FROM 2 TO 4 STROKES

Having started riding at the tender age of two, FMX changed Jeremy’s life forever aged 16 when he joined the notorious Metal Mulisha crew. After an almost fatal crash in 2006, Twitch demonstrated what the word comeback really means with a third place at the 2007 X-Games. His mad bike skills brought him more victories in 2007 and he was on a mission to win the Red Bull X-Fighters Tour 2008, a goal he was ultimately prevented from achieving by an injury he suffered at the third event of the Tour.

After a frustrating 2008 and 2009, Twitch will be looking to return to his classic form of old in 2010 and show the world why he is one of the most exciting FMX riders on the scene. Unlike most of the other riders, Stenberg will ride the opening event in Mexico City (MEX) on a Yamaha YZ 450F, a standard race machine weighing in 10kg heavier that most of the other riders’ bikes and powered by four-stroke rather than the usual two-stroke engine.
