Highlighting the 2010 Gatorade Free Flow Tour is the addition of BMX dirt to the discipline roster - a first in the Tour's six-year history. Travelling to Da Compound (Calif.), Windell's Camp (Ore.) and to Dayton, Ohio stop of the legendary DK Dirt Circuit, the Gatorade Free Flow Tour will hold three BMX dirt competitions over the course of the summer.
In another first for the amateur circuit, the Gatorade Free Flow Tour will also raise the age limit of all of its skate and BMX contests to 21.
"We are excited about the stellar park lineup for the upcoming season of the Gatorade Free Flow Tour," said Kenny Mitchell, action sports team manager for Gatorade. "And the addition of BMX dirt coupled with opening skate up to a new age range allows us to bring the 2010 Tour to a whole new group of young skaters and riders so Gatorade can continue to fuel the progression of action sports by helping identify the best amateur talent out there."
For 2010, the Gatorade Free Flow Tour will return to standout parks the Department of Skateboarding (Portland, Ore.) - who hosted the Tour in 2005-06 - and Kona Skatepark (Jacksonville, Fla.), who hosted in 2008 and produced GFFT skate park champion Timmy Knuth. Typically a skate-only park, Kona will open its doors to BMX riders for a BMX park contest on Aug. 1.
For the sixth consecutive year, the Gatorade Free Flow Tour schedule includes stops at Ecke YMCA in Encinitas, Calif. and to Petaluma, Calif.'s Ramp Ratz - the only two parks to hold that distinction. The Tour will also hold contests at top parks including Rye Airfield (fifth consecutive year), Charmcity Skatepark (Baltimore, Md., third year in a row), Incline Club (Lakewood, N.J., third year), MIA (Miami, Fla., second year), and the Epic (Rocklin, Calif., second year).
