NIGHT of the JUMPs

I joined Clint Esposito to talk about what went down at NIGHT of the JUMPs opening round of 2025 and in Munich it all came down to the Front Flip with Mincha up against Luc Ackermann. Throw Maikel Melero in the middle and it was a slobber-knocker if ever we've seen one. What are your thoughts on the Real Front Flip versus the Auto-Front Flip? Luc Ackermann landing the first ever Real Frontie at NO...

Pepa Aron made his debut at NIGHT of the JUMPs to join the World Team with Luc Ackermann and David Rinaldo and it started out perfectly for the young Czech rider. But the wheels fell off by the 4th jump (ok - the wheels didn't technically fall off) and Pepa found himself testing out the BigAirBag with a huge crash when he clicked into 1st gear and forgot to shift into 2nd gear. Luckily Pepa go...

Maikel Melero just did something that many would never expect. He let his direct competitor, use and crash his bike not once, but twice in spectacular fashion! Harry Bink needed a KTM 450 for his first ever time at NIGHT of the JUMPs in Munich 2023 and one man rose to the occasion to say 'hey, here's my bike if you need it!' But he did it knowing that FMX is a family and this is someth...

Inside this quick interview before we started the Munich round of NIGHT of the JUMPs in 2023, Marc Pinyol is talking about redemption after his California Roll crash in Berlin and the last time he landed the trick was in 2017. He would go on to land this trick and also something else a little bit special, was the Front Flip in a train with Maikel Melero. Speaking of Melero, Marc said he has a new...

Just before we kicked off the 2023 NIGHT of the JUMPs competition in Munich, we caught up with Brice Izzo for a quick interview and surprised to learn that he was the inventor of the Dead Body Backflip! With so much experience at NOTJ, it was impressive to hear how many competitions he has risked it all for and we hope to see him in years to come!

During his first competition of 2023, Marc Pinyol decided it was time to unleash the Cali-Roll again on an unsuspecting Berlin crowd (and unsuspecting host of our NOTJ Podcast, Steve Sommerfeld). While it didn't go to plan, we managed to catch up with Pinyol during the break and he explained what happened on the Cali-Roll, why he crashed and perhaps what it will take before we see the Inside R...
