anchored by the world's largest professional surfing competition, the $460,000 US Open is a pivotal point on the ASP World Tour for both the men and women. The men's side will feature a North America ASP Men's Prime event with valuable points on the line right before the dramatic ASP Top 32 cut-off. For the women, the US Open of Surfing will showcase the final event of the 2011 ASP World Title Tour in Surf City this summer. "I'm really excited to be returning to Huntington Beach to try to defend my US Open title," says Hawaii's Carissa Moore. "It's so fun to be competing in front of so many people!" In addition to the high-stakes Mens and Womens divisions, the US Open will feature a grade four men's and women's Pro Junior as well as the Pacifico Nose Riding Invitational - always a crowd favorite.

The action doesn't stop at the shoreline. On the beach, the event will once again host eye-popping tricks from the most talented and diverse crew of riders from across the globe as they skate in a state-of-the-art skate bowl at Converse Coastal Carnage. And, a stellar crew of BMX riders will push the realm of possibility at the Nike 6.0 HB BMX Pro. The runway will be busy on Thursday, August 4 as five of the nation's top high schools will compete for $25,000 in the Hurley Walk the Walk National Championship - the ultimate youth fashion competition. And the US Open Music Stage will host a star-studded lineup of bands that will surely rival last year's Weezer performance in front of 50,000-plus screaming fans. Not to mention the summer Nike Chosen Crew Video Contest will announce the winning crew on Sunday, 8.7.

Couple this with one-of-a-kind retail and brand experiences, more than 100 interactive exhibits, autograph signings, DJs and giveaways, and you have another summer to remember at the Nike US Open of Surfing. Be ready to dive into the madness starting July 30.

Garrett Secures Spot on Dew Podium

nsw_rga — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 00:39:05 GMT

The competition was out of control on the largest BMX Park course in Dew Tour History at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. Garrett Reynolds held it down with his technical expertise to secure a spot on the Dew Cup podium for the second year in a row.

Garrett went for a 360 no-hander-to-barspin-to-fakie and pulled a bunnyhop 720 drop into a wedge giving him the top spot after the first heat. His second run started off solid, but after falling his first run score of 91.13 would stand. Garrett’s third place finish in the Finals gave him enough points to snag the second place spot overall.

Congrats are also in order for 6.0 teammate Dennis Enarson for snagging fifth place overall in both BMX Park and Dirt.

Dew Tour Championships

nsw_rga — Thu, 14 Oct 2010 16:24:21 GMT

The Dew Tour brings the first-ever Dew Tour Championships to the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, October 14-17. The best skateboard and BMX athletes will battle it out for the coveted Dew Cup, including Shaun White, Ryan Sheckler, Paul Rodriguez, Jamie Bestwick, Brett Banasiewicz and Nike 6.0 riders Garrett Reynolds, Dennis Enarson and Mike Spinner. Las Vegas local Carey Hart and Hart & Huntington will host a freestyle motocross Best Whip competition in conjunction with the Championships, which will feature Nike 6.0's Lance Coury.

Unique to any action sport event out there, the skateboard park course will be held inside legendary concert venue, The Joint by Rogue, on Friday night with a live performance by N.E.R.D on the skate park course immediately following the finals. Saturday features Hart & Huntington’s freestyle motocross Best Whip competition, as well as the BMX park and BMX dirt finals at The Plaza. To close out the 2010 Dew Tour season, Sunday’s skateboard and BMX vert competitions will be held in the middle of the biggest pool party of the summer at the HRH Beach Club Pool. The weekend will conclude with the Dew Cup award ceremony at The Joint by Rogue on Sunday night, where 2010 champions will be honored in skateboard (park and vert) and BMX (park, vert and dirt) along with a live performance by Wavves.

The skate park course at The Joint

Skateboard park proves to be the tightest race for the Cup this season, with only 40 points separating skateboard superstars Greg Lutzka, Chaz Ortiz, Ryan Sheckler and Paul Rodriguez. Leading the charge is Lutzka, who can potentially win his first-ever Dew Cup, with Ortiz, Sheckler and Rodriguez close behind in second, third and fourth respectively. With the level of talent competing it’s anyone’s game.

The vert ramp at the HRH Beach Club Pool

Despite Shaun White’s back-to-back Dew Tour wins in skateboard vert, Pierre Luc-Gagnon has earned enough points to hold his spot at the top of the leader board, allowing him to win it all by placing fourth or higher. But the excitement doesn’t end there. With a two point difference between vert veterans Bucky Lasek, currently seated second, and Andy Macdonald seated third, it’s going to be a tough competition until the end.

BMX dirt jumps

Out on the BMX dirt course, rising star Brett Banasiewicz needs a podium finish to win his first-ever Dew Cup which would make him the youngest BMX athlete to accomplish this feat. Only 30 points behind Banasiewicz is Brandon Dosch with 252 points, with Dennis Enarson in third in the overall standings. With more points on the line at the Dew Tour Championships, the race for the Dew Cup has heated up.

BMX park course

In BMX park, three-time Dew Cup champion, Daniel Dhers, looks to secure a win against defending Dew Cup champion, Garrett Reynolds. Dhers presently sits in first and needs a podium finish in Las Vegas to clinch the highly coveted Dew Cup. However, Reynolds still has the opportunity to come out on top, if he succeeds in battling it out against the likes of Mark Webb, who is also a contender and could potentially win his first Dew Cup.

