Over the past decade, FISE has grown from a single event in Montpellier into a global series reaching across Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and North America. Through strategic partnerships with leading international federations, FISE helped shape the global growth of urban sports, contributing to their inclusion in the Olympic Games.

Now, FISE is reigniting that momentum, with a renewed ambition to rebuild a true World Series that goes beyond its pre-pandemic heights. The series remains committed to open competitions, welcoming Pros Men & Women, Juniors and Amateurs.

In 2025, a new international cycle began, anchored by Macau, Montpellier, Shanghai, and Sakai. In an exclusive announcement made during the press conference, Hurricane revealed a brand-new Chinese stop: FISE Xperience Hangzhou, taking place September 5–7, 2025. Hosted in the scenic Zhejiang province near Shanghai, the event will feature BMX Flatland, Breaking, and a BMX Spine Ramp Contest, with additional disciplines potentially joining the lineup.
