featured on FOX Sports Network" said Johan Lindstrom of GSX Events Inc. “It’s important to show that BMX exists and TV is the still a very relevant media to get a healthy reach. We have struggled in the past to have a fixed channel and time slot for the BMX Supercross and this is certainly going to help building a TV audience in USA,” noted Johan Lindstrom. For the world-wide TV distribution, GSX has teamed up with IMG Media, the leading media distribution agency in the world, giving the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup tremendous oppurtunity to reach new fans. The UCI BMX Supercross World Cup is currently being distributed to over 40 broadcasters world-wide as well as part of the Transworld Sport weekly show. The global potential audience reach is over 650 million viewers.
Online content and live webcast continues to be the focus for the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup, where the GSX owned bmxlive.tv has seen a tremendous growth in the early season delivering high definition live webcast from all events. With an average of 45,000 live viewers per event and a total of 600,000 visitors shows a very positive trend.
“There’s no doubt that online content is key to reach the BMX fans” adds Johan Lindstrom “BMXlive.tv will continue to grow not only showing live webcasts but also with exclusive contents that will satisfy the most hard-core BMX fan” said Johan.
