Keep your eye out for highlights and to see who will be crowned women's and men's champions!
I know I have been gone for awhile but its worth the wait! Introducing the Michael Kors X Tech movie! Met up with skater-turned-videographer to produce this epic movie!
First time visiting, traveling alone and testing the Olympic Track. It's was a fun and productive week with great people, wish I had more time to explore the country. Enjoy the video!
It is with great sadness that we have to announce that Rom Skatepark, granted heritage status in 2014, has after forty one years of ceaseless operation, closed it’s doors as of the 1st September 2019. With the loss of all the indoor facilities at a devastating fire last summer, (which had a major impact on the parks’ revenue over the past twelve months) and despite receiving a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund to promote the park in 2018, over the last year the park has faced an unprecedented increase in insurance costs, ridiculously high business rates (compared to similar venues) and probably the worst summer in terms of attendance figures for years.
As such the park is no longer able to remain open for the foreseeable future.
Being a bmx rider while growing up, I learned so much and effected so many people positivly threw riding my BMX bike.In the end it's more about the lessons and experienced you gain threw enjoying BMX with friends and family that's why BMX will Never Grow Old...
We handed the mic to Our BMX correspondent Tommy Dugan to get the vibe of the event here at Battle of Hastings 2019. Hilarity ensued.
Well, my brain is melted. Finals at Battle Of Hastings was just as expected... Broken up by rider, here's highlights from finals. Congrats to the winners!
