Freestyle motocross riders performed high-flying stunts at the Venice Beach Boardwalk today.

According to Yo! Venice, pro riders Levi Sherwood, Dany Torres, Ronnie Renner, Keith Sayers and Rich Kearns were warming up for the Red Bull X-Fighters freestyle motocross series at the Glen Helen Raceway on May 12.

General admission tickets for the Red Bull event are $20, but today's event was free to beachgoers and anyone stuck at work who tuned in to see the live stream provided by Venice Beach Live Cam.
