In the unpredictable year of 2020, we didn’t know if or when we would see racing go down once again in the USA for Pros. But leave it to USA BMX to not only pull off an incredible feat of running over 20 races since the Pandemic started, but they put together one of the biggest and best USA BMX Grand Nationals to date. Tulsa was rocking, with masks on and 6 feet apart, and the riders were pumped to be back on track and racing for a title.
The Chase Pro team of Joris Daudet and Connor Fields have held the USA BMX #1 Pro title for the past 5 years between each other, and they were looking it make it a 6 pack of titles.
The Pros would race for the USA BMX title all on Friday, starting with the qualifying races during the Race of Championships, and then coming back for the Semi Finals and 3 Main events during he Night Show. With the top 16 Pros that qualified to the semis, there would be 2 groups, where the top 4 from each would make the main event. Connor and Joris would be in the same Semi final.
This is what happens when you give one of the most creative riders in BMX free reign in a grocery store… Where the average person sees shelves of goods and linoleum floors, Tate Roskelley finds all the ingredients needed to produce some top-shelf riding unlike anything you've seen before.
Today we wrap up the 2020 Race of Champions and we begin the hunt for the 2020 USA BMX Pro Titles! #raceofchampions #grands2020 #greatestraceonearth

HERES ANOTHER VIDEO OF JUST BMX AND NO BULLSHIT. I had to mess with some of the audios because of music but other then that it’s just raw clips from my camera roll on my old iPhone 8.
We found a spot for the winter! Here's the first few clips I filmed there in my two sessions there, I look forward to for a change being able to ride on dry ground through these rainy months. Enjoy!!
