This year's show will feature an entire weekend of events including: a street contest, a flatland jam, a miniramp or bowl contest, and a concert featuring bands popular in BMX culture today. By combining several different aspects of BMX Steve Crandall and his crew are able to offer a more inclusive experience than you will find anywhere else.
The BMX Industry Trade Show will be a three day event. Thursday will be open to dealers and exhibitors only - offering you the opportunity to meet face to face with the companies you already deal with, as well as new and up-and-coming companies. Dealers will be able to check out summer and back to school products first hand, and know what they will be getting before they place an order.
Friday and Saturday the show will be open to the public, and on these days they will be offering booths on the trade show floor to mail orders and shops. All exhibitors will also be able to sell direct to the public on these two days and get their products in the hands of riders who may not have a local shop carrying a particular brand.
The three contests will be held at East Coast Terminal, which has a new owner and an updated street course. The street contest will be a two day event with three classes ranging from beginner to pro, whereas the flatland and miniramp/bowl events will be informal one-day competitions. To make the contests more memorable for the winners we will be offering one-of-a-kind items and other prizes from outside BMX. Saturday night there will be a concert at East Coast Terminal featuring bands popular in BMX.
A DVD will be filmed of the weekend to be sold later in the summer. It will feature the contests, the trade show, footage from rider's and exhibitor's road trips to the event, and small sections for the winners of each contest.
