A lot of people say security is tight in Hong Kong. We had a few problems but nothing like I had expected. The police over there are pretty scary, though the local people seem to tolerate BMX much more than your average English OAP. Although we did have a somewhat memorable night that involved a homeless man swinging a metal pipe and throwing bamboo javelins.

The Hong Kong BMX scene is amazing! Everyone we met couldn’t have been more friendly and welcoming. We first met the main HK filmer, Bob Chueng, and Merritt rider Sam Lee. But throughout our trip we met so many other good people and had a heavy crew most nights… Shoutout to all the boys, you honestly made our time in Hong Kong unforgettable.

Almost every spot we went to was amazing. Some notable ones would be a crazy pyramid bank spot, which was just behind a ‘playground’ that also doubled as a bowl. Also the whole of the Fanling area – so many good spots.

Brett Decker (an American living in Hong Kong) runs the Instagram account @hkgotmadspots, so we would normally sieve through that, send a handful of screenshots to the group chat and be on our way.
