Leticia Bufoni Backflips a BMX Bike

October 27, 2017

Apparently Leticia Bufonia should be riding a BMX bike…

If you follow skateboarding, even just a little bit, there’s a chance you have taken notice of Leticia Bufoni who is one of the top female skaters right now. Not only does she shred on a skateboard, apparently she takes to BMX bikes pretty easy because Daniel Dhers was able to teach her how to send a backflip on a BMX bike during their time at Woodward Riviera. Although this is only into the foam pit, it’s safe to say it wouldn’t take much more for her to pull it on resi or a real ramp.

“Leticia is one of the best skaters in the world and she’s not afraid to go fast on a bike either! It’s her 3rd time riding a BMX and she learns how to back flip in less than 6 attempts!” – Daniel Dhers

Besides the strength and obvious design features of the Classic rim, the new Lunar rim includes a greater spoke offset for increased stability and refined adjustability, an overall taller shape, deeper rim bed for easier tire installation, thicker sidewall thickness for dent resistance, a rim lip that helps avoid pinch-flats, all rounded out with a perfect 34mm. width.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70Fha9GnFv0

Here’s some unexpected news that was just announced. The X Games have just announced that they will be doing a second event in 2018 on top of the Summer X Games in Minneapolis, Minnesota! The X Games will be heading down under to Sydney, Australia from October 19th-21st with BMX, skate and Moto-X contests. It does appear to be a slimmer event line up than the one here in the United States, with BMX Park and Skate Park not being apart of the lineup of events. As many of you recall, the X Games used to do events around the globe with multiple stops before cutting back to just one event like they had in the past. This will be the first time the X Games have made their way to Australia, so we’re sure it’s going to get a lot of love. Check out the full details below!

In addition to world-class action sports competition, X Games Sydney will feature musical performances, art installations and a festival experience. The first Australian X Games will have a distinctly Australian flavor, showcasing the beautiful city and culture of Sydney in everything from the course designs to the medals, and highlighting the avid youth culture in Sydney throughout the festival village and live coverage.
