Colombia’s Juan Caicedo, Spain’s Saúl Vilar and France’s Lera Liubimova took the main BMX titles at Marisquiño 2026, while Dutch rider Sietse Van Berkel successfully defended his BMX Flatland Pro title as the festival’s 26th edition came to a close in Vigo. Caicedo won Pro Park Men, finishing ahead of Ecuador´s Jonathan Camacho and Spain’s Saúl Vilar, and also claimed the Park Best Trick with a double flair. The result continues a strong season for the Colombian, who also won the Munich MASH BMX 2026 in June.
Vilar, competing in his home city, took the Pro Street title ahead of Argentina’s Gaspar Guendulain and Slovenia’s Matej Žan. The Vigo rider is the reigning Spanish BMX Freestyle Park champion.
O Marisquiño turned Vigo’s Samil Beach into another four-day playground for action sports, music and urban culture, with BMX once again playing a big part in the programme. The 2026 edition brought together riders for Park, Street, Flatland and Adaptive BMX, giving the weekend a good mix of all-out riding and technical creativity. With the Atlantic coast as a backdrop and a crowd that knows how to appreciate a good BMX move, the event delivered plenty of highlights. From the ramps and street course to the flatland floor and adaptive competition, here are the BMX results from O Marisquiño 2026.

There are BMX events and there are BMX events where you wonder what the hell is going on around you. Hammer & Nails Fest in Cologne definitely falls into the second category. The fourth edition of Felix Prangenberg’s BMX-meets-hardcore gathering went down Friday and Saturday at AbenteuerHallenKALK, with two days of riding, DIY obstacles, loud bands and plenty of international BMX talent. We made the trip over on Friday, mainly to check out the BMX side of things. The hardcore bands were already doing their best to shake the foundations of the building. If hardcore music is your thing, you were probably in heaven. Honestly for us, it was more a case of turning the camera towards the BMX action and
Red Bull athlete Broc Raiford had an idea nobody had tried before. Not a skatepark. Not a warehouse. The bayou. The Jean Lafitte Wetlands of his native southern Louisiana, wildlife, water, floating pads and all. From the moment the concept first took shape three years ago, the project has been entirely his. “BMX on the Bayou,” is a cinematic BMX project years in the making and built in one of the most unlikely and visually arresting environments ever brought to the sport, a bayou adjected to Jean Laffite National Historical Park and Preserve in Marreo, Louisiana. More than a BMX film, it’s a statement about what southern Louisiana produces, what the sport can look like, and what one rider can do when given the space to build something from scratch on his own terms.
