On April 25–26, we celebrated nine years of Hungary’s only indoor BMX Flatland school—and the largest venue of its kind in Europe. To mark the occasion, we hosted an international open contest featuring 11 riders from abroad, alongside Sport Zone members and riders from across the country.
Some guests arrived early, turning the entire week into a series of great sessions. Many of them spent time riding with our younger riders, which proved to be an inspiring experience for everyone involved. From the start, the atmosphere was something special.
The whole weekend stood out for its relaxed, positive vibe. There was no typical contest pressure—just high-level riding, strong community spirit, and a shared passion for flatland. On Saturday evening, we gathered for dinner at Sport Zone while the jam continued, with even the judges joining in. It felt like we’ve reached a turning point, highlighting the need for more camp- and jam-style events in the future. This was easily our best event so far—more like a flatland camp than a traditional contest—and something we will definitely build on next year.
