BMX sensation of the moment, Drew Bezanson, is coming to The Hague. The 25 year old Canadian, who is living in California, will be riding for the title ‘Next Gladiator’ on the 18th, 19th and 20th of September during The Hague PRO FREESTYLE 2015. Bezanson’s latest video ‘Uncontainable’ is, as we speak, a real viral hit. With this movie his is raising the bar for BMX freestyle action. The Hague PRO FREESTYLE wouldn’t have containers, but it will have a custom made BMX park.

With Drew Bezanson the tournament lines up a hot shot for the title. With his 2nd place during the 2014 X Games in the US and several Simple Session wins in Estonia Bezanson will be riding to win and hopefully enjoying the Dutch city lifestyle. But competition is strong with other well known international riders. The organisation is stoked with the confirmation of Daniel Wedemeijer (NED) and Paul Thoelen (DE). Within the coming days there will be more international hot shots announced.

Controlling those nerves and accepting the fear are what set Bezanson apart from the pack, as documented in his latest video release ‘Uncontainable’ from Red Bull.

Eurobike will showcase the eagerly anticipated release of POCs new trail/enduro helmet, the Tectal, and a brand new full face helmet, Coron, which has been developed with POC athlete Martin Söderström. Alongside the helmets will be Crave a new mtb inspired set of glasses designed for the perfect fit and function on the trail. Helmets play a fundamental part in POCs mission ‘to do the best we can to possibly save lives and to reduce the consequences of accidents for gravity sports athletes and cyclists.’ Following the success of the original trail/enduro specific helmet, the Trabec, we wanted to push the bar higher in terms of protection and performance.
