Red Bull – Three Day Metro Pass: Montreal
You know you’re in for something awesome when Red Bull releases one of their “Three Day Metro Pass” BMX videos. This time around, Corey Martinez, Chris Childs, Matt Nordstrom and Dillon Lloyd had three days to cruise the amazing spots the Montreal, Quebec, Canada has to offer! Hit play and check out some DAMN GOOD riding!
“Corey Martinez gathered a crew together and, with a Three Day Metro Pass in hand, headed to Montreal to enjoy what the city had to offer.
Sitting just a short plane ride away, and having never sessioned the city, before, Montreal was an easy choice. With an extensive metro system at our disposal, Corey, Chris Childs, Dillon Lloyd and Matt Nordstrom took to the streets to experience the French-Canadian metropolis firsthand.
The trip was bookended by sessions at the legendary Olympic Stadium. With nearly every street set-up at our disposal, and minimum security on show, the two days spent there produced banger after banger. Outside of the stadium, the crew found some tucked-away gems at schools and other buildings.
All the while, we enjoyed the different culture there too. Despite being only 40 miles from the US border, Montreal is the largest French-speaking city after Paris. We all had a good time trying to decode the menus, with varying degrees of success.
Even though we had a rain day, the trip overall was a huge success. Everyone rode like madmen, and with no injuries and smiles all around, we couldn’t have asked for much more.”

Red Bull – Vasya Lukyanenko: Industrial
It’s not every day that you get to ride a steel factory in the Ukraine, but Red Bull found a way to get Vasya Lukyanenko in the door for a brief period of time to cruise for one undoubtably very rare session. This factory, which hasn’t shut down once in the last seventy years, kept rolling with production as Vasya got his bike on whatever he could in a short amount of time. The end result is this BMX video that is well worth a watch! You can check out some photos right here, but good luck reading it if you don’t speak Ukrainian.

Perspective on the Future of BMX Contests and Nitro World Games
Generally, we try and stay away from heavily opinionated posts on the site, since we feel our opinion is just one voice of many, many BMX riders around the world and everyone has a different perspective on this sport of ours. But, today we are seeing a lot of discussion about the future of BMX contests after seeing the plan for the Nitro World Games, which is ultimately looking for a new way to expose BMX, moto-x, skateboarding and a few other action sports to the masses in hopes of pumping the industries full of energy and revived life that many feel is struggling to get the attention of the masses anymore. So, we’re going to toss out our perspective and then we’re hoping to get a lot of discussion going in the comments whether it be here, Facebook or really anywhere we can get riders to discuss their ideas or dreams of where to take this thing we call BMX next.
