Successful Guinness World Record Attempts NIGHT OF WORLD RECORDS WRAP - MADDO SMASHES 350ft Australia’s own Evel Knievel, Robbie Maddison, has once again written himself into the Guinness Book of World Records after successfully jumping a death defying distance of 351feet on his Honda CR500 at the Crusty Demons Night of World Records presented by Rockstar Energy Drink at Calder Park in Melbourne, adding an astonishing 29 feet to his own record set in Las Vegas last New Years Eve. Defying gravity - and logic - Maddison reclaimed his world title after rival Ryan Capes (USA) jumped 324 feet to better Maddison’s previous record of 322 feet and hold the record momentarily before the Australian rose to the occasion and set the new world record on his third attempt. Maddison hit the ramp for his final attempt at over 100mph (165km) and rose more than 70 feet in the air before making a safe landing back to earth for a record shattering jump. “I can’t explain how amazing it is to smash my own world record in front of a home crowd,” said an elated Maddison. “I have been doing huge jumps and breaking personal records in training this week so I knew that I had it tonight, but nothing could of prepared me for how great this feels. “All my family and friends are here and the crowd was awesome.” The Australian was congratulated by American Challengers after deafening acclaim from the crowd, and said the opportunity to square off against competitors of equal calibre had been incredible. “It was always going to be exciting with the jump off situation, Seth is a mate and a legend of the sport and Ryan is renowned as a long distance jumping specialist. The Aussie crowd got me over the line,” he added. Capes fell short of the 351 mark, hitting the down ramp to complete a 324 foot effort. While visibly disappointed, he said it was the greatest challenge he had ever faced and to hold the record even just for a moment was satisfying. “I am looking forward to a rematch in the USA in the next twelve months it was Robbie’s night tonight,” said Capes. Enslow set a personal best of 301feet and ten inches achieving his long held goal of breaking the 300 foot barrier. “I am stoked, I may not have claimed the World Record but I am really happy with my result, that is the best I have jumped,” said Enslow. History was created when the first ever three man jump off for the world record took centre stage despite the terrible weather conditions endured all week. The show went ahead and after some minor changes to the schedule to compensate for the conditions nine records were attempted with six written into the history books. The official Guinness record topped off an extraordinary week for Maddison who broke the world record on four separate occasions in training during the week, reaching an incredible 376 feet by the day before the show.

MARCH 27TH, 2008
MARCH 27TH, 2008 Australia’s own Evel Knievel, Robbie Maddison, this afternoon smashed his own world record that he set on New Year’s in Eve in Las Vegas this year, with an astonishing “I have been saying all week how far I know I can jump and it is so good to go out there and prove it today.

MARCH 26TH, 2008 A VIDEO AND NEWS FEED WILL BE POSTED SHORTLY RIGHT AFTER THE BIG EVENT. COME BACK HERE TO CHECK IT OUT! Rivalry's Intensify as Crusty Demons Night of World Records Looms Three of the worlds best Freestyle Motor X riders Ryan Capes (Washington, Seattle, USA), Seth Enslow (California, USA) and Robbie Maddison (Wollongong, NSW, AUS) will attempt to set a new world record for the longest distance ever jumped on a motor cycle at the Crusty Demons Night of World Records presented by Rockstar Energy Drink in Australia on Saturday Night, March 29th All three will be confronting their demons at Calder Park, Melbourne, when they try to further the current record held by Maddison of an incredible 322 feet which he achieved last New Years Eve in Los Vegas, USA. Crusty Demons legend Enslow proved today why he his known as the craziest of them all when he geared up and hit an astonishing distance jump of 198 feet despite extremely strong gusty side winds that swept throughout Melbourne. With no one else willing to jump, Enslow ordered his take off ramp to be adjusted slightly to the left, knowing that the strong winds would push him to the right, and launched himself 70 feet in the air. After landing the first jump he decided to go for another which almost ended in catastrophe. A huge gust of wind pushed Enslow two whole metres to the right whilst up in the air causing him to draw on all of his years of riding experience to escape what was almost a terrible crash. With jumping called off, Australia’s Robbie Maddison was practicing his take off speed and was reaching speeds of almost 200 km/h. Each rider is alloted twenty minutes in which to break the world record. Enslow will will commence the action, with Maddison jumping second and Capes holding the advantage of being the third and final rider who will know exactly what is required of him on the night. The jumping schedule has seen the rivalry between the talented trio increase as the long awaited night looms large for all three legend riders. Each rider is expected to jump at least three times within their twenty minutes. “I am scheduled to go second on the night which is going to be a definite disadvantage. Capes is last so he will know exactly what he has to jump to beat me,” said Maddison. “This just means I will have to go out and there and jump a distance I know he won’t be able to match. I have prepared my bike to reach speeds of 200 km/h which can push me to 400 feet so that is the distance I am going to jump.” Capes was quick to fire back at Maddison. “I know I have the advantage jumping last and I am going to make the most of it. If Robbie jumps 400 feet than I will go further. The record is going to be mine.” Robbie Maddison, Seth Enslow and Ryan Capes serious approach and painstaking preparation ahead of this Saturday evening’s jump was clearly evident. “We’ll see who can pull it off on the night, there could be some surprises.”

MARCH 2008
MARCH 3RD 2008 The atmosphere was electric at Aurora Stadium as the crowd of around 10,000 waited in anticipation for the craziest trick in extreme sport. Every pair of eyes was on Scott as soon as he revved his motorbike and hit the ramp to flip twice in the air as if in slow motion. Landing it perfectly he rode off the lander and into the history books. The crowd erupted in screams and cheers and were in complete shock and awe of what they had just witnessed. Scott made two attempts at the double back flip on the first stop of the Unleash Hell Regional Tour in Canberra on February 16, but crashed badly on the second. Falling four metres off the lander he was taken off to hospital by paramedics. Miraculously escaping injury he was released from hospital the following day and has been recovering and training hard determined to land the insane manoeuvre this time round. “I was so disappointed I let the fans down in Canberra and there was no way I wanted to that again. I knew I had it this time and it feels so awesome to pull off what I came here to do. I could feel the tension in the crowd and it just made me more determined,” said Scott. “I can’t explain how great this feels!” The whole show had the crowd going crazy with perfect weather conditions for riders to pull out all stops. The top three riders in the world were on show - world number one Nate Adams, X Games gold medallist Adam Jones and Mike Mason - all from the USA as well as Australia’s number one “Bilko” and the rest of the Crusty crew. New Crusty Demons rider Nicky Danielson from the US pulled off an insane Shoalin Flip where he
