weekend in July, 2016, the organizers around BMX legend Stephan Prantl return to the two-day event format and in the second year after their 30th anniversary, will continue to follow their belief in bringing the sport and the festival back to their roots.
As in past years, the focus will be on the four disciplines Street, Spine Ramp, Flatland and Kickturn Ramp Old School Style, all of which will be taken on by riders in the classes Amateur, Pro and Old Schoolers.
More than 200 athletes from more than 10 nations are expected at this unique event. The snipes BMX COLOGNE 2016 will, like last year, be free to fans and visitors – this is a part of the motto „CELEBRATING BMX“ in its freedom and down-to-earthness.
„After a fundamental change in concept, last year we celebrated the perhaps best event of the last few years. That is why we want to once again forgo paid entry, so that everyone – hardcore fans, beginners, interested on-lookers and families – can have the possibility of celebrating BMX sport together with us,“ explained Stephan Prantl, organizer of snipes BMX COLOGNE. „Athletically, this year we are focusing again on four core BMX disciplines and expanding to two days. This way we want to help BMX sport to continue evolving.“
The BMX Festival will be rounded out with an „80s Roller Skate Disco“ as well as food trucks and a shopping mile, so that attendees‘ hunger and thirst will be serviced in original ways and that they can shop for everything they want, from sunglasses to BMX bikes.
