"MALAS COSTUMBRES" - BMX ARGENTINA 

In the great nation of tango, bmx is lived in the wildest way, in Argentina bmx is lived so intensely that despite the economic difficulties, the boys manage to go on a trip to compete in the great street jams that take place, they do it in cities like Buenos Aires, Nueva Córdoba or Rosario.

IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS

Although poverty is abundant in the poor neighborhoods and in the remote towns there are bmx riders who have reached high levels of professionalism, boys with precarious bicycles or boys who work 9 hours a day to keep a bike in good condition that allows them to go riding. every night without exception... The boys in Argentina do not know the limits, when they decide to dream they make anything possible regardless of the lack of resources.

LEAVING THE ABSURD SOCIETY

In Argentina, bmx riders have adopted a relaxed lifestyle in which they choose to look for jobs that give them the opportunity to use their free time to ride bmx or go on a trip to compete or simply to meet new spots and new riders.

The boys in Argentina have been in charge of building a fairly solid and wild bmx culture despite the great difficulties there are to get good sponsorships, despite the difficulties they have managed to change the course of things turning the Argentine scene into a emerging power of bmx freestyle.

THE MOST UNDERGROUND SCENE

The brutality of the Argentine scene is somewhat surprising since there are several sub-scenes in the provincial capitals, where the boys make the streets an "amusement park", in any city you visit in Argentina you will find professional riders riding bmx wildly in the streets .

Argentina is possibly the scene where bmx is lived with more passion, where the boys ride wildly for love and that is what makes Argentina a unique and special scene.
