With so much talent in women’s BMX right now, we felt it was important to recognize the riders who impacted us the most, and so in mid-November, we opened up the opportunity for the community to vote for 7 different categories. Thank you for those who participated (the number of votes was overwhelming) and thank you to the following riders who inspire us to ride every day. We look forward to seeing what 2020 brings and what categories will be added this time next year.
2019 FREESTYLE RIDER OF THE YEAR
Hannah Roberts
She’s someone who has been killing it in park. She may or may not be winning every competition but her style, flow, tricks, and creativity makes her the standout for 2019.
2019 RACER OF THE YEAR
Alise Post-Willoughby
She’s dominating on the track, the gym, the mental game and all that comes with racing. Racers descend down the ramp in 2 seconds at almost 40 mph… quick, who is your 2019 racer of the year?
2019 FLATLANDER OF THE YEAR
Irina Sadovnik
Graceful, quick, dedicated and stylish to name a few, she’s someone who has been killing it on the ground.
2019 STREET RIDER OF THE YEAR
AnahĂ Valentina
She can easily be confused for a park rider, but her urban surroundings are her playground. She might be known for nibblers, but you won’t see her stop having fun because of some skate stoppers.
2019 ROOKIE OF THE YEAR
Keir Sirlin
She may not necessarily be young, but she’s new on the scene and making waves in 2019. She could be a park, street, flatlander or even racer, she’s the rookie of the year making a splash in 2019.
2019 COMEBACK OF THE YEAR
Caroline Buchanan
She’s someone who had to overcome a serious setback, and inspires us all to keep fighting and working to come back even stronger.
2019 BRAND OF THE YEAR
Vans
This is the brand that has provided the most support to women’s BMX this year, and we love you.
