 28/02/2008 Red Bull Tabua BMX

An Epic Journey to Fiji, featuring Corey Bohan and Corey Martinez.
 
Corey Bohan, the most decorated BMX dirt rider ever embarked on Red Bull Tabua, a unique journey to Fiji in search of never before ridden terrain to capture historic riding moments.

Why BMX in Fiji? Because it's never been done before....

While Corey's competitive history and acclaim are unprecedented in his sport, with back to back to back X Games gold medals and four NORA cups in a row, he traveled to Fiji not in search of further competitive glory, but with the goal of pushing the boundaries of his sport.

Corey teamed up with acclaimed BMX photographer Jeff Zelinski, some master dirt builders and fellow rider Corey Martinez in the hope that they will be able to bring BMX out of the shadows and capture ground breaking, creative photographic moments set to the back-drop of the beautiful and sometime tumultuous Fijian Islands.
 
The best BMX riders in the world set out to see what could be accomplished over a waterfall, on Table Top Mountain or in the forest by the island shore of Sovi Bay. The challenge was greater than first thought. First was the challenge of building rideable terrain in the jungle or on a mountain top. The riders, filmer and photgrapher themselves then had to trek through the jungle with all their gear just to access these areas. Finally, that had to ride and try to perform at their peak when the light was just right for that perfect shot.

The story doesn't end with historic progressive riding. Corey and the team immersed themselves within the Fijian culture and when western pop culture collided with the traditional island way of life, it made for quite an interesting experience for all.
