Swatch is the title sponsor of the world-renowned Battle of Hastings BMX competition, being held from September 7th to the 10th at the world’s biggest underground BMX and skatepark.
A favourite among BMXers worldwide, it’ll bring top riders to Source Park on the south coast of England. There they will battle it out on unique courses, including beachside obstacle the Swatch High Air. A custom-built quarter pipe ramp, located on the beach, pays homage to similar Swatch BMX events of the early ‘90s.
The Battle of Hastings stands out for its unique team format, as eight captains pick three of their favourite riders to ride alongside them and accumulate points. Over the weekend, the crews will battle it out across five formats to be crowned the overall winners.
The nine-time world champion BMX flatlander, Matthias Dandois, will be in attendance for a signing session and to demonstrate his considerable skills.
More information on the Swatch Battle of Hastings is available on Swatch’s website and social media channels.
