Julian Molina heads over to the Austin BMX mainstay, Empire BMX, to build up a fresh Globetrotter frame in the new Gloss Red Flake colorway.
Gaston County: From the first time riders were taking timed runs it was evident that lap times would be faster than ever before at the Gaston County Velosolutions Pump Track. The Women’s timed runs saw Payton Ridenhour out to an early lead but Ashley Hayes put in a heater on her second timed run taking the top qualifying spot with a 21.90.
Men’s timed runs were blazing fast. For those who went to the 2019 qualifier at the Gaston County park nobody could recall so many times in the low 20 second range like we had tonight.

BMX rider Twan van Gendt has been nominated by the KNWU to NOC*NSF to compete for the Netherlands in Japan. The reigning world champion will be given a spot after he was unable to participate in the decisive World Cup weekend in Verona due to a shoulder injury. Due to his injury, the rider of Team Oegema-Fieten still has to show that he is in good shape. This appears to be only a formality due to a very successful recovery so far. Twan can therefore prepare for his third Olympic Games.
At the beginning of May, Twan van Gendt had an unfortunate fall during the European Cup in Verona, causing his shoulder to dislocate. Additional examination revealed nothing damaged in the shoulder. The consequence was, however, that van Gendt was unable to officially meet the qualification requirement by maintaining form during the World Cup weekend in Verona. A big disappointment, as Twan was in good shape and set several records in training.
The KNWU has appointed Twan for one of the three Dutch places in the Elite Men class. Niek Kimmann and Joris Harmsen also deserved a ticket. Laura and Merel Smulders qualify for the ladies, as does Judy Baauw.
Jack Sunderland recently moved from London to Lancaster and the first point of call was obviously to check out what the local skateparks had to offer. Enjoy a minute of raw bmx from a couple days road trip!
It’s all about having good times on your bike. The Globetrotter is Brian Kachinsky’s signature frame. Tried, tested, and made true by the entire team.
It is a great honor for us to welcome Ernests Zebolds on the PARBMX team! Ernest is great guy, overall positive, regularly riding, improving as a personality and is one of the leading BMX riders in Europe.
Nowadays with Tony Cherry. Classic style and tricks in his hometown. What better way to celebrate his 35th birthday.