Jamie Bestwick has the opportunity to make Dew Tour history again at the BMX vert final. If Bestwick places sixth or higher, he will be the only athlete to win every stop of the season, and the only athlete to win six consecutive Dew Cups, marking two back-to-back perfect seasons.

Aside from the skateboard and BMX competitions, Hart & Huntington and the Dew Tour are teaming up to hold the greatest freestyle motocross Best Whip competition the desert has ever seen at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Plaza on Saturday. Legendary moto rider and entrepreneur, Carey Hart, will invite the world’s best FMX and motocross riders for an evening of moto madness including Jeremy ‘Twitch’ Stenberg, Josh Hansen, Ronnie Faisst, Myles Richmond, Jarryd McNeil and Lance Coury.

Tickets for the Dew Tour Championships are now on sale at Ticketmaster, Ticketmaster.com, select Ticketmaster retail outlets, by phone at (800) 745-3000 or at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino box office.

Tickets for the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino’s legendary concert venue, The Joint by Rogue, on Friday, October 15th range from $34 - $63, including a concert with N.E.R.D. Tickets for the Plaza at the Hard Rock on Saturday, October 16th are just $15. Tickets for competitions at the HRH Beach Club Pool on Sunday, October 17th are $25. Tickets for the Dew Cup Awards Ceremony and the Wavves concert at The Joint by Rogue on Sunday, October 17th range from $15 - $20.

Garrett Hits Jackpot at Vegas Interbike

nsw_rga — Sun, 26 Sep 2010 01:54:46 GMT

This year's Interbike Tradeshow in Las Vegas started off with a bang with the S&M, DC, and Shadow Bikes annual rail jam. Twenty of the best street riders in the world battled it out for an all expense paid trip to Hawaii.

Garrett Reynolds dominated the first heat throwing down tricks like bar spin to ice picks, opposite hang tooths down the handrail, and a nollie truckdriver off the ramp. After an amazing heat Garrett made it to the finals, where his ridiculous tricks like a nollie bar to 540 made the crowd go insane. After finally landing a 180 backwards nose manual down a ledge, Garrett won the first place trophy and the Hawaiian getaway.

As if killing the rail jam wasn't enough, later that night Garrett walked away with the Nora Cup award for Best Street Rider of the Year. He was also nominated for Best Video Part of the Year and fellow 6.0 teammate Dennis Enarson was nominated for Best Ramp Rider of the Year.

Huge congrats to Garrett and Dennis and the rest of the 6.0 team for holding it down in Vegas!

Dennis Doubles Down in SLC

nsw_rga — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 20:54:41 GMT

Dennis Enarson backed up his BMX dirt win with an incredible victory in Sunday's BMX park competition at the Toyota Challenge. Nineteen-year-old Enarson now joins BMX veterans Ryan Nyquist and Ryan Guettler as the only riders who have ever won two Dew Tour disciplines at a single event.

Dennis took the lead in his first run after posting a 93.25 in a run that included a 360 tuck no-hander, a Superman seat grab barspin, an x-up fastplant and a lots of opposite tricks like his opposite truckdriver.

Joining Dennis on the podium in 2nd was none other than his 6.0 teammate, Garrett Reynolds. Garrett was showing his trademark technical and explosive riding with his 180 up the ramp to a half cab back down in his first run to earn a 91.24. In his second, he threw down a 360 barspin catch barspin to half cab and then a 720 barspin to fakie.

Daniel Dhers rounded out the top three, and after the SLC finals, the competition is really heating up going into the season finale in Las Vegas. With Dhers in the overall lead for points standings and Garrett eager to defend his title, not to mention a hard-charging Enarson, as well as a field of talented riders hungry for the Dew Cup, it could be anyone’s game next month at the Dew Tour Championships.

People's Republic of BMX

Garrett Reynolds, Dennis Enarson, Alex Kennedy and Jason Phelan made the trip to score some X Games medals, shred Shanghai/Beijing and ride with the locals as part of the Stoked Tour.

Dennis Makes Podium 6.0 HB BMX Pro

Dennis double whipped the long box, landed a barspin cannonball and nailed his tailwhip transfer to the wallride. On top of that, he downside pedal stalled on the wallride fence. Enarson’s insane bag of tricks helped him snag third place and a check worth 10G’s.

Garrett Throws Down at 6.0 HB BMX Pro Qualifiers

corynasorin — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 16:35:39 GMT

Just when you thought that there was enough commotion in Huntington Beach surrounding the US Open, Nike 6.0 brings in the HB BMX Pro contest. With a prize purse of $100,000, it is guaranteed that riders will be throwing down. Thursday marked the start of the contest and the first qualifier round of two.

Jeremiah Smith and Brandon Dosch battled it out for the top qualifying spot, but it was Garrett Reynolds that took the cake. His second run was definitely the standout with a batch of the hardest 270’s you can think of: 270 no-hander to barspin, 270 tailwhip, and a nollie to 270 barspin. He also nailed a sweet truck (360 barspin) to table over the big box and a 540 barspin to barspin. He slid into first by .25 of a point.

The top five finishers from this qualifier round along with Friday’s qualifiers advance to the prelims on Saturday to ride against the top five finishers from last year’s finals. The riders that make it through will battle it out on Sunday for their share of the $100,000 prize purse.

To stir it up a bit more, 6.0 will be hosting a High Air challenge on Saturday at 10:30am PST.
