Jason Jensen | 2019, Pioneer, Racer
Known by many nicknames - but mostly as “Juicy Jaws,” Jensen was the quintessential Southern California racer, with long blond hair and a surfer’s tan. For more than half a decade, he did more for his sponsor than just win races. His was the image of a fun-loving BMX kid that everyone wanted to be.

Danny Nelson | 2019, Racer
It all started in 1981 - for six year old Danny Nelson. Over the next 25 years, he’d grow from a young amateur superstar riding for Robinson Racing, into one of the most popular racers in the circuit - representing GT and Powerlite, and finally earning the ABA No.1 Pro title before he'd retire.

Everett Rosecrans | 2019, Industry
No matter what BMX discipline you ride - whether you are racing or freestylin’, Vans shoes have been a rider’s first choice in footwear. And tonight, we are pleased to induct Vans’ original main-man of marketing, who helped make it that way: Everett Rosecrans.

John "Dizz" Hicks | 2019, Freestyle
John Hicks was taught at an early age to go fast ...and to always go balls out. By his early teens, he’d already excelled in racing both motocross and BMX; alongside his older brother Bob. But John really found his groove when he witnessed Bob Haro doing some of the first freestyle tricks at a race in Las Vegas. Fast forward to John practicing spinning tricks continuously, until he got dizzy - his riding buddies gave him a lasting nickname ... “Dizz.”

Jamie Bestwick | 2019, Freestyle
Our 2019 Modern-day Freestyle inductee has probably spent more time in the air than any other Hall of Famer, ever. With a string of NINE straight X-Games Gold medals in Vert, and a grand total of 14 X-Games Gold all together. We are talking about none other than the British BMX import - Jamie Bestwick!
-
Jamie Lilly | 2019, Woman
Much to her father’s delight - Jamie Lilly got hooked on BMX at age five, and would go on to earn seven National Age Group No.1 plates, two Pro Championships and one W#1.

Bruce Brown | 2019, Special Recognition
Technically, Bruce Brown’s contribution to the sport of BMX was merely one minute and thirty three seconds long - but unknowingly, it would become a monstrous spark that would quickly ignite a BMX bonfire.
