Best known as the ‘Super Bowl of Flatland BMX’, Red Bull Circle of Balance returned for the fifth iteration of the event after a 10-year hiatus. The global roster of athletes took their talents to the floor at New Orleans’ iconic Mardi Gras World; a venue as artistic and eclectic as the sport itself. Sixteen hand-selected athletes from nine countries went head-to-head in the bracket-style competition as viewers around the world tuned in live on Red Bull TV.

The 4-men final was going to be a good one.

Pim Scheers turned it up a notch in order to grab third place at the 2022 Dutch Park championships. He added a flairwhip to his run that was already packed with seatgrab indians, whips on the hip, front flips, no-footed cancans and as a bonus he nailed a triple tailwhip on the step-up in his 2nd run. Arjan Ellens was the only one to start off scoring points by bomb dropping from the wall into the quarter. Everyone likes to see stunts and Arjan brought them. Double barspin transfers, no-footed cancan one-footers,

The standings going into the last round of the 2022 UCI BMX Freestyle Park World Cup for Women Park was close. Chinese athletes left a strong impression at the last stop in Australia and are showing they mean business in the years to come. In the end it was Hannah Roberts who scored most points overall for the season to become the 2022 UCI BMX Freestyle World Cup Park champion. Second went to Nikita Ducarroz (SUI) and third place overall was for Charlotte Worthington who had to sit out the last World Cup final after a warm-up crash left her sidelined. Question of the day was if the Chinese ladies will continue to improve on their level. If they do, the 2023 UCI BMX Freestyle Park overall ranking will look a whole lot different. The challenge is on, and that's a good thing. Progression needs to be made. Riding needs to be pushed. There is never a stale moment in BMX Freestyle.
