Here're the Highlights from the Vans BMX Pro Cup in Waiblingen, Stuttgart.
Sessions - Vans Pro Cup - Germany - Colony BMX. Raw clips of Josh Dove, Zac Dangerfield, Jayden Fuller, Natalya Diehm, Paterico Fallico, Paulo Sacaki, Chris James, Konstantin Andreev, Clint Millar and Alex Hiam from Germany's Vans BMX Pro Cup.
The Vans BMX Pro Cup is not your average contest. If you had eyes on Stuttgart, Germany this weekend you would have caught glimpses of everyone having one massive party in and around the new bowl there. No weird competitive vibes, just full on, white knuckle blasting and laughs every minute. We sent our man on the ground, Pete Adam along with his camera in one hand and the DIG mic in the other, to go collect the jive. Enjoy 14 minutes of interviews, riding, and general best times.
