PRO-X 2009

Cape Town was alive with excitement this past weekend (7 – 8 February) as the Mother City played host to her most enthralling event to date – The Pro-X Extreme Games 2009. Hosted by Recked Industries, in association with Resolution, Pro-X took extreme sports to a new level transforming a vacant V&A Waterfront parking lot into a sports arena like no other.

The seldom used Waterfront canal was carved-up by wakeboarders performing flips and spins, off the custom built kickers and rails. Enthralled, and often drenched, spectators had front row seats as they lined both sides of the canal as well as an overhead view from the bridge.

Skateboarders and rollerbladers brought life back to solid ground as they performed radical tricks on a half pipe and weaved in and around spectatorsperforming rails, 360’s ollies, reverts and heel-flips.

Audiences were stunned by the delicate aerial skills perfected by the trail bike riders as they balanced and hopped from log-to-log, along the narrow wooden poles that were laid out along their route.

The totally insane BMX riders shredded up a dirty track consisting of ramps, hills and burns constructed from possibly the most exclusive of Camps Bay clay and bone breaking concrete. These extreme riders totally rocked the crowd as they performed their technical tricks of spins, tail whips and flips that amazed the packed crowds and left them cheering for more.

The highlight of the weekend had to be the image of the Freestyle Moto-X riders flying through the sky. With Table Mountain as the backdrop, it was the perfect setting for the country’s best riders to show off their internationally recognised skills, with back flip combinations and all sorts of death defying tricks, performed at a height of 15 metres above the ground. With no margin for error these professional riders knew exactly how to send the crowd into a frenzy.In addition to the death defying displays of speed, tricks and whips Pro-X delivered a killer line-up of SA bands performing live on stage and providing the soundtrack to these most Extreme Games.

Two days of extreme sports and extreme entertainment with not a disappointed person in sight as everyone left exuding an excitement that only extreme can provide. This year’s Pro-X was definitely not to have been missed – but don’t worry if you did, next year is going to be massive!
