Despite intense discussions concerning the realization of the Vert-Competition at major contests, like the Summer X-Games 2008, the halfpipe challenge is going to happen at Suzuki BMXMasters 2008 from 4th- 6th July in Cologne as usual. After talking to the riders, we have been encouraged to hold on to this unique contest model and continue to offer all five BMX-Freestyle disciplines. Vert is not only an inherent part of the contest philosophy of the Suzuki BMXMasters, but also a guaranty for spectacular BMX action at the Jugendpark with top-class participants every year.
This year again many international pros, which arrive from all over the world, have signed up in order to match with the european elite. We are particularly happy to welcome riders like
Evandro da Silva from Sao Bernardo do Compo (Brasil) and
Oliver Cantillo from Caracas (Venezuela).
A most gratifying development as well is that more and more street rider are up to get wild on the pipe. Even for the confirmed vert-cracks they are absolutely serious competitors, just like Street-Pro
Daniel Dhers (23) from Venezuela, whose participation at the halfpipe-contest has already been fixed. Join us at the showdown in the halfpipe on sunday, July 6th at the Cologne Jugendpark!
