Nate Adams is the reigning 2009 world champion, though Red Bull’s well-known high-stakes stuntman, Robbie Maddison, is a serious threat for the title this year. Maddo has been working hard on his “regular” FMX skills. These two established Freestyle icons will have to share the spotlight with a snot-nosed challenger, Levi Sherwood.
