What you need for a bike stunt show

A bike stunt show needs more than stunt bikes and ramps. You also need landing and protective mats, spare repair supplies, barriers, weather cover and equipment for announcements and lighting. This shopping list helps you prepare the course, protect riders and spectators, and keep the site usable before, during and after the show. Use the expected audience size to decide how many seats, bins, tables and safety barriers to bring.

Tips

Bring at least one landing mat for every main landing area, plus protective mats around sections where a rider could slide or fall. Add fall protection blocks wherever ramps or quarterpipes leave exposed edges.
Pack a repair kit with spare wheels, a bike pump, tire levers and Allen key sets. Check the stunt bikes before opening and keep the tools and spares beside the course, not in a distant storage area.
Set out crowd control barriers and traffic cones before spectators arrive. Leave a clear visitor route and keep safety vests available for every volunteer working near the course or access route.
Plan power and sound together: test the battery-powered speakers, wireless microphones, mixer, LED spotlights and extension cords before the crew briefing. Bring enough cable length to keep walkways free of trip hazards.
For an outdoor show, provide party tents for the crew, equipment or waiting area and bring waste bins, tables and chairs according to your registration count. Confirm deliveries at least 24 hours before setup so missing furniture or catering supplies can still be replaced.

Frequently asked questions

What safety equipment do I need for a bike stunt show?: Prepare stunt bikes, ramps, quarterpipes, landing mats, protective mats and fall protection blocks. Provide helmets, knee pads, elbow pads and back protectors for riders, plus safety vests for crew working near the course.
How many crowd barriers and traffic cones do I need?: Measure the full edge of the stunt course and add barriers for every public-facing section, with extra pieces for entrances and restricted access points. Place cones along the visitor route and around equipment; count them after the site inspection rather than estimating from the audience size alone.
What should I bring to repair stunt bikes on the day?: Bring at least one bike pump, one set of tire levers and one Allen key set, plus spare wheels matched to the bikes being used. Keep the repair supplies at the course and test every pump, tool and replacement part before the show.
When should I buy or confirm equipment for a bike stunt show?: Confirm stunt bikes, ramps, quarterpipes, mats, barriers and technical equipment at least 2–4 weeks before the show. Recheck deliveries and test batteries, cables, microphones and lights at least 24 hours before setup.
