ZOOM : BMX STREET 😎
Focus on BMX Street for this 2024 edition of FISE Montpellier 🤙
BMX STREET CONTEST PRESENTED BY THE CITY OF MONTPELLIER
In BMX Street, riders ride in an urban environment, using benches, quarters or staircases as supports - a true reproduction of the outdoor layout of city centers. The judging criteria favor the expression of each rider's own style, and are particularly appreciative when they break out of the usual framework by launching original trick/module compositions, acclaimed by an initiated public receptive to the subtleties of each run.
New for 2024, a BMX Street Women's contest will be held for the first time at Montpellier Street Park! With each passing season, more and more female riders sign up to compete for the top step of the podium 🏆
Here's a round-up of the Men's and Women's BMX Street podiums at the 2023 event 👇
BMX STREET PODIUM - FISE MONTPELLIER 2023 - MEN 🏆
Courage ADAMS - 27 years old - SPAIN
Born in Nigeria, Courage moved to northern Spain with his family at the age of 5. At the age of 12, he discovered BMX and excelled with his technical skills. A humble and enthusiastic rider, he has been delighting crowds in Montpellier since 2017 (when he won the stage) with his signature tricks: long Manual combos. In 2023, he once again took first place in Montpellier, his third consecutive victory!
Alex KENNEDY - 36 years old - UNITED KINGDOM
His laid-back attitude, huge baggage of tricks and original, ultra-fluid style make Alex a versatile rider who's much appreciated in competition. He's constantly looking to evolve his discipline through hard work, always taking the time to create amazing new tricks. It goes without saying that the Montpellier crowd is once again eagerly awaiting him to showcase the full extent of his talent!
Thomas CARROT - 27 years old - FRANCE
The man who took part in the FISE Métropole and FISE Xperiences Series when he was younger took 3rd place at FISE Montpellier 2023 with a huge 360 whip. The Frenchman still pulls off the craziest tricks with style on the ramps, taking his riding to a whole new level.
BMX STREET - WOMEN 🏆
Valentina ANAHI - 27 years old - ECUADOR
Dirt, Bowl, Street, Valentina has a natural talent for BMX. Moving quickly from local tracks to international competitions, she impresses spectators and peers alike with her technical skills as she seeks to push the boundaries of Women's BMX Street.
Aubree HENSON - 11 years old - UNITED KINGDOM
At just 11 years of age, Aubree is England's BMX Street hopeful, with a very solid riding style based on feeble hards and x-up rides. Always accompanied by her father, she never ceases to cause a sensation at competitions. A young rider to watch closely on Montpellier Street...
Linda GRABNER - 24 years old - AUSTRIA
Noticed on social media in 2021, Linda is one of those who are changing the face of women's BMX Street. Awarded best rider in her discipline at the NORA Cup (Number One Rider Award Cup) in 2022, she is now making her mark on the biggest competitions thanks to her style and commitment.
