Dubai FMX highlights - Red Bull X-Fighters 2011

A sand palace in front of the skyline of Jumeirah Beach, sold-out stands and the surprise victory of Dany Torres were the ingredients for a superlative season-opener.

The 23-year-old Torres of Spain pulled out all the stops in the final jump and beat co-favorite Andre Villa (NOR) to claim the victory.

It was Torres' fifth victory in the history of the Red Bull X-Fighters since its creation in 2001.
