Courage Adams returns to Nigeria to build the first-ever skatepark in Lagos, giving local BMX fanatics the opportunity to push the limits of the local sports scene.

The film duration is 45 minutes.

After the film, there will be a discussion on the culture and opportunities of extreme sports in Estonia. The panel will feature Ardo Oks (BMX racer, multiple Estonian champion, Baltic champion, and participant in the Pump Track World Cup series), Liis Lokk (BMX rider, who placed 11th in the European Games final in 2023 and competed in Simple Session), and William Kass (BMX rider and coach, who has participated in extreme sports competitions both in Estonia and abroad). The discussion will be held in Estonian and moderated by sports museum researcher and ERR sports journalist Johannes Vedru.
