Hi Viktor. Please introduce yourself for people who dont´know you yet.

Hello, my name is Viktor Bakó and I ride bmx 23 years ago.I am from Hungary ,Budapest originaly but I was livin everywhere in this small world.! 23years riding is enugh time to have some injurys wich is together almost 4 years.I know it's a lot... So ,I was a racer back in the days when I had my kid time and after growing up riding with a freestyle bmx with a really heavy setup and 2 breaks but that skatepark riding changed and I rode dirt ,trails,skatepark diferrent kind ,and now I like riding street a lot and bowls.I think at the same time all around riding is the best and I try to follow that..! I got different trophys from Hungarian and International jams and contests and I am lucky to rode Etnies Backyard Jam in 2001 or Nass when it was BalthandWest weekend or 97 Bmx worlds in Eindhoven but I can say I am not a big contest rider anymore .More like filming and having fun with my friends..!;)
