Nike’s Pool Party

Nike presents The Pool – a project that transforms an ex-local authority swimming pool in Dagenham, East London, into a world class BMX park. We’ve drained over 1.5m litres of water and set to work on creating something very special, but riders of all abilities need to be quick as this fantastic building is set for demolition. The Pool will be free to ride, take lessons or just watch the action with local school sessions starting 16th May. The 4-week programme of core events, community interaction and beginner workshops run through to Sunday 12th June with bikes, supervision, pads and helmets available for those who need them.

Love this idea and I’m quite jealous of anyone in East London who has the opportunity to see this before it’s torn down. Check out Defgrip’s blog for some gorgeous still shots from The Pool including action photos and the rules and regulations.
