freestyle motocross

Trick motorcycle jumping

Freestyle motocross is a competitive motorcycle sport where riders perform aerial tricks and stunts on specially designed dirt bikes, launching off ramps to execute flips, twists, and mid-air acrobatics.

Judges score based on difficulty, style, and execution.

The sport emerged from traditional motocross racing in the 1990s and became a staple of the X Games.

Often abbreviated FMX.
