The Gear
WITH BIG REWARDS, COMES A LITTLE BIT OF RISK
FACT: BMX racing isn’t any more dangerous than other youth sports. Statistics show that kids in traditional sports such as basketball, football, baseball, and soccer suffer more injuries than those who participate in BMX racing.
We speculate that youth BMX riders incur fewer injuries because USA BMX requires protective gear. You simply can’t go on the track without it. While the level or amount of safety gear is up to you, a rider must at least ride wearing an approved helmet, long sleeve shirt, and long pants.
YOUR SAFETY IS OUR #1 CONCERN!
Below are some examples of safety gear that is available to protect every area of your body. These are only examples and riders can wear any brand they chose. While you're only required to wear a helmet, long-sleeved shirt, and long pants, here's an example of a more complete protective gear package. Questions about your gear? Just reach out to us!
Helmet
Jersey
Pants
Goggles
Gloves
Knee Pads
