By: Teddy Parker

GRINDTV Newswire - via ASA Entertainment (April 19, 2010): For the first time ever, the Augusta Entertainment Complex will play host to the world's top action sports athletes when the ASA Big Air Triples (Triples) heads to the James Brown Arena on Saturday, June 19th. During two shows, top pros in BMX and Skateboard will take on the challenge of the 195-foot long Triples course, consisting of a 25-foot high roll-in ramp, two 25-foot wide jumps and a course-ending quarter-pipe, all while grabbing "big air" to perform their flips, whips, flairs and spins for the event titles.

Previous ASA Big Air Triples events have included the talents of 2009 X Games gold medalist and recent BMX Triples event champion Scotty Cranmer (Howell, New Jersey); two-time, 2009 BMX Triples event champion Ryan Guettler (Queensland, Australia); and 2008 BMX Triples event champion Rob Darden (Greenville, North Carolina); in addition to X Games medalists Ryan Nyquist (Los Gatos, California) and Daniel Dhers (Caracas, Venezuela). The competition's head-to-head format stretches the athletic limits of these competitors and brings the fans to the edge of their seats in anticipation of the outcome.

Skateboard is a newly added feature to the Triples event. Some of the industry's most daring skateboarding pros will ride the ramps, challenging each other to perform their most spectacular stunts in pursuit of the Best Trick title.
