Connor Lodes OFF Kink

Kink have just announced they have parted ways with Connor Lodes…

Today we unfortunately are announcing that @connor_lodes will no longer be on the Kink Pro Team. We are extremely proud of Connors' Kink Redwood Signature Products we accomplished together, along with the savage footage he has accumulated with Kink over the years. Connor remains a good friend, and we wish him nothing but the best for his future on and off the bike!

Here’s some news that might surprise some of you. Kink have parted ways with Connor Lodes and just made the announcement on Instagram. Connor had originally joined the team toward the end of 2014 and had a productive few years. He has been a little under the radar lately healing up from injuries and more, so we’re not sure why they decided to let him go, but it would appear they’re still on good terms. We are curious if they have plans of adding a new rider to the pro team to fill that spot… We could potentially see Casey Starling making the move up from the AM squad, but we’ll have to wait and see.
