Cape Town will be rocked by the Pro-X Extreme Games this
weekend as dozens of the country’s most extreme athletes go ballistic in
custom built arenas alongside a red-hot line-up of live acts and DJ’s
blasting the airwaves at Zone 7, just North of the city.
Featuring the top local and several international exponents
of FMX, BMX, Skateboarding (Halfpipe & Street), Wakeboarding, Supercross
and MTB Trials, the mega-event runs the qualification rounds on Saturday
with the finals and awards presentation on Sunday.
Amongst many others, the likes of “Sick Nick” De Wit will be
throwing his weight around on the FMX track; Anthony Raynard and Wyatt
Avis will be tearing up the Supercross; Devon Nassif and Nick Burton-Moore
in the Wakepool; and from foreign shores, Kyle Forte and John Skvarla from
the USA.
The action in the arenas will be non-stop between 10am and
6pm on Saturday, with a lunchtime break for give-aways from the host of
sponsors and the Loaded Model Search, before the entertainment gets
underway.

Showcasing the talents of The Little Kings, Hog Higgidy Hog,
Van Coke Kartel, Haezer, Grave Danger, Lapse, Ashtray Electric, Blush &
Bass, Trailerpark Celebrities and more, Pro-X Live will continue until at
least 2am!
The gates re-open at 10am on Sunday and after the usual
lunchtime activities, the best of the best will proceed to blow minds as
they take to their respective arenas and vie for the 2010 Pro-X titles,
prestige and cash in the finals.
The awards ceremony is set for 7.30pm, with more give-aways
and general tomfoolery, before another bout of musical treats as the whole
celebration ends with a BANG!
Tickets are available from Vida e Caffes or online at
Webtickets and options range from R200 for the full weekend including the
Pro-X Live entertainment, R150 for the Sunday or R450 for VIP status that
enables you to spend time with the riders. There are student, children,
family and group discounts available.
The venue is Zone 7, just North of Blouberg on the road to
Malmesbury (N7) near the West Coast Show Ranch (see map below) and the
organisers have arranged camping facilities at nearby Zonnekus Holiday
Resort for those amped to stay for the entire weekend.
