2018 Vans BMX Pro Cup Huntington Beach – Course Preview & Practice

Leave a Comment

Get a course preview and a look at the 2nd day of practice for the 2018 Vans BMX Pro Cup stop in Huntington Beach!

With the practice sessions for the 2018 Vans BMX Pro Cup heating up, GoPro caught up with Kris Fox or a hot lap around the bowl for a course preview. Hit play to take a ride with Kris, then check out more action from the 2nd day of practice below!

“We strapped a GoPro HERO6 to Huntington Beach local and Vans Team rider Kris Fox to give you all a look around this brand new built concrete park on the sand at the Vans US Open of Surfing.” – Vans

“Today was the second day of practice for Vans Pro Cup 2018 at Vans US Open, but for most riders it was their first time riding the course. Compared to the first practice on Saturday morning, today’s session was way more crowded and hectic. Instead of simply cutting together the highlights in one or two trick clips, I thought it would be interesting to really show the riders getting used to the course and figuring out their lines. This video was filmed in two hours and even in that time you can see how some dudes continue to refine their lines. Overall, it’s pretty incredible to see how quickly they’re getting used to the bowl and I can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with over the next few days. This is going to be an amazing contest.” – Ride BMX

Here’s a raw cut Matt Ray put together from a session he caught at Rye Airfield. This is all chest mount footage, so it gives you a decent look at his perspective as he’s cruising the park airing the quarters, doing flairs, doing a few lip tricks and more.

“Went to Rye for a quick hour session with my GoPro 5 on my chest mount for a bit. I was going to edit this a bit more but decided this is enough. Enjoy!”

“I hit up the streets of Montreal, Quebec, Canada on my birthday to continue my GoPro BMX City series. I battled the below freezing temperatures, but still rode through the city for a few hours hitting some amazing street spots, riding on moving vehicles, dodging cars and pedestrians but did not have to dodge security for some reason.” – Billy Perry

The latest from GoPro has arrived… Take a look at the GoPro Hero 6 Black that is available worldwide now for $499.99!

Is it time for a new camera? GoPro have released their GoPro Hero 6 camera for all of you to get your hands on.

The big one is that the camera now utilizes 4K at 60 frames per second and it can also film at 1080P at 240 frames per second for crispy slow motion shots. Add that capability in with their new GP1 chip that optimizes the capture for smoother stabilized footage and vastly improved image quality, which is a big improvement over the Hero 5. Add in that it’s waterproof up to 33 ft without a housing and you have a high quality, durable and affordable camera that you can take anywhere you go. Below you can get a taste of the quality this little camera can produce…

“Walk away from every adventure with incredible looking footage—and an awesome story to share. Introducing HERO6 Black with QuikStories. It’s a whole new game, and a whole new GoPro.”

Need to edit your footage? No need for a computer, you can edit the footage right on your phone like it has in the past, just more efficiently and automatically with the QuikStories app. GoPro have also improved the WiFi transfer rate, so it has never been faster and easier to create a video in high quality with little effort!
