Jack and Rhianna flew out of Brisbane on an unholy 2.30 am flight.
Star of Out of Section and the brand new Ride The World DVD's, Julien Dupont hosted Jack and Rhianna in his amazing apartment overlooking Lyon, France.

When Jack arrived, Julien was filming for a Brazilian extreme sports show. he certainly has become a Global name in Freestyle Trials!
Over the next few days they travelled down to Montpellier,and spent time riding with Julien Dupont, Chris Braund (French Trials Champion) and Loris Gubian (World Youth Trials Champion).

Christopher Bruand.
The first day was at a local skate park. Chris Bruand kindly gave Jack his spare 300 gasser to ride for the sessions. Jack said he was a bit nervous, especially riding someone else's bike, and in new company, but loosened up after a while.
Jack was buzzing after a great day and effused , "After riding for about 10min Chris and Loris came up to me and were telling me how to do 180's out of the bowl, .....well that's what i thought. Then I finally realised they were asking me how to do it! I was so shocked I had these guys asking me how to do a trick! So we then spent some time doing my fakie 360's and 180 degree side hops.
By the arvo I was feeling pretty comfortable on Chris's 300cc GasGas and found a nice little bank in the skate park and pulled some backflips off, ....every one was blown away! The guys couldn't believe it could be done off such a little kicker, but then Julz pulled one as well, and landed cleanly, so that was really cool.
It is so good riding with all these guys, they are such talented riders. We all push each other so much. Their technical skills are so good, and really smooth. I have a more freestyle and bmx trials style, with jumps, spins, and grinds so between the group we came up with some really cool lines."
The next day they went to Marseille to ride with Brice Izzo, French Freestyle rider, and Chris did his first backflips into the foam pit. Lots of laughs and fun had by the crew. The boys then made a big wall ride off the side of a semitrailer on top of a hill! Jack was cool and smashed some great lines off it, everyone else gave it a wide birth! Jack seems to excel in the more sketchy lines!

That night Jack went out for a few drinks with the boys and was enthralled with stories about trials in Europe. Jack said "I think many peoples perception in Australia is completely different to what it actually is here". We can't wait to hear more!
Next day was a short drive to Paris for a big RedBull party, and a nice weekend with julz and his girl.

Loris Gubian
Jack and Rhianna will be travelling around Europe until the New Year, and will be making their way home via the USA, were Jack has some riding commitments with ZERO electric Dirtbikes.
