CHICAGO (AP) -- Mike Spinner won the BMX park final, England's Jamie Bestwick won the vert final and 15-year-old Brett Banasiewicz became the youngest BMX athlete to top the podium after winning the dirt final at the Dew Tour's BMX Open.
The two-day event is being held outside Soldier Field and is the first BMX stop of the 2010 Dew Tour season.
After sitting out most of the last season with an injury, Spinner, from Miami, started the season by earning a score of 92.50. He threw out his signature quadruple tailwhip and a 1080 for his second Dew Tour win of his career.
Daniel Dhers of Venezuela came in second with a 92.13.
Bestwick scored a 95.38 with massive alley-oop variations and a turn-down flair.
Banasiewicz, from South Bend, Ind., had a winning run that included a barspin off the roll-in, front flip no hander, truck driver, barspin up jump down triple whip and a wall ride to tail whip. He earned a score of 92.94.
