FMX is getting HUGE in North America, Europe, and elsewhere, but it is still a very minor sport here in Japan, even though the #3 ranked rider is Japanese: Eigo Sato. They still have sick riders here though, and here are a few highlights from the recent Go BIG! comp held in Shikoku. Tones more pics in my FMX Gallery if you like these.

Kenny taking a break with a "Lazy Boy"

Eigo Sato with the Backflip Cordova. He holds this soooo long.

    Great shots! Watch out for cut off body parts. Part of the rider's foot in #3 is cut off.
