Last weekend Prague hosted the Coolife fest event, during which the Czech Republic BMX miniramp championship took place with the participation of foreign racers. The miniramp was placed on a pontoon in the middle of the Vltava River and thousands of visitors came to watch this unique show. The whole event was eventually won by Ukrainian Red Bull rider Yurii Illuschenko, followed by local Miki Hovorka, who also became the champion of the Czech Republic. Third place went to Californian BMX superstar Pat Casey, who also won the Skoda auto best trick for 180 double tailwhip over spine to fakie frontflip. BMX was part of this festival for the second time and we hope that next year we will be able to attract other big names! (the production of the race was handled by Remarkable agency, which previously organized the BMXtreme fest event)
In addition to BMX, the event featured many other extreme sports, a concert of rappers and an after party on the boat. Besides the race itself, there was also a three-day video shoot with Pat Casey around the best spots in the Czech Republic, so you can look forward to a great video edit soon.
PRO final results:
1 Yurii Illuschenko 86,00
2 Miki Hovorka 79,67
3 Pat Casey 76,00
After Kye Whyte's hard work with his BMX Racing sports, he earned 2nd place at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020. This is a fantastic achievement. Whyte was raised in Peckham in southeast London, United Kingdom and has influenced many of the youth in the area.

Big bmx jam in baltimore. We had an amazing time and with the help of some local sponcers and others we made the best jam yet!
Casey Starling has been on a mission the past few years and we thought we should check the steed that allows him to do all his crazy shit out in the streets. Will Chappell caught up with him to check his latest Kink / Premium build.
In the worldwide BMX flatland scene it is common to see riders with similar styles and tricks. Every so often a trendy style will come along and result in copycat riders. Ultimately, being original or having your own style becomes one of the top priorities of most riders.
It's almost a 3-DAY weekend, but before we blow out of here, have a look ? at all the action that popped off at The Building this week! BTM XLs (in new 20.6 and 20.8 TT lengths) make their way through the shop.

I spent a chilly Saturday back in March with Rick Moliterno and the boys at Standard Byke Company. I wanted an inside view to some of the inner workings of an American made bmx company.
With a high level racing on the Velosolutions Pump Track setting the tone for the day and with more than 65 riders registered riders, and some heavy hitters on the start line, the racing was intense with the like of @alecbobster, @rezende500, @pedroburns and @brunolavagninomtb leaving everything on the track to fight for the 4 spots in the Men’s category. But it was the current World no 2 @alecbobster that took the top place on the podium, his fastest time of the day coming in at 23.799 secs in his semi-final run. 2nd place went to @brunolavagninomtb with a 3rd place for @sebamendez154
