Freestyle motocross riders take to Alexandra skies

Freestyle motocross riders have taken turns showing off their skills at the Alexandra Blossom Festival's Mardi Gras. 
 
The team of riders entertained the audience with their many airborne stunts as part of a full choreographed show.
 
This slowed-down footage shows one of the riders performing a tricky manoeuvre where he does the splits, then kicks his legs out mid-air, before returning them to the foot pegs before he lands.
 
A group of riders mounted the ramp to get into the air long enough to show off their tricks throughout the evening, which was watched by people of all ages.
