Eight exceptionally talented street stunters, each handpicked by XSBA director Ken Abbott, were invited to introduce the street freestyle to this huge, mainstream audience, including: Texas local Patrick Stephens, Chris "Teach" McNeil, Anthony D'Orsi, Grant Sunday, "Crazy" Dan Jackson, Ronnie "Hitman" Hurst, Warren Jamez and Kane Friesen.
Riding conditions under the bright stadium lights varied from bad to worse, with a polished concrete floor covered with dirt blown over by the FMX riders leading to very poor traction conditions that gave the stunters fits. Many slips and tumbles marked the multiple practice sessions on the day prior to the event, but all the riders managed to get it together for the main event, putting on a dynamic, high-energy stunt show that blew the crowd--most of whom had never even heard of street stunting before--away.
