    Well the Hamilton show was really good . Huge crowd ,apparently the biggest of the 17 shows they've done.
    Levi and Travis together was a nice theme.
    The BMX guy doing new double backflip hang thingys was impressive too.

    I went to the Hamilton show and it was great, but the biggest of the 17 shows so far, really? I bet they say that at every venue ...

    it is true i would say, in aussie they ran mainly indoor venues with 2 or 3 nights, prob seated around 10000 poeple,

    North Habour had around 22k, and they had 25k last night, wellington had 18k

    I was in Hamilton last night and by gosh everyone coming out of the show was totally amped.
    BUT I just gotta ask ONE question of all those that went.
    What did the "lucky" girl who got to do a jump/flip with T man look like and what did she say?
    I just kinda wonder if she's a ringer

    We went to Hamilton as it clashed with the rugby 7's in Wellington when it was on in Auckland.

    I know that they do possibly hype up "new tricks" etc but there is not a guaranteed result from doing these so on that basis I think that they rocked!

    The trick trains were great and to see Levi Sherwood live in NZ up against Travis Pastrana was worth our tickets. The crowd was totally amped and was pretty big! gotta love the "tron" and their love of Motorsports....the supercross held there in 2009 was 100% better than the one in Auckland.

    After reading these threads I feel about the evil vibes I was sending the crowd girl!! We did wonder but it is part of the show so again part of the entertainment.

    I have been to crusty's and now this...love them both...plenty of love to go around!

    Early opening might be for the VIP ticket people since they do a little pre-show interview with them, at least they did in Aucks.

    It started about 6:30pm in Hamilton, but it does take quite a while to get that many people in the stadium Ticket said to be there by 5:45pm.

    Honestly the first half was pretty shit. Could have easily fallen asleep. They really turned it on with the trick train but the BMX'ers and MTB'ers really saved the show. Seen all the FMX tricks before so kinda hard to be impressed. Double backflip and body varial were really the only good ones. Except of course for the rubberkid Levi Sherwood. He is awesome to watch.

    Jolene did sweet fuck all and wasn't even at the signing.


    Probably didn't help that we were seated fairly low on the far side of the stadium so it made it harder to see and really get into it. Wish they turned off the fkn music so we could hear the bikes as well!

    We paid the extra for the main stand tickets as been to similar events and with this type of thing one side always gets more of the action....sorry to say but the bikes sounded great!

    Must admit was cool to see Jolene do a flip but as you say she had a very very limited appearance....kinda sad in that wanted to see more of what she could do.

    hehe yeah, she didn't have a kiwi accent neither.
    Sounded Canadian to me, maybe yank, but I'd put money on Canehdia.

    If you think about it, I can't imagine them risking picking a stranger to do that kind of trick with.... it would be so much safer with someone practised.
    I mean, the chance for her to screw it up BAD is just way too high!
    They did an awesome job of the acting with it, but there is no way she wasn't a plant.

    Show was okay, I enjoyed it, but I would have rather seen more FMX stuff than all the other crap.
    It was funny the randoms stuff they pulled out, like the boogie board... and chilli bin. But I think they had too much BMX and not enough FMX!

    The chains were awesome, some of them got so close it was freaky to see, and the tricks I did see were wicked to see in person.
    But more more more please!
