March 15, 2023

Check out Alex Avilla’s section from the “LFS3” DVD!

The “LFS3” sections continue to flow! This time around we get Alex Avilla‘s section that’s packed with grinds, wallrides, flairs and much, much more. As always, Alex delivers with a ton of great riding you won’t want to miss. Check it!

“Alex’s home may be Staten Island, but he has been killing the whole east coast since he was a kid. From entering contests in Hackettstown NJ as a young buck, to doing feeble hard whips at jams in NYC, the dude has simply always been a machine. I’m so stoked that he joined the crew a few videos back. His ender is one of my favorite clips I’ve ever filmed, for obvious reasons.” – Mikey Almodovar
