Russian Kostya Andreev grabs win at 040 Invitational Spine Ramp contest in Eindhoven, Netherlands
The E-Moves festival in Eindhoven, Netherlands once again brought BMX fans together for the second edition of the 040 Invitational Spine Ramp contest. The 040 BMX crew set up a new version of the massive miniramp in the middle of the city for the invited riders to shine. 12 riders made it to the final where Kostya Andreev meant business with back to back tricks including 3-whips to tuck over the spine and flairs to tuck no-hander. James Jones from the UK was ripping and did many variations over the spine to get second place. Belgian Kenneth Tancré rode well to get the last spot on the podium in Eindhoven with third place.

DUB - Filippakos Kosmidis in Liverpool. You may know him by the name Filip Baf but don't be alarmed, it's the same guy and he's back with a stormer of an edit for DUB. We bumped into him while he was over from Greece at the recent jam those guys threw in Liverpool and his knuckles were destroyed after the wild opening clip. Dude put in serious work throughout. Hopefully we'll get to see him come back to the UK soon and handle that beast.
