6.29.09 CHICAGO DEW TOUR RECAP AND PHOTOS

The first stop of the 2009 Dew Tour took place this past weekend in Chicago and Osiris riders Kevin Kiraly, Dane Searls, Darryl Tocco, Rob Darden, and Marcus Tooker were in attendance.
Kevin Kiraly had some of the most technical moves on the park course including pulling a 180-barspin-to-barspin and a switch-360 off of the biggest wall in the park during his run.
Dane Searls had to ride open qualifying, but made it in the actual contest with no problems. Dane threw down some big moves on the dirt course and sealed his spot in the tour for the rest of the season.
Darryl Tocco was on hand as a filmer for the one-time-only Dew Tour street jam/filming contest. Darryl was teamed up with TwoByFour teammates Randy Brown, Chase Dehart, and Van Homan. Their team finished in third.
After a few slip ups and getting gnarly bruise on his arm, Rob Darden missed the cut for park finals by one spot. However, he still rode the park impressively and is still a contender in the overall points race. Rob made it into dirt finals and had a few standout moves like 720’s mid-set and a 720-barspin. He finished in sixth.
Marcus Tooker was on point all weekend and qualified for park finals in third with moves like 720’s over the box backwards and a double-tailwhip transfer. He held it together in finals as well and even threw a perfect bikeflip into his run. It was the only bikeflip of the entire contest. Marcus landed a spot on the podium and finished in third.
