I rode in Poland on SGP. I've been on all of SGP competition, since 2008. I started with guys in 2009. In 2008, guys didn't have payouts for riding. Stunter 13 and other guys ride for some parts and prizes in kind. In 2009 was small payouts, 2010 bigger and 2011 WOW 12,000$. This comp is gettin bigger. This year, first time we've had official girls comp in EU. It was first and the last one, cuz the organisers said " no more girls comp, we don't need "negative show" and no more drama. They had computers, smartphones, etc for us. I think it's not much, but ok for first comp like that, and we were only 3, so clearly, all of us could have prize for free. Some girl could come and start, show burnout and take comptuer for 500$.
I hope u understand what I mean. My english still need more work.

Im happy u can understand.
And one thing yet. If we - girls, wanna have the same payouts like guys, we should ride minimum MINIMUM like Sarah Lezito + Dena Sodano + Brytni Noell... When girl make easy wheelie or burnout, it's not awesome anymore. WE NEED TO DO MORE WORK ON BIKES! that's what's I think

well put monica!
i just want to see the girls progress and feel like, at least in the US, the entire scene has regressed since last year and even more so since a few years ago when jessica maine was around, and even farther back, since JoJo was around.
the bigger any aspect of the sport gets, the bigger and usually better it gets for everyone.
and monica, you kill it! keep making vids and getting yourself out there...
ps. NONE of this is directed at any girl in particular, just a general point of view.
pps. i'm also willing to help in the ways that i can, any girl who asks for it. i've done the same for my fellow male competitors as well. i have a lot of experience to draw from and in the end, riding is my passion so i always wanna see things progress
