BMX PUNTA ARENAS

PUNTA ARENAS is a small city in Magallanes, at south of Chile (South America, if you're still lost haha)
... Really at the south!  :)

The weather its pretty cold all year although in summer is not that bad :)

Anyway,  I'm still impress of how many riders there are! There are more than 10 girls riders and you all know that's a LOT, so imagine how many boys bmxers are!

I remember when I went in January of 2010, there were tons of riders but not really much where to ride at. This was the jumpbox they had, besides a couple other ghetto ramps.

They use to ride a lot of street as well, including one of the most important plaza in the city. As usual, people (not riders) didn't like that and they keep saying that those young kids where not doing anything but destroying a national building. We all know that nobody rides street to DESTOY something... If it happens its just cause its not build properly hahah. Anyway, they got all together and went to talk to the government that if people wanted them out there, they needed somewhere else to go and ride, meaning, they needed a bikepark... long story short, GEOPARK, an oil and gas company...yup, nothing to do with BMX, but they wanted to help the community, and that's what they did. They built some ramps and for the inauguration they did a BMX contest with riders from all over South America.  
That's when the sport started to get bigger there, the people would know about the activity the kids where doing and they would support it, as well as the government building more parks. 
After that, GEOPARK did two more contest, another one in Punta Arenas, and a third one in Puerto Natales (another city in Magallanes). Not only riders from South America participated but also Dennis Enarson , Nina Buitrago and Colin Mccay were part of it!!!

The union and hard work from all the Punta Arenas' riders has made all this possible, I really admire they're participation. This is what we need everywhere to keep make BMX alive!

Anyway, BMX keeps getting bigger as well as the contest. This next one is in October 29-30 in the new concrete park Punta Arenas has! Be part of it!!

Here are some pictures of this beautiful city!!

See? its not THAT cold always!! (that's my mom!)

I promise those are the best raspberries in the world!!!
 h
Sheeeeheeeeheeps!

Oh yeah.. if you wanna come back you must kiss the Patagon's foot!

SEE YOU THERE!
