BMX Freestyle Thrills

BMX freestyle riders and scooter pros descended on the community for an unforgettable event. Combining heart-stopping stunts with a strong safety message, the show offered both entertainment and education for local kids and families.

The event featured a star lineup of BMX riders and scooter athletes, who demonstrated jaw-dropping tricks like backflips, tailwhips, and 360 spins on ramps and rails. The performers kept the crowd on the edge of their seats, blending technical skill with showmanship.

While the high-flying stunts were a major draw, the underlying focus of the event was safety. Experts led interactive workshops, teaching kids the importance of wearing helmets, properly maintaining their bikes, and adhering to traffic rules. The pros also shared personal stories about how safety gear had protected them during their careers, driving home the importance of responsible riding.

“This event was designed to inspire young riders while keeping them safe,” said one of the organizers. “We want them to push their limits on the ramps but also understand the value of protecting themselves and others.”

“Do what you love and never let someone else’s opinion determine your destiny”- Chandler Dunn

The BMX Freestyle event showcased the perfect blend of excitement and education and added some much needed excitement for the community.
