These are the preliminary invites, and are subject to change before competition begins on July 30th.
CRUSTY TOUR'S HUGE FINALE AT PERTH'S BURSWOOD DOME
A sold out crowd of 15,000 screaming fans witnessed the final stop of the Crusty Demons Beyond the Apocalypse Tour at the Burswood Dome in Perth on the weekend. The atmosphere was amazing and all of the riders responded with their best performances of the tour. Cam Sinclair made it a perfect nine from nine attempts at the double back flip and Ben Fiez also managed to pull of another double back flip on his min bike. America’s Beau Bamburg took out the final whip competition and Bilko claimed top honours in the back flip combination competition with a 360 heel clicker to no hander lander.
All of the Crustys rode with their shirts off in the final trick trains, pulling off all of the biggest tricks in FMX one after the other and causing yet another standing ovation. The American riders and a selection of Australian riders will now head to the USA for the competition season and everyone at Crusty wishes them the best of luck!
BEYOND THE APOCALYPSE TOUR ROCKS ON IN SYDNEY!
The Crusty Demons performed two huge shows at the Acer Arena on the weekend, which was a fitting send off for Australia’s Matt Schubring, who has decided to retire from touring to pursue other interests in the industry.
Once again the crowds at both shows were loud and crazy in showing their appreciation for the Crustys and their amazing performances.
Much to the delight of the crowd, both nights had their thrills and spills. The biggest came on Saturday night when Ben Fiez jumped off mid flight in his double back flip mini bike attempt, which sent him flying into the air and rolling onto the main lander. Thankfully he escaped without any serious injury.
Sincs had another two successful double back flip attempts and Adam Jones pulled out all stops for his last two shows on the tour.
He has now flown back to the US to be there for the birth of his son.
Everyone at Crusty wishes Schuie all the best in his future endeavors.
The Crustys will now make their way to Adelaide Entertainment Centre this Friday June 5th and Saturday June 6th. Great TIX still available through www.ticketek.com.au
BEYOND THE APOCALYPSE TOUR HITS MELBOURNE
The Crusty Demons Beyond the Apocalypse Tour made its worldwide debut in Melbourne on the weekend with two huge shows. Almost 25,000 fans over two nights packed the Rod Laver Arena as they screamed and cheered their way through the mind blowing shows.
The two local riders, Cam Sinclair and Bilko, stole both shows with Cam Sinclair performing two perfect double back flips and Bilko proving he back to his best by pulling off a number of jackhammer back flips and his signature 360’s. Bilko was so fired up he even pulled off a 360 heel clicker on the Saturday night.
Ben Fiez pulled off his first ever double back flip on a mini bike and the final back flip combination train with all riders created a standing ovation on both nights.
The tour will now make its way to Brisbane with a show on Friday May 22 and Saturday May 23 at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre.

CRUSTY DEMONS RIDER 17 YR OLD RIDER LEVI SHERWOOD WINS REDBULL X-FIGHTERS
I cannot believe what I just witnessed. 17-year-old New Zealander Levi Sherwood just won the first round of the Red Bull X-Fighters. In his first major contest, Levi went head to head with reigning X-Fighters champion Mat Rebeaud and emerged victorious. Levi impressed every single spectator in the stadium with his insane extension and one-of-a-kind style. Tonight, Levi made FMX history and there has never been a better time to be a fan of the sport. If I'm not mistaken, Levi is the youngest rider to win a Red Bull X-Fighters event.
Finishing an impressive second place was Eigo Sato of Japan. This wasn't Eigo's first time riding Red Bull X-Fighters in Mexico City, but it was his first time placing in the top three. Eigo busted out all of his tricks with his signature style, but in the end, it wasn't enough to beat Sherwood.
Mat Rebeaud rounded out the top three, with a good run, but not one of his best. We all know what Mat Rebeaud is capable of and tonight, there seemed to be a bit something missing from his tricks. Regardless, Mat killed the course, getting in more hits than most and ending up with a solid third.
I just want to congratulate both Levi and Eigo for putting in such impressive runs and throwing a wrench in the spokes of the Red Bull X-Fighters results. What an awesome event. More to come. I'm going to bed. Adios! For more information, photos and videos check out redbullxfighters.com

In the packed o2 World arena in Berlin he won the IFMXF Whip Contest together with Brody Wilson (USA), And then he did an
amazing qualification run and reached his first IFMXF final.
“Aussie” Steve Mini seems to feel better and better on European ground. In the final he did triple trick-combos, Lazyboy to No-Hand-Landing,
Superflip, Clickerflip and Suicide Flip to 1-Hand-Landing. He ended up 4th, missing the podium only by a few points. This reached Brody Wilson
with perfect extensions and his well-known style. 2nd place went to Brice Izzo with massive flip combos like Shaolin Flip, Tsunami Flip, Superman
Seatgrab Flip and Lazyboy Flip. But even that was not enough to beat Jose Miralles this day. He started a trick firework and did a No-Hand-Flip to
No-Hand-Landing in the Double-up and amazed spectators and the judges.

