Competitions will include BMX streetstyle, skateboard streetstyle, BMX street and skateboard street. In addition, Dew Tour organizers worked with the City to close down Franklin Street for a distinctive streetstyle course which will combine real-life street obstacles with reinforced structures to provide competitors with an exciting redesign from previous years. Inside House of Vans, the street course will challenge athletes to demonstrate technical skills as they create unique lines through the features.
“Brooklyn has arguably been the most anticipated stop of the 2014 Dew Tour,” said Chris Stiepock, Vice President and General Manager of the Dew Tour, Alli Sports. “The city’s culture and long-standing affinity for these sports make it the ideal host city for our unique, streetstyle event and we are excited for the city’s reception.”

“There aren’t many places in the world where the culture of skate comes to life through the sights and sounds of a city, but Brooklyn is one of those unique places,” said Greg Lyons, Vice President of Brand Marketing, Mountain Dew. “In action sports, bringing that culture to life through creativity and community is what it’s all about and we couldn’t imagine a more authentic place than Brooklyn to see that happen at Dew Tour.”

In the BMX street competition, Portland Dew Cup Champion Dennis Enarson will look to defend his title against top competitors Chad Kerley and Garrett Reynolds. Outside on the Dew Tour’s unique streetstyle course, athletes including Drew Bezanson, Brian Kachinsky and Enarson in BMX will showcase their creativity for the Brooklyn audience. A full list of confirmed athletes can be found at www.DewTour.com.

The Dew Tour will kick off Thursday night at House of Vans with a concert by R&B/hip-hop artist J Cole, complemented by the indie pop sounds of Bleachers, a newer American group created by Jack Antonoff of the band Fun.
