PRESS RELEASE Monday October 3rd 05/04/2016 FISE World Chengdu, China. All you need to know! Teaser: The event FISE World Series last stop will take place at Nanhu Park in Chengdu, China on October 28, 29, 30. Four disciplines will be feature, UCI BMX Freestyle Park World Cup, Skateboarding, Roller Freestyle and Mountain Bike Slopestyle. This will be the last stop in 2016 and the winner of the overall of each discipline will be crowned. The Setup Nothing less than 3 parks are designed to fit the huge space of Nahu Park. While BMX and Roller riders will share the same park were many lines and style are allowed, the Skateboard will have its own Park specifically designed for the discipline and the Mountain Bike Slopestyle will offer massive obstacles just next to BMX Park. As always the courses are designed by FISE AREA, this the guaranty that the parks are made by riders for the riders. Here are the 3D views of the beasts. 1
UCI BMX Freestyle Park World Cup and Roller Freestyle BMX and Roller Freestyle riders will be spoiled on this FISE World Series last stopover with one of the biggest parks that it is possible to offer. It is going to be massive and so fun with lines all over the place, king size set ups like the famous curved wall making its comeback in front of the fun box. The step up is replaced with a new, more engaging ramp which will take the form of a big volcano with an extension that could become a sub box, knowing how magic and daring the riders can be. Without any doubt, the best specialists of both disciplines will know one more time how to surprise us during what should be a memorable battle for victory in the overall ranking. Skateboard Skateboarders will have a smile on their face; they will ride again on their own skatepark during the FISE World Chengdu in China. Rails all over the place, stairs, flat ledges or going down, quarters to get speed, the Chicago set up that leads to a brand new very long table with a long rail and a manual pad to perform all kinds of combinations... Let's not forget the «Up», a set up that is similar to these handicap access ramps that all streeters love. Like last year, this welcoming and complete park should be the scene of a big skateboarding contest. 2
Mountain Bike Only the FISE Area team knows the secret of this 100% unseen set up of the slopestyle course awaiting the top seeds of the discipline. Let's put it simple, the starting point is 6 meters high, it is followed by a 7 meters long step down, then 2 big doubles, 8 and 6 meters, a step up, a dirt wall to make a U-turn that leads directly to another step down and a 5 meters double. In short, the contest promises to be unique, intense, with a lot of airs. 3
