2014 Monster Army Recon Tour PRO - Clairemont Skatepark

Solana Beach, Calif. – October 15, 2014 – The second stop of the Recon Tour PRO presented by Replay XD went down last weekend at Mission Valley YMCA Krause Family Skate & Bike Park (Clairemont). Australian Logan Martin claimed the top spot and earned $5,000 competing against Monster Energy teammate’s Scotty Cranmer and Kevin Peraza, and local pros Alex Landeros, Chris Hughes and Larry Edgar.

The PRO contest was stacked with International competitors, coming from Australia, England and Canada to compete with athletes from across the states. Taking first Australian Logan Martin earned the top spot with unique tricks and original lines. Coming in second, Monster Energy’s Scotty Cranmer whose memorable runs included a helicopter on the step up and an ice pick on the MovieTickets.com mural wall. Taking the third podium spot, Larry Edgar rounded out the podium by airing higher than any other competitor.

Advancing to the PRO contest from Saturday’s AM final, Jacob Bailey, Kevin Fabregue and local boy Parker Heath competed against the best and earned their way into the final. Former AM winners, Sebastian Smith, Brad Thomas, Case Taylor and Joel Bondu each finished in the top ten of the PRO contest, proving the unique format of the Recon Tour valuable as the only route for am competitors to compete against pros in BMX.

Saturday’s Recon Tour AM event was just as thrilling and exciting as the PRO. The open division had park locals throwing down against International competitors. It was local hero Parker Heath that earned 1^st place by throwing huge tricks and unique lines. Rounding out the podium was French Canadian Kevin Fabregue, taking back-to-back podiums at Incline Club and Mission Valley, and in third, Jacob Bailey.
