The countdown for the 4th Suzuki BMXMasters is running. Seven days in advance of the famous event, the freestyle tracks are ready to rock for the 4th to the 6th of July. The architects of dirt and street had to show their skills again, cause in the last years, their obstacles been the measure of all things. This year the dirt track shapers
Markus Hampl (28) and
Benny Paulsen (26) bringing the course to another level. Out of dirt and dust they are building a monster that's searching after something equal. For the first time in history of the Masters, the track is based under the bridge "Zoobrücke" to assure a waterproof contest. The combination of all six jumps including a steep bank and a huge step up offers loads of opportunities for tricks and creativity.
Benny Paulsen says:
"It's the dopest roller coaster I've ever ridden."
MASSIVE STREET AREA Also the street riders don't have to be scared of too less adrenaline: a big park, lots of ramps and new obstacles are waiting to be ripped. Also a new creation of obstacle will be launched. We call it ?Bronko" and it's a quaterpipe/subbox/spine-combination. The step up ramp is also improved to be bigger, better and harder and on a two meters high platform riders are able to show even more trick combinations.
KEVIN ROBINSON VS SIMON TABRON But there are not only good news to be announced about street and dirt course. As the US-Superstar
