Hello guys,
this is the first column of the year, I've been like always very busy during January and February a fews shows and contests but no surgery like last year.

January 9, 10 and 11 in Dortmund SX In the morning on the way to the arena a stupid woman cross two straight line and finished her drive into my Volkwagen T5. Unfortunately the radiator exploded so i was stuck. Then i came to late for the practice and had only a fews jumps. The show went pretty good with all the great riders (De Witt, Francklin, Fabi, Busty, Mason ) In the final train I finished pretty bad, my suspension linkage broke in the ramp and i couldn't finished my flip and had to jump off. Luckily nobody hit me or my bike. Saturday and sunday were better and the arena was sold out the 3 days (9000 personnes each day).

Here is the link from the video at 5minutes you will see the crash: http://www.prise1.com/index.php?v=AmLOLaZmqNQ

We got 3 brand new yamaha 2009 YZ for Izzo Romain, David Rinaldo and myself. We just finished to fix our parts on it and went for a sleep and at the wake up we only found one of them (mine)!! We still couldn't believe it! I rode the two days shows alone.On sunday we went in the desert to see some camel and have a barbecue, it was pretty cool.
