The oldest running European Freestyle Motocross series -"NIGHT of the JUMPs" will be premiering in Switzerland for the first time this year on the weekend of the 17th and 18th of April 2004. The International Freestyle Motocross Federation will be hitting Bern with some of the best riders in the world to battle it out over world ranking points and a huge purse of 21.250,- Euro!
Awaiting the public is the usual IFMXF contest schedule of "Best Whip", "Highest AIR" and "Freestyle". Both days promise to be packed full of adrenalin and high-flying acrobatics.
The NIGHT of the JUMPs Bern will introduce the first closed qualification segment of the 2004 IFMXF season. This closed qualification offers all interested riders the opportunity to fight for the last two remaining roster positions in the contest line-up. This premier will hopefully prove to be a stepping stone for riders who were previously unable to secure an IFMXF roster position in past contests and seasons. At the moment riders from England, Sweden, Norway and France have taken the opportunity and reserved a starting slot for the closed qualifications on location.
The main line-up will host some of the best names in Freestyle seen today. Riders like show-man Ronnie Renner from the US as well as the high-flyers Busty Wolter out of Germany and IFMXF ranking leader Ailo Gaup from Norway have shown interest in starting in Bern.
