Twitch and Maddo sesh for TransWorld Motocross photo/video shoot

I was talking to TransWorld Motocross Editor-in-Chief Donn Maeda yesterday and he mentioned that he was planning to shoot with Jeremy "Twitch" Stenberg and Robbie "Maddo" Maddison at the Metal Mulisha Compound today (Wednesday, November 4). I'm always pumped to see new footage and photos of Twitch, but what made this session different from the rest is that Twitch was aboard his big 450 four-stroke. (Click enlarge for a larger view of the photo)
A while back Twitch mentioned that he'd be making a perminent switch to the 450, but he had to wait for the 2009 season to end so he could start fresh. So, for 2010, expect to see Twitch aboard Yamaha's new 2010 YZ450F — the very same insane looking bike that James Stewart's been waxing everyone with lately. Man, I can't wait to see one of those things freestyled out!
To see video of today's ride sesh, check out TransWorld's website. I'm told the vid should be up later tonight. Oh ... and go Yankees!

Leyba is a bitter, retired FMX rider that likes to sit in his cubicle and call the professionals of the sport wussies for not pulling 360s and double backflips. He claims he quit riding FMX before flips were even invented... yeah, right.
Cliff Talley
Making FMX videos exciting is easy. Making them look good is not. Cliff Talley does both of these well and still manages to find enough time to piss off his neighbors with his Travis Barker-esque drum skills.
Chris Tedesco
You've seen his photos on the covers of Transworld, Racer X and more. You've also seen his tequila shooting skills at your local dive bar. Ladies, Chris is single and looking to mingle.
Grant "Goba" O'brien
FMX in Australia wouldn't exist if it weren't for Goba. Well, maybe it would, but it wouldn't be nearly as cool. I don't know why, but we can't quit calling him gobalobadingdong — it just rolls off the tongue.
Tes Sewell
Tes is the dude that's always involved in everything that's going on in FMX. How he does it, we don't know, but that's the reason we hired him to share his plethora of FMX wisdom in the form of a monthly column.