CRUSTY'S YOUNG LEVI SHERWOOD RIPPING IT UP ON THE CRUSTY UNLEASH HELL TOUR IN NZ..
Right now Levi is touring his native country as a member of the Crusty Demon Unleashed Hell Tour, and he's no new-kid-on-the-block either, as he joined Crusty in 2004 at the ripe age of 14, which is pretty impressive considering most kids that age are the ones cheering on the Crusty Demons from the stands, not jumping 75-foot gaps in front of thousands.
Levi feels right at home riding alongside the Crusty crew, with him saying, "Its a bit like family, you travel and hang out together, and get to know each other pretty well. I've been lucky to ride with some the worlds best and it always makes you want to go out and learn as much as you can. I love riding the Crusty shows as the fans are a lot more enthusiastic than at a lot of the other shows so it pumps you right up. Also riding with the worlds best pushes you as well. For someone who has never been to a Crusty show it's hard to explain how loud the crowd is; it's out of control!"
Crusty Demons pay tribute to FMX legend Jeremy Lusk
Christchurch show dedicated to amazing rider who tragically lost his life this week
The Crusty Demons performed in an emotion charged show in Christchurch(New Zealand) last night
following the shocking news that fellow rider and friend Jeremy Lusk had passed away.
Lusk, who was one of the world’s greatest riders, succumbed to the injuries he sustained from a horrific crash,
whilst performing a back flip Indy seat grab at a competition in Costa Rica on the weekend. He had been fighting
for his life in hospital but the severity of his head injuries eventually overtook him.
The terrible news was received on Tuesday evening and sent a shock wave through the Crusty Demons touring party. Lusk was
known by all members of the group and was a very close friend to a few, particularly American riding buddy Adam Jones.
The crowd of 6,000 inside Christchurch’s Westpac Indoor Stadium rose as one at the start of the show to partake in a minute’s
silence. The stadium was dark except for an image of Lusk on the big screen, which all of the riders looked up to with obvious pain and
emotion on their face. Once the show kicked off all riders performed amazingly and bravely.
The thoughts and prayers of everyone involved in the Crusty Demons are with Lusk’s family and friends at this difficult time.
PRAYER FOR FMX RIDER JEREMY LUSK
RIP Jeremy Lusk
It is with great sadness that we report Jeremy Lusk succumbed to his injures tonight at 11:03pm PST. He was surrounded by his loving Mother and father, Chuck & Gina Lusk, his wonderful wife Lauren, his mother and father in law Lyne & Larry along with his closest Mulisha friends Brian Deegan, Ryan Hagy, Cameron Steele & Erik Apple. He is now with our Heavenly Father and is at peace. We know he is performing sick tricks for all those in Heaven to crowds greater than we have ever seen. We will miss you Pitbull!
Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

CRUSTY DEMONS UNLEASH HELL TOUR 2009 NEW ZEALAND UPDATES
The Crusty Demons Unleash Hell Tour will be the biggest and most extravagant youth sporting event ever to come to NZ.
The Crusty Demons shows are globally acclaimed. Each show will be a huge entertainment extravaganza and will be a rare chance for New Zealand fans to see the world's top Freestyle Motocross riders in action. If you want to see the biggest, craziest tricks in the world, come to a Crusty show.
The line-up includes world number one Nate Adams, X Games gold medalist Adam Jones, world number three Mike Mason, Jim McNeil and Nicky Danielson all direct from the USA. New Zealand's own Luke Smith is sure to provide some insane riding for his home crowd along with Levi Sherwood who is one of the biggest upcoming talents in FMX across the globe.
Also performing are Australia's number one Blake 'Bilko' Williams, with fellow Aussies Steve Mini, Matt Schubring, Joel Balchin, Kain Saul and Cam Sinclair.
Global Action Sports Managing Director, Mike Porra, said that New Zealand Crusty fans will be blown away by this tour which features the biggest FMX stunts ever performed.
'We are so stoked to be bringing this tour to New Zealand. This is the full international show that is a much larger production than 2007 with more ramps, riders, bikes, pyrotechnics and entertainment. It is guaranteed to leave people gasping for breath and is all about getting the adrenaline pumping.'
Fans can expect to see more than 50 different tricks performed at the shows including the most death-defying trick in extreme sport, the double back flip, performed on a 200kg, 250cc dirt bike. Australia's Cam Sinclair will be performing the trick, which has only ever been completed a handful of times in history, only twice outside the USA, and never before in New Zealand. Audiences will also see various back flip combinations, where riders perform various FMX tricks whilst upside down in the middle of a back flip.
The tour will make its way around New Zealand in 2009
