HOLESHOT CHALLENGE AT SAN DIEGO BMX ! SO MUCH FUN ! CAME AWAY WITH A PODIUM AND GOOD TIMES! SHOUTOUT TO TB AND SD BMX FOR A SICK EVENT!

Massive S/O to Vincent Pelluard & Mariana Pajon for letting me stay at their place!
SUPA-X – The New Standard in Stiffness!
SUPA-X Handlebar
It’s no secret that the 31.8mm oversize standard is stiffer than the traditional 22.2mm used in the past. With quite a few brands now offering 31.8 as their default option for adult riders, we wanted to take the concept even further. Having already seen the strength and rigidity benefits of widening the clamping area with our HeadSpace range of stems for MTB, we knew there could be a performance benefit for BMXers.
Today’s PRO riders are putting their equipment to the test in ways not seen in the past. These demands coupled with modern riding styles and techniques mean that a stiff and precise front-end is not only essential but also beneficial for faster and more efficient lap times! With our new SUPA-X handlebar we

2024 UEC BMX Racing European Championships - Verona (Italy).
31 May - 2June 2024
The BMX Olympic Arena, a big and modern facility built in 2013 is regarded as one of the best in Europe and elsewhere. Over the years, it has hosted a European Championships (2016), rounds of the UEC BMX European Cup and World Cup. The awarding of these Championships is fully supported by the City of Verona, and especially its newly elected mayor Damiano Tommasi, demonstrating his vocation to sport, the Italian Cycling Federation and its President Cordiano Dagnoni, who we have close ties with, and who believes in this discipline which, although it is young in terms of cycling tradition, is already one of the key disciplines on the Olympic programme.
