This weekend, the Skatepark Bulle, Switzerland, transforms into a powerhouse of flair, gravity-defying tricks and unrelenting spirit. From 12th to 14th September, the 2025 WCMX World Championships take centre stage — and you won’t want to miss it!
What Is WCMX?
WCMX (short for Wheelchair Motocross) is an adrenaline-fueled action sport where athletes execute spins, flips, grinds and aerial stunts in a skatepark using specially adapted wheelchairs. It’s skateboarding and BMX reimagined, powered by pure determination and courage. Originating from the pioneering work of Aaron Fotheringham, the sport has rapidly evolved into a global movement pushing boundaries.
The Bulle Showdown: World Class on Wheels
Since 2020, WCMX has become a permanent fixture of the “High in the Park” festival in Bulle—a well-loved event organized by Stones Family, welcoming skaters, BMX riders, rollerbladers and WCMX athletes alike.
This year promises yet another high-octane weekend:
- Friday: Qualifications kick off—athletes earn their place in the spotlight.
- Saturday: The WCMX Final commands centre stage under the skatepark lights, offering breathtaking routines and fierce competition.
- All Weekend: The energy continues as part of the broader festival atmosphere—complete with other action sports showcases, music, and community spirit.
Who’s in the Spotlight?
Athletes like David Lebuser have trailblazed this sport, bringing it from obscurity in Germany to headline stages across Europe. His presence at WCMX events reminds us that adaptive sports aren’t just participation, they’re game-changing performance art.
