New Format:
“For 2011, Nike 6.0 completely changed the format for its annual BMX Pro in Huntington Beach. This year combines street and ramps in a weeklong team event featuring live jam sessions with three-minute video parts to truly put the riders and course to the test.
Five three-man teams will compete on the course’s mixed rails, ledges, and transitions, allowing the most progressive riders to shine. The teams will ride the course Monday through Friday, and the team filmer will capture the action to create the best video part possible…
Then on the finals weekend, the teams will compete in two live jam sessions. The jam sessions combined with the points they earn from their video part will determine which team takes the title BMX Pro title.” -Nike 6.0
