Out off the plane onto the compound.

The South Australian FMX Championships is a competition that has only been running for 2 years, but this year attracted 14 riders including most of Australia’s top guys like Cam Sinclair, Joel Balchin, Chucky Norris, Josh Sheehan and of course Steve Mini. Mini said: “Even though i was extremely jetlagged from Europe i rode well all day.” He qualified first, keeping in front of Sinclair by just a few points.

In his final Mini nailed all of his tricks perfectly. With a Holy Grab, KOD Indy flip, Lazyboy to no hand landing, Superflip, Clickerflip, no hand lander flip and a four trick combo with Holy Grab to 1-Hand Indy to Rock Solid to No-Hand-Lander he put himself on top of the field and took the win ahead of Cam Sinclair.

In the interview with the Freerider MX magazine he said: "I am kinda surprised to win here today. When you're up against the likes of Cam Sinclair, Joel Balchin and Chucki Norris you definitely can't bank on walking away with the cash. I put together a really smooth run that felt good. This is my first win in an Australian competition, so I'm stoked."
