Badass trick I wanted to share with you!

Saterday a week ago me and my friends went to Minden, Germany for the Flatland Fanatics contest. It was a great day and i rode really good! I ended up taking 4th place after qualifying 2th, because of taking some risks! Check out the video of the contest

Video footage from my friend Omar from last summer in Cologne, Germany after the BMX Masters. Check out my links at the end!

Last Friday was a very big day for me! I had to perform on live television! I made it in to the half-final of "Holland's Got Talent" and it looked ages ago since I did my audition. Thursday my adventure started, I had to be in the studio at 8.30 in the morning to do rehearsals, the time pasted by with a lot of waiting and around 3 o'clock I was free to leave. I decided to chill for the evening and head to bed early since i had to wake up at 7 and be at studio again at 8.30 in the morning. The next day pasted along with a lot of waiting, eating candy, chips and drinking coke to keep me awake! After rehearsing everything for the big show, it was time for a great diner! At 8 o'clock all the acts had to get together and we could all watch the show on a big TV. Time passed by and in no time it was already my turn, there where 8 acts and i had to preform as 4th. The acts before me where really good, so I knew I had to get out there and do it as best as I could. Everything went so fast and in no time my act was done and I was standing in front of a big screaming audience. It felt so good! I thought about this moment so many times and in seconds it was just over, at least my act was, I still had to hear what the judged thought of it. I couldn't have wished for any better responses! I was super stoked! Then it was time to check the other acts and wait for the result. In the morning i checked my horoscope (I never do this but for some reason i bummed on it in the news paper) and it said "You must process a disappointment. Focus on the future and do not continue to look in the past ". So i didn't make it in to the finals this Friday, but i couldn't be more happy with my performance. When i was on stage i was having the time of my life and i just enjoyed myself! It felt great! Special thanks to everyone who supported me and voted for me and to the other competitors for the positive vibe!

Check out the video!

Yesterday was the last stop from Streetmasters. Again new faces showed up, so that was good to see! Too bad i didn't see so much progression from the other riders. I think this was the last competition in Holland, so i hope people got motivated to learn new tricks! Some tight battles went down between Erik & Navid and Milan & Navid. Erik made it in to the final so he had to battle me. I took the win, so the end result was as followed:

Day results:

1. Dez Maarsen
2. Erik Hogers
3. Navid Saleki

Overall result:

1. Dez Maarsen
2. Navid Saleki
3. Milan van Roon



After the contest we went to Ikea for some diner and Wouter took this fun picture!



Now it's time to enjoy the last week, because next week school is starting and i still have to prepare my performance for Holland's Got Talent on the 3th of September. So stay tuned!

So I entered the new season of Holland's Got Talent. The show got taken over by a different TV channel and they invited me to show my skills. I made it trough to the Half Final and i'll be preforming live on the 3th of September! Wish me luck!
