FISE Montpellier 2016 – Street Finals

May 8, 2016

FISE Street Finals went off yesterday and based off this highlight reel, it’s safe to say it was the Courage Adams show! Watch as everyone absolutely slays the course. We were surprised to see Reed Stark didn’t make top three based off this footage, but maybe we’re crazy. Either way, there’s a ton of heat in this.

RESULTS:
1. Courage Adams
2. Joris Coulomb
3. Sullyvan Guaincetre

“The street event at FISE Word Montpellier 2016 was held in a jam format and I must say it was the right decision. So much shit went down in such a short amount of time, and the vibes were tight, just a bunch of like-minded BMX riders having one hell of a session… From the dialed and swaged-out moves delivered via Courage Adams and Reed Stark, to some dudes just straight sending it. I still can’t believe homie who did the ice-to-hard down the rail. Insane!” – Ride BMX

“Originally I was planning on putting out a full indoor winter edit but I started to film late and ran out of time because I’m heading you Europe in a few days, so instead I put out this 5 clip at my parents skatepark in Dundas, Ontario.
