BMX DIRTY STREET CONTEST 2017 | INSANE DIRT BIKEPARK @ TEXPLEX. The DIRTY STREET CONTEST is a Bmx contest held on a skatepark style course made out of dirt and wood features held near Dallas Texas at Texplex Park. The course is very unique and really fun to ride, This video is of the Am and Pro contest that went down and also the Bunny Hop contest and Best trick contest. During the contest the winds were very strong making it very difficult to ride but everyone still tried their hardest to make the best of the situation. Max Vu ended up getting hurt during practice when the wind messed him up on a jump resulting in a injured hand/wrist which he still rode on but when finals came around he had to sit out due to the pain. I tried my best to film the contest but I was also running around so much I didn't film everyone riding but tried to capture the most I could(sorry if I missed anyones runs or tricks). Thanks for Texplex and Chad Osburn for throwing such a rad contest I can't wait for the next one! This course is permanent so it will be open to the public all year so if you live close I recommend checking it out!
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
