Pump Track Winter Jam 1.20.18 (600 + Photos)

With the weather looking like it was gonna be really good this past Saturday we decided to do a popup winter jam at the Velosolutions Brooklyn Pump Track and we’re so glad we did! We had an awesome turnout to the event and the track was packed with BMXers and MTber from Long Island, upstate NY, NYC of course and Connecticut!! We were looking forward to riding the dirt jumps but they were still really wet from the storms earlier in the week. But the paved pump track was dry and ready for action.

Since it was a pop up event we only ran 3 competition on the paved pump track. We did Time Trial, Best Style and High Jump. The track layout is a little shorter this time around because of the construction on the property but it actually made the time trial even a little more challenging. It also made the High Jump competition more challenging too but the riders were ready for the challenge and put on an awesome show!

We gave out some cool prizes to the top three riders in each age group (9&Under, 10-15, 16&Over and 35&Over) and we did it grab bag style where each winner had 5 seconds to pick a prize from the prize box. It was fun to watch lol! We also did a raffle of the remaining prizes plus a Hyper M.I.A frame! Super huge shout out to our sponsors DHDWear, Team Corrosive, Free2Ride, TNT Bicycles, Cult Crew, Nutcase Helmets and Hyper Bicycles! Also big shout out to the Barone family for bringing some Aplha Bicycle Products to add to the prizes!!!

It was a awesome day with awesome weather and awesome vibes! We’re looking forward to doing more winter series events at the Brooklyn Pump Track this year. Stay tuned!
