Before the term enduro was coined every country had its own name for the sport. The first European title in "regolarità", as it was called in Italy, was taken by Husqvarna in 1982 with Italian Gualtiero Brissoni in the saddle. After several European titles were taken by iconic names such as Thomas Gustavsson and Sven Erik Jonsson, in 1990 the sport was given the title World Enduro Championship by the FIM and Otakar Kotrba won the honour for Husqvarna, the first in a long series. To date Husqvarna has taken 49 world enduro titles and a total of 82 in motocross, enduro and supermotard events in the company's 100+ year history. Enduro is endurance, in all conditions with special tests over different types of terrain. Both rider and bike must reach the finish line after many hours of off-road trails without any external assistance apart from the brief time controls. It is the experience gained from these victories that has produced the Husqvarna enduro series, which year by year incorporate the technical advances made on the tracks. In 2012 Husqvarna will officially compete in the Enduro World Championship, represented by Team CH Racing, and will also be present at major national events in Spain, France, Germany, UK, Italy, the U.S., Australia and Japan.

EXTREME SPORTS AND EXTREME LIABILITY: THE EFFECT OF WAIVERS OF LIABILITY IN EXTREME SPORTS Amanda Greer INTRODUCTION Imagine that a skier in a base jumping competition is about ready to jump off a cliff. Once the skier jumps off the cliff, usually the bindings of the skis will come off and the parachute will open, enabling a safe landing. However, in this situation, the bindings of the skis come off, but the parachute fails to open. The skier subsequently crashes to the ground, sustaining extremely serious injuries that leave the skier para- lyzed. As a result of the injuries, the skier files an action against the sponsors' involved in putting on the competition, claiming that they were negligent in giving him a defective parachute. The sponsors as- sert that the skier signed a liability waiver barring all claims, even negligence.

Powell: Premises Liability in California: Chilling the Diffusion of Bicyc COMMENTS PREMISES LIABILITY IN CALIFORNIA: CHILLING THE DIFFUSION OF BICYCLE MOTOCROSS INTRODUCTION When most people think of the Olympics, salient associations include honor, prestige, and human achievement. Trespass and premises liability, however, are unlikely associations. Yet for many Californian youths, the newest Olympic sport, bicycle motocross (BMX), involves just that.' Due to the inadequate availability of BMX facilities, participants in the sport are left with few options: travel great distances to participate, create their own facilities while trespassing, or, if they have the resources, construct facilities on private lands-which often subjects landowners to unreasonable liability. As a society, we should promote participation in all types of sports by making facilities readily available to youths. The rigors of athletic participation prepare children for the challenges of life.2 Additionally, athletic participation is socially desirable for people of all ages because it improves participants' physical and mental well- being.3 Beyond the obvious health benefits of exercise,4 athletics 1.
