Head coach of the Russian BMX team Pavel Kostyukov told that he is satisfied with the level of competition at the Alfa-Bank Russian BMX Freestyle Championship.
The competition was held in Kazan. Nikita Fominov and Ekaterina Kruglova won.
— The Russian Championship was very tense and emotional. It was interesting to watch the youth: Lyubishkin, Fominov, Aliev were very well prepared and showed good hands, good injuries. Irek Rizaev couldn’t handle the emotional component – he really wanted it, he tried very hard, but he made several mistakes. Kazan received us very cordially. Yesterday was Youth Day and our championship became an integral part of this celebration.
The girls didn’t succeed in their plot. Ekaterina Kruglova defended her champion title from a strong position and with confidence. I saw how worried her parents were about her, it’s always nice to watch that, very touching.
The competition at the championship was interesting, close, the quality of tricks is improving, the competition is also improving, which makes me happy as head coach. Young people see worthy examples with whom they can fight; I really liked what I saw today.
“Then we will have the Russian Freestyle Cup stage in mid-July, then the Russian BMX Racing Championship in Saransk and the next stage of the Russian Freestyle Cup there. We have a pretty tight schedule of starts, events every week in various disciplines,” Kostyukov told .
The competition was broadcast on the channels of the Match holding company.
