Re: Chris Pfeiffer Is World Champion!
Congratulations to Christian Pfeiffer! He was surely a deserved winner !!!
Almost no mistakes, unlimited energy and he was ****** all over the place !
AC also is amazingly good with his drifting(best there was !) and his endo 180° jumps and off course his perfekt balance !
The Americans in my eyes deserved a higher ranking.
I thought Alex Flores was going to be in the top 3 with his big variation of new tricks( to us euro's at least !) Borne was also good, and Nick Apex, E-dub and Drastic Dan they had a huge handicap because they couldn't ride their own bikes. But they put on a great show !!!! Loved it !!!
I think the jury was not so very good chosen: only 2 stuntriders on 5 judges !
They didn't understand the American style.(except for the 2 stuntriders of course !)
But anyway made a lot of friends and had good stuntriding fun !!
The event was well organised too, everything was nicely arranged with great respect for the riders ! Congrats for the organizers !

Re: Chris Pfeiffer Is World Champion!
Well we just got back from the 8 hour flight from Switzerland. Im sitting here in the airport in NYC. That was a hell of a trip. The euros are animals. The competition and event was sick. It was indoor with a slab of new asphalt just for us. The competition judging was way different than the US. In the US we look for variety and in Europe they look for technicality. CP was a animal though. So were all the euros. Me, Apex, and Drastic Dan rode a 05 636 which was new for all of us. We got all of an hour of practice each and it was go time. Wish we could of practiced more on it but oh well. Thats the way it goes. Next time we will have our bikes out there for sure. The main thing was that we had fun. It was a hell of a experience for us and if anything we at least have bridged US/EURO stunt riding. It will only get better from here. ANd to all the haters. We were there, we were doing it. Keep on hating and we'll keep on pushing the sport in the right direction which is more than I can say for you.

Re: Chris Pfeiffer Is World Champion!
It would have been nice to have had a bike for Nick, E and Dan that didn't keep taking a crap every 5 minutes, but Kawasaki Europe was fantastic nonetheless. That being said, the organizer did a hell of a job putting this event together. It was the first one, so of COURSE there will be glitches. Judging issues and lack of practice aside: Alex killed it, Nick E and Dan did what they could with what they had and looked good doing it... and eventually had fun, and Borne made a mess of new fans (Marcus LOL).
Lastly, it was great to meet everyone and hang out. There couldn't have been a cooler group of people involved, language barriers or not it was a great time. what more can you say? See everyone at WC 08
I'll post up some pics tomorrow. Matti, I'll email you at the same time.

I had a great time in zurich!
The judging realy sucked in my opinion.. and im sure thats not only my opinion.
But besides that it was great, the organisation of the event was perfect..
Meet a lot of old and new friends, it was realy cool!
I think the best part was the afterparty on saterday.. Mokus was killin it on the dancefloor!
And i hope to see you US guys at stuntwars next year!

Re: Chris Pfeiffer Is World Champion!
Sick time with everyone there. Words can't explain the feeling of riding with all you guys out there on the track. Wish we could've had more times like the practice session we had sunday night after the comp. Sick being able to rock circles with the likes of AC, Joni, Bart, Migu, Jonny and Matti all at the same time.
Thanks for the props from everyone. Eventhough I don't agree with all the judging I still had a killer time going over. Excellent event overall and I am definitely looking forward to going back again.
