Red Bull Empire of Dirt, the world's first BMX DIRT SLOPESTYLE contest, is the brainchild of UK rider Kye Forte, and combines influences from each of the BMX styles, to create one unholy new discipline guaranteed to challenge the very best on the planet. "The aim of the Empire of Dirt is to bring together all different aspects of BMX in one contest; to really challenge the rider's versatility," says
Kye Forte, Newton Abbot local and top UK rider.
"We also want to make the week surrounding the event totally memorable - both for the riding, and the social scene - putting Devon on the global BMX map."
The monstrous Red Bull Empire of Dirt course will take over a month to build, swallow thousands of tons of dirt and will feature an epic dirt superpipe, huge double jumps, and technical street obstacles, including rails, boxes and wall rides.
