Monster Energy dominates once again with a consecutive podium
sweep at the second stop of the 2025 BMX Triple Challenge in
Glendale, Arizona. Monster
Energy's Ryan
Williams (RWilly) claims back-to-back first-place
victories, Monster Army's Kaden
Stone lands in second while also taking home Best Trick, and
Monster Energy's Mike
Varga rounds out the podium in third.
Presented by Monster Energy, the BMX Triple Challenge is the
premier dirt jump contest series, bringing the biggest tricks and
top riders to stadiums alongside Supercross. The Glendale event delivered no shortage of
progressive riding, with each finalist pushing the boundaries of
what's possible on dirt.
"The BMX Triple Challenge is no joke anymore. You can't pull
punches—it's all out from qualifications to finals. If you don't
step it up, you get left behind," said Williams. "I felt like I was
just throwing tricks at the wall and seeing what stuck with the
judges. Going into finals, I knew I had to step it up, so I wanted
to get my first run in from qualifiers to keep a solid score on the
board. But after the first round of runs in the finals, I knew that
wasn't going to cut it. I had to step it up."
Williams sealed the victory with an insane run, executing a
frontflip inward flip, followed by a frontflip kickless
tailwhip-to-tailwhip back—the trick that won him Best Trick in
Anaheim—before finishing with a cashroll on the last set.
Monster Army's Stone countered with a twister barspin, triple
tailwhip, and 720 double barspin, securing second place. He then
threw down another twister barspin to win Best Trick. Varga set the
bar early with a double flip into a 720 on the middle set before
stepping it up with a 720 double whip on the final jump, securing
third place.
"Dubby [Kaden Stone] is chasing
my heels," added Williams. "I feel like he's always just behind me.
I mean, he beat me in Best Trick, so that's going to give him a few
extra points. I don't know where we're sitting, but he will
definitely be close enough to beat me if he does well in
Arlington, and I can't put it
together. I've got to still be on my A-game, and I'm going to go
home and put in some work while hanging out with my son."
Williams' ability to pull off high-difficulty tricks with
precision and consistency has made him the rider to beat this
season. Stone's rapid progression and technical mastery continue to
impress, while Varga's big air and trick variety keep him in podium
contention.
With two stops down and one more to go, the BMX Triple Challenge
heads to Arlington, Texas, on
February 22, where the world's best
BMX riders will battle for the final event title of the season.
