Bringing women’s BMX to new heights, first place qualifier Angie Marino’s enormous<br />

no-hander bowl transfer and effortless big air style granted her the event’s Best Trick<br />

award and a hard-earned <strong>Vans</strong> BMX Pro Cup maiden victory. Women’s BMX legend and<br />

USA riderNina Buitrago took second with a daring feeble grind bowl transfer, while<br />

the Chilean rider Macarena Perez’s impressive tailwhip and high airs put her in third.<br />

“Mexico couldn’t have been a better place to win my first Pro Cup,” Marino stated with<br />

sheer excitement. “The fans are so passionate, they gave me an extra push to go faster<br />

and higher because everyone gets so excited.”<br />

The world title race continues, with pressure mounting on current <strong>Vans</strong> BMX Pro Cup<br />

World Champion Larry Edgar and Spanish rider Teresa Azcoaga, who clinch the series<br />

lead against the world’s greatest professional BMX riders hungry for the coveted world<br />

title. The <strong>Vans</strong> BMX Pro Cup Series World Championships will take place in Málaga,<br />

Spain on September 23 to crown the official 2018 <strong>Vans</strong> BMX Pro Cup World Champion.<br />
