Nitro Circus LIVE. London, 2013

Travis Pastrana’s Nitro Circus had a tremendous success on their European Tour in 2012 which led to another set of announcements the following year. Both tours had major sell-outs!

I recollected seeing a bunch of craziest stunts in the show which included the 50 feet Gigant-A-Ramp where riders would attempt to land with pinpoint accuracy inside an inflatable Zorb ball. Travis Pastrana gathered 40 of the world’s greatest action sports athletes in a show like nothing the United Kingdom has ever experienced before.

I’ve always loved FMX, especially watching the yearly coverage of the X-Games, so I was beyond excited to see some of my favourite riders. Tom Pages being one of them and WCMX rider Aaron ‘Wheelz’ Fotheringham. Both deserve a blog post of their own – watch this space!

Being a “Circus” would of course include the absolute bonkers, everyone were pushing their limit on their motorcross bikes, BMX, skates, scooters to go up against a range of crazy contraptions; including, a drinks cooler, Barbie car, toy trike, shopping trolley and a boogie board.

Nitro’s thrill-loving daredevils will push the boundaries of sanity revisiting some of Nitro’s sketchiest stunts and jumping new crazy contraptions. With all this mayhem- plus explosive pyro, DJ sets and more – I can’t wait to go again!
