AFMXA Competition

Bryce was in his first freestyle motocross competition! He had to submit a video and get accepted, so he did and he was! He has been really excited about it and practiced a lot while he was preparing. We all went out and watched the competition and it was really fun. Many of his friends came to watch and even Todd, Grant and Sawyer, drove out so that was nice. It was super nervewracking to sit in the stands and wonder what I was about to see, I still get nervous thinking about it. He decided he would volunteer to go first and get it over with I guess, so when he came over that first jump, my heart jumped to my throat and the competition began!


He did some great tricks and certainly impressed the crowd. There were 18 riders in his division and most did a really good job. I thought he certainly had some competition but the judges comented on how smooth he rode and his landings were solid. After the 18 had two runs each they narrowed it down to half and Bryce made the finals! They had another run after that and then they annouced there was a tie for first and second. It wasn't Bryce so we then figured the very best he could get would be third. The first and second place had a run off they their fate was determined and then they annouced that BRYCE HUDSON had taken third place!!!
That was so exciting! Wow, we were so happy for him and he was just so pleased as well. It was nice to just see something go your way for once! His little posse of followers cheered him on and it was a great victory!

They then took five and had them do them "biggest tail whip" competition--it was narrowed down to the top two and the judges couldnt decide...it was between Bryce and another rider!!! They had a jump off and Bryce went and did awesome, then the other rider had something wrong with his wheel so they gave it to Bryce! woohoo! Bryce's was better anyway, but the other guy had to feel bad....he did a really good job as well.

It was a really fun and exciting day for him and then that night they had a big award ceremony at Pala Casino. He got to go up on stage and get his award and shake hands with the "big" guys in motocross. Fun day......
