Mat Rebeaud Back In Egypt!
Wednesday 28 April 2010
Photos and story courtesy FreeriderMX
Unit athlete Matt Rebeaud has had a tough 8-months, which started with what looked like a horrific accident at the final London X-Fighters round last year. Riding towards the ramp in his run with a flat tyre Mat didn't gained enough speed to make the landing and slammed into the back side of the dirt down ramp. Mat was lucky to walk away with only a big hole under his lip and a big headache. Looking at the footage of his crash it could have been a lot worse! Then preparing for the 2010 season at he Red Bull compound in California Mat crashed again while trying an Underflip One Handed and was rushed to hospital with a compressed lung and fractured right arm, not the start the former X-Fighters champion would have hoped for. Now Mat is gearing up for round two of Red Bull X-Fighters in Eygpt, and he is still in with a fighting chance to win the series as each rider gets to drop their worst round.
Red Bull recently put together this clip of Mat talking about his accidents and return to the X-Fighters series. Check it out 'here'

BLOG: Joe Sheppard Off To China
Wednesday 28 April 2010
It's been a pretty quiet event wise since I got back from the farm jam, but between work and family I've been staying pretty busy. I got a chance to do a few 75ft flips into Schuies foam pit, and first chance I get I want to knuckle down and get them going to dirt.
I had three nights of demos with Ryan Apps at Toowoomba show a couple of weeks ago, which was fun apart the wind... which sucked. My Fiance Casey and daughter Scarlett got to come out and watch though which was cool, as they can't usually come because it's hard to travel far with Scarlett. She had a good time watching daddy ride and checking out all the animals! She's definately getting a peewee for Christmas...
Next up for me is a trip to China next week for a demo at a round of their mx championship. It's always a pretty crazy experience over there, plus I'm going with Jim Bartle and Jesse Fairfull who have never been before so we should come home with some cool story's! I'll make sure I have heaps of pics for my next update.
Cheers
Joe
