They will be judged on criteria such as inclusivity, creativity and style by a brand-new panel of BMX legends, including Vans riders – Dennis Enarson, Angie Marino and Dan Lacey – as well as athlete and filmer, Calvin Kosovich. And the final (and most important judge) is the BMX community. Alongside prizes for the Top 3 shops, MVP, Best Trick, Creative Vision, this year’s competition will introduce a new award for Photography, further supporting the expressive creators within the BMX community.
