Fox Cable Networks today announced that it has reached an agreement with DIRECTV and Verizon FiOS to launch On Demand service for FUEL TV, the only television network covering the lifestyle and culture of action sports, including skateboarding, snowboarding, surfing, BMX, freestyle motocross, and wakeboarding.

Each month FUEL TV On Demand will showcase 10 original hours of programming, while a high rate of refresh will keep action sports enthusiasts accessing the service on a regular basis.

“FUEL TV continues to grow and expand its distribution options,” said CJ Olivares, FUEL TV’s General Manager. “Our viewer is active and tech savvy, and will want to watch shows on their schedule. Our new On Demand service will allow skaters, snowboarders, and surfers to get out and do what they love, and still be able to catch their favorite shows on FUEL TV On Demand when they want to. And we couldn’t think of better partners than Verizon FiOS and DIRECTV to launch this exciting new service.”
