These events, supported by the Consell Català de l’Esport, culminated in a spectacular final at the Calafell skatepark on 2 September, giving the talented local competitors the chance to take on the best in the world at Extreme Barcelona.
Street BMX will take centre stage alongside other exciting categories such as the BMX PARK MEN & WOMEN UCI C1 Competition, the Hot Wheels Superchargers Junior Final and the PARA BMX Contest, which will also take place in the Street Plaza.
