New Park Course for BMX

Posted 06/18/2007 07:44:00 by i am vans

As always, the riders who can successfully string together a lot of tricks in lines that utilize as much of the course as possible will be the ones to beat. The addition of more handrails, ledges, and wedges will allow some riders to play more to their own individual styles, dropping big bangers and tech moves in the same run.

Younger riders like Garrett Reynolds and Kevin Kiraly should excel at adapting to the creative course, spinning in and out of the wedges and blasting the box and spine, but the veterans will keep them on their toes with trick bags bigger than the turkey leg booth at a renaissance fair. Watch for guys like Gary Young, if he slows down long enough for you to catch a glimpse, to hit every corner of the course. Josh Harrington, who kills it on rails as well as the big ramps, will also be one to keep an eye on. Everyone will have their own unique way of assembling a run according to their own strengths.

Whoever said, "speed kills" was never a judge at an action sports event. The new Dew Tour ramp set-up is primed to deliver high-speed lines, white-knuckle transfers, and never-before-seen combo moves.
