This Easter the real fun is at Thorpe Park as the X-treme sports thrill seekers are here to blow you away with their death defying stunts and tricks. The event is running from the 21st of March up to the 24th and features a weekend full of totally x-treme action.
First up, running every day of the Head Rush event are the Bolddog Extreme Action team. The team are an eclectic mix of skateboarders, BMXers and inline skaters, and all are experts on the half pipe. Be prepared to pick your jaw up off the floor as you watch them on the specially constructed ramp.
There will also be even more extreme action coming from the freestyle Moto-X riders, in the shape of Jamie Squibb and Dan Whitby flying over 35ft up in the air. Incredible US riders Thomas Alves and Jack Rowe will also be present and performing unbelievable 75ft back flips.
On Friday 21st March be prepared for the entertainment of the Dirty Sanchez crew, pushing the limits both on and off the half pipe.
There will be action over the weekend from Bolddog's Jet Ski Freestyle team, and also Geno Yauchler will be at Thorpe on Monday the 24th to attempt to beat his own world record for most flips on an Air Chair. The current record stands at 1416 flips in four and a half hours, can he beat it? Theres only one way to find out.
