Hit play and check him out crushing street spots and flip whipping doubles at the trails!

“Our Australian distributor, BMX Militia recently took notice of young Lewis (17 yrs old), and mentioned him to us as a potential rider for Volume/ Demolition. Needless to say we were 100% into the idea and was floored on how good he is. Lewis and friend/ filmer, Chris Whyte whipped this video up for his welcome edit and came back with some heavy bangers for it too. You’ll definitely be seeing a lot more from Lewis in the near future, stay tuned…

Alexander “Shurva” Rudenko – Urban Location

October 5, 2015

Here’s a real interesting spot for a BMX video. Alexander “Shurva” Rudenko did a little exploring and came across what appears to be an abandoned bridge project over in the Ukraine. Watch as he cruises a few different setups on the bridge making for a real good watch. Definitely crazy to see something this big in the middle of a city just left in shambles like that.

“Each rider know the feeling when tired to ride on the same places. Looks like Alexander Rudenko decided this issue.
