Sister Session Documentary

This is awesome. It gives you a look at some of the crap girls have taken trying to get their place in BMX. It’s also good seeing more girls killing it on a bike now days. Take a peek at this documentary because I think it will open up your eyes a bit to what the future holds. Definitely want to see more girls on bikes.

“First seen at the Bicycle Film Festival this past season, the full ‘Sister Session’ short film is now available to view online. Documenting the women competing in the Simple Session BMX jam, the film is a behind the scenes look at women going big, crashing hard and pushing each other to rip it in a male dominated sport.

Women’s BMX is a small but tight and growing community, making their way to big competitions around the world. This film captures their first time at a major event like Simple Session.
