Shadow Conspiracy – Kevin Kalkoff “Full Speed”

April 28, 2016

We’re HUGE fans of Kevin Kalkoff here at The Union, so when we catch wind of a new video from him we stop everything we’re doing to watch. Today, The Shadow Conspiracy dropped this dialed new video featuring Kevin putting in work on street spots, ditches and pools during a recent trip to Phoenix! Amazing riding, excellent spots and dialed film work. Don’t pass this up!

“French Shadow rider Kevin Kalkoff spent a week in Phoenix, Arizona last month and proceeded to pedal full speed at every spot he went to. Armed with his signature style and brand new signature Penumbra seat, Kevin laid down some amazing moves that definitely won’t disappoint. Check it out here in our latest Shadow edit!
