Multi-time women's provincial motocross champion, Jolene Van Vugt, has signed a deal to wear EVS Sports protective gear for the 2006 season. Van Vugt jumped into the spotlight this summer when she became the first female to successfully backflip a full-sized dirt bike. Her record-setting jump was featured in Travis Pastrana's Nitro Circus 3 video, which is distributed by EVS Sports.

"EVS has a premiere team of riders including Travis Pastrana, Cowboy Kenny and Ashley Fiolek that rely on their products for safety," said Van Vugt. "I am stoked to be a part of that team and I'm proud to represent a company that produces quality protective gear. EVS Sports says that an extreme athlete is an individual that shows no bounds and is willing to put it all on the line. I agree."

Van Vugt will wear a full line of EVS products including the Web knee brace. For details on EVS Sport's entire line of products, go to www.evs-sports.com.
