Australian Blake ‘Bilko’ Williams has won the freestyle motocross event Sunday at the AST Dew Tour Panasonic Open in Baltimore.
Williams earned 90.33 on his first run with solid, smooth, big flip tricks and a combination of 360’s on the ramps. He held the lead throughout the event. Two-time defending Dew Cup champion Nate Adams of Glendale, Ariz. was second at 89.33. Switzerland’s Mathieu Rebeaud finished third at 89.00.
“To come back here and take it out, you know, I’m stoked,” Williams said. “Nate and I are good friends so should be a good year battling together and everyone else is obviously going to step it up.”
Williams was injured last season and did not compete for six months.
“Just to come out this year I wasn’t as comfortable,” Williams said. “Still the injury from last year had got in the back of my mind, but I threw down what I had to. I got a lot of confidence back from this weekend and should be able to take that through the rest of the year, which is good.”
