Paris, 22th of May.
The French Soul BMX magazine celebrated their 12th Anniversary in style, with a massive street jam held in the middle Paris. Nike 6.0 participate in the fun and frolics of the day making this a occasion to be remembered.
Visiting Paris’ classic spots and adding their own ramps to give a new twist bought the crowds from far and wide.
With more than 200 riders from all over France mixed in with invited pros from Federal, BSD, Dub and WeThePeople, this served as the perfect crew for the mag’s “Soulatour”.
Nike 6.0 riders Joris Coulomb, Jason Phelan, Alex Kennedy and French flow riders Mangoose, Libellule all showed up to represent while an injured Maxime Charveron watched from the stands.
With police drama busting the session halfway through, an undeterred set of riders and crowd worked their way through the backstreets of Paris before ending up at the final and most spectacular spot of all, a 19th Century Parisian swimming bath.
Reworked with countless gold and black ramps, the amped crowd saw the best riders of the day sessioning this historic landmark. With flowing lines and the riders making full use of the buildings many transfers, it was a case of Parisian artistry at it’s finest.
