Penza, 20 June 2011. PenzaNews. The representative of the international federation of motorcycle sport (FIM) Nina Biryukova who was an international observer on the 6th and 7th stages of the Freestyle Motocross World Championship "Night of the jumps" which took place in Penza on June, 18th and 19th, considered that Penza needed a big stadium.

Nina Biryukova said: "I think, if the large sport facilities appear, the residents of Penza will visit such performances. For example, much more people visited stadium "Penza" on the second day of this championship, than on the first day. People have already understood what to watch and how to do it. They learned distinguish such tricks as "Tsunami" and "Rock-climber.

I would like you not to put aside this work as you do it with the World championship on cross-country race with carriages, which would take place in Kamensk-Uralsk this year. It's a very interesting show".

Nina Biryukova said that she would be very glad to see the Russian racers. To her mind, the level of sportsmen from different countries didn't differ greatly.

She said: "Motor-freestyle riders are not only sportsmen, but also actors. They should impress the audience. Therefore it is an unpredictable sport. The Australian Josh Shihan was very good. He found the common language with the race track at once in spite of the fact it was difficult".

She underlined that thanks to the hard preparations and in spite of the fact that carrying out of the Freestyle Motocross World Championship was new for the Penza organizers "everything was very well".
