Yesterday was the last stop from Streetmasters. Again new faces showed up, so that was good to see! Too bad i didn't see so much progression from the other riders. I think this was the last competition in Holland, so i hope people got motivated to learn new tricks! Some tight battles went down between Erik & Navid and Milan & Navid. Erik made it in to the final so he had to battle me. I took the win, so the end result was as followed:

Day results:

1. Dez Maarsen
2. Erik Hogers
3. Navid Saleki

Overall result:

1. Dez Maarsen
2. Navid Saleki
3. Milan van Roon



After the contest we went to Ikea for some diner and Wouter took this fun picture!



Now it's time to enjoy the last week, because next week school is starting and i still have to prepare my performance for Holland's Got Talent on the 3th of September. So stay tuned!

So I entered the new season of Holland's Got Talent. The show got taken over by a different TV channel and they invited me to show my skills. I made it trough to the Half Final and i'll be preforming live on the 3th of September! Wish me luck!

Found this video's on my friend Omar his Youtube channel. Check out my run at 3.22 minutes!

Last Sunday was the first round of Streetmasters, the dutch extreme sport series. It was held all the way up north, so we (Me, Bodean and Milan) left in the morning for a 2,5 hour drive. I saw some new faces, so that is a positive thing, now lets hope the riders aren't scared to leave there town for the next stop! The contest started around 3 o'clock and there were 8 competitors. Bodean was MC and judge and did a excellent job! We did a battle format and the crowd really liked it. The final was me against Navid. I pulled some good links on the shitty floor and Navid was having a hard time with it, so I took the win. After that we made a stop at the Burger King since we only survived that day on a croissant and Monster Energy! After we had a small session and then it was time to drive back home! Until the next round!

Result:
1. Dez Maarsen
2. Navid Saleki
3. Milan van Roon

A little bit late report, but better late then never! More than a week ago the BMX Masters 2010 took place in Köln, Germany, after that it was cancelled first the guys from DeepBMX still made it happen!


I arrived Tuesday after a train trip that took a lot longer as it was supposed to be! Checked out the floor and then we went to have a session at the local spot. Next day there was pro qualification. 25 pro riders entered! I had a great run and qualified in 2th place!! After the qualification I had great session with Dominik and Mates from the Czech Republic and with Guelo and Alvaro from Spain! Crazy tricks where been pulled and it was by far one of the best sessions of my life! So great to ride with these guys!


Saturday it was time for pro final! Ten riders advanced to the final. I rode not as good as the day before and ended up taking the 6th place. Matthias rode really good but his final trick was out of time and in the end Adam Kun from Hungary took the first place. The judges where having a hard time deciding who should have taken first place!

The rest of the weekend was great! Had some good sessions! Laughed my ass of with the crazy Spanish guys and ate a lot of kebab! Also got a lot of flat tires:(! Shout out to the guys from DeepBMX and Powerbalance for making this happen! I have been to the masters for 7 straight years and i can't imagine a year without!

Last weekend I celebrated the 10th anniversary of Ish, a theater group I have been working with for almost 4 years! The night was awesome! The event was hosted in one of the biggest clubs in Amsterdam! We did a big show made out of scene's from other shows, that Ish did over the past 10 years. I had a solo performance and the audience loved it, never had so much great feedback! After the show it was time to party! Free beer backstage for everyone that performed, so you know where that was going!? There was a crazy storm outside that destroyed a lot of stuff, but after the party was done everything was cleared and i arrived home safely!



Tomorrow i'll be heading to Cologne, Germany for the BMX Masters! Keep checking the blog for updates!
