NIKE 6.0 HB BMX PRO

VOTE FOR THE RIDERS YOU WANT TO SEE RIDE

The first-ever Nike 6.0 HB BMX Pro is set to go down in Huntington Beach, California July 23-26. This will be an intense Park comp featuring the heavy hitters going after points and cash in this four-day event.

The 6.0 HB BMX Pro is an invite-only contest, but with a twist to the invite process. The top ten Dew Tour Park riders from 2008 were invited, and they chose the next five athletes to get into the comp. There are still a few spots open, and the final invites are being decided right here on Vital BMX—by you!

To vote, simply send an email to mlosey@vitalbmx.com, and in the subject line, put “Nike 6.0 contest” plus the name of your choice (make sure not to pick someone already invited, and only one vote per person). We will tabulate the votes and then announce the full roster of 20 athletes early next week.

The first-ever Nike 6.0 HB BMX PRO will be touching down south of the infamous Huntington Beach Pier, during the prestigious US Open of Surfing®.  With the loss of the Soul Bowl, Nike 6.0 stepped in to continue the excitement of BMX at the beach. 20 top BMX riders will be invited to compete in this uniquely formatted event, where riders compete in three qualification rounds, accumulating points and cash at every stage. The top 10 riders with the most accumulated points will proceed to the finals, vying for the $30,000 cash purse.

Automatic invites will go to the top 10 Dew Tour Park riders of 2008, who will collectively vote for 5 additional riders. The final five riders will be chosen by global BMX fans via an online contest hosted by VITALBMX.

Riders will compete Thursday- Saturday to qualify for the Finals on Sunday.
