Nitro Circus Junior Games 2023

September 16, 2023

Check out highlights from the Nitro Circus Junior Games in Hamburg, Germany!

The Nitro Circus Junior Games rolled through the I-Punkt park over in Hamburg, Germany the other weekend. A ton of the young and up and coming riders stopped out to throw down, along with Caiden Cernius who we didn’t expect to see there. Either way, there was a bunch of great riding that went down and the future is looking bright. Take a look!

“We stopped by the I-Punkt Skateland at the Nitro Circus Junior Games 2023 and were shocked! What the hell is wrong with youth? Do the invited U16 riders actually throw around double whips, barspin flips and 360 double whips all day long, but can’t name a single 187 track?! Tshs!

RESULTS:
1. Lars Kindermann
2. Caiden Cernius
3. Harry Schofield
4. Julius Knapp
5. Max Martin
6. Moritz Schaller
7. Eloy Sanchez
8. Jimi Brandt
9. Noah Prasse

Morgan Wade and The Texas Lasso

June 12, 2018

Morgan Wade invented a new trick during a Nitro Circus show called the Texas Lasso.

So a little over a month ago I posted about winning the best trick contest in the last @nitrocircus show I rode in. This is the footage of the trick I did. To my knowledge (and I've asked around), this is a new one that I'm pretty sure no one has ever done! People were calling it "The Texas Lasso", but it's a one handed double tailwhip. It feels really good to pull something new, and as you can tell by my reaction, something new that no one has ever done! Haha Shout out to @rickymelnik for sending over the clip, and the Nitro crew for filming it! I can't wait to get back on tour with Nitro! #newtrick #bmx #TexasLasso #notaRiversideRollout #michaeljackson #toestand @hoffmanbikes @empirebmx @silencerco @noveske_llc @vortexoptics @ethika @multicampattern @atomichighperf @elitebicyclestx @cmctriggers

As you should know by now, Morgan Wade kicks a lot of ass! Although we don’t see a lot of footage of him these days, he’s still crushing it out on the bike and apparently inventing new tricks. During a recent Nitro Circus show, Morgan pulled off a One Handed Double Tailwhip. Not only is a double tailwhip hard, we’re not even sure how he did it one handed. Either way, we’re pretty sure this is a brand new trick and it looks like Morgan asked around and hasn’t heard of anyone else doing it, so he has named it The Texas Lasso. Not only is it a funny name, but it honestly does look a bit like he’s spinning a lasso around. Stoked on this one.

Nitro World Games 2017 – BMX Semi-Finals Highlights

June 24, 2017

The Nitro World Games are going down this weekend out in Utah and things are starting to heat up! Below you can check out three videos from the BMX Semi-Finals for the triple jump and best trick contests. As you can imagine, a ton of insane riding went down that you’re going to have to rewind and watch a few times to get some of the tricks. Check it out! We’ll have the LIVE STREAM for the Nitro World Games up on the site later today. Things kick off at 3PM Central Time!

“Triples is gnarly. No joke about it. Just before the Semi-Finals was set to happen, Logan Martin took a hard fall and got knocked out. Fortunately it seems like he’ll be okay, but no doubt that he was one of the dudes that was likely to win it. With Logan out, everyone was a bit weary in the beginning, but began firing as usual. Sorry about all the digital zoom…I thought I could hang filming most of it fish and I was both wrong and had some mental/technical issues. I’ll be keeping it simple tomorrow.

And yes the music is more cleared bullshit.

Results (qualify for the finals):
Alex Coleborn
Nick Bruce
Colton Satterfield
Brian Fox
Andy Buckworth
Brandon Loupos
Marcus Christopher” – Ride BMX

“Watch Kyle Baldock, Nick Bruce, Brian Fox, Colton Satterfield, Marcus Christopher, Andy Buckworth, and more battle it out for a chance to compete in the finals of BMX Triple Hit at the 2017 Nitro World Games!” – Vital BMX

“Semi finals is a bit of an underwhelming title for this event, as literally everyone has to do their hardest shit in this four run, two tricks count format to even get into finals tomorrow (which, hey, you know that the finals will be live on ridebmx.com?). So 15 dudes went absolutely ape shit and attempted to throw the hardest tricks they know and probably even some tricks that they’re just hoping to know how to do…

Oh, and I’m sorry that I missed a few tricks. The event wasn’t open to the public and there was no announcer, so people dropped unexpectedly at points.

Film/edit: Ryan Fudger” – Ride BMX

“Triple flips, 1080s, bikeflip combos, and a whole lot of tricks you probably can’t even name. Watch James Foster, Brandon Loupos, Jacob Bailey, Dawid Godziek, Colton Satterfield, and more throw down at Nitro World Games!” – Vital BMX

2017 Nitro World Games BMX Triple Hit Qualifying Results and Highlights

May 17, 2017

The lineup for the 2017 Nitro World Games has been set after a round of qualifying for the BMX Trip Hit competition that brought in 25 of the best ramp riders to throw down. Below you can check out a highlight reel of some of the crazy riding that went down, along with the final results of just who will be heading to the actual contest this summer. Take a peek!

“Nitro World Games qualifying doubled down on Tuesday, with both FMX and BMX Triple Hit competitions happening simultaneously. The BMX Triple Hit contest pitted over 25 riders from around the world, all vying for just eight slots in the semifinal round and a chance to advance to the finals on Saturday, June 24 at Rice-Eccles Stadium.

Riding on his birthday, Nick Bruce certainly had something to celebrate on Tuesday. He came out of the gate strong, scoring an 8.94 and stomping a perfect landing on his first run. Bruce wowed the judges even more on his second, and would never relinquish his lead. Irek Rizaev also sent it on his first run, serving notice with a masterful display that shot him into second place. Rouding out the top three finishers, Kenneth Tencio also quickly got the judges attention with big combinations. The remaining qualifiers are Daniel Sandoval, Colton Satterfield, Dawid Godziek, Marcus Christopher and Andy Buckworth.
