This past weekend, Jamie Goldman hosted the UpsideDown and UnderGround jump jam/ media event at his compound here in Bend, Oregon.  There was a stacked list of pros, and a bunch of photographers and videograohers, with itchy shutter fingers.

Having not met very many pro riders, I wasn't sure what to expect when I arrived. What alot of us seem to forget is; these pros are just like us. They just want to kick it, and have a blast on 2 wheels.

The jam was supposed to go down on saturday; but due to our normal high winds here in Central Oregon, it was postponed until Sunday morning. We arrived at Goldman's at 11ish, as the pros were warming up and dialing in the line and lips. The jam started at noon, and the throwdown was ON!!!!!!    I'm not very good at photography, but here is what I was able to snag throughout the afternoon. Enjoy
