The FISE Montpellier BMX Street contest always brings out a ton of heavy hitters that are no strangers to laying down crazy grind combos and some ridiculous lines. As expected, this years contest was no different! Here’s a highlight reel giving you a look at what guys like Courage Adams, Anthony Perrin, Matti Lasgoity and more all threw down during their time on the course. Courage Adams ended up coming home with the top spot and it’s pretty easy to see why after you see some of the lines he pulled off! Hit play!

“FISE the biggest event in europe for actions sports had an amazing street park for skateboarders and also for BMXers playing around in a jam/best trick format, a bit messy but definitely entertaining thanks to the good will and good riding of Courage Adams, Alex Donnachie, Mati Lasgoity, Liam Zingbergs, Joris Coulomb, Anthony Perrin and the revelation of this comp : Emeric Michon, the new french shredder.
