Alex Kennedy Archives

A Nearly Vacation

Alex Donnachie had a bunch of footage from some time in Barcelona, Spain this past winter. Instead of sitting on it for the new Nearly video, he decided to put together this mix featuring Anthony Perrin, Joris Coulomb, Alex Kennedy and Austin Augie going to work on spots. Hit play and take it all in. You already know these guys delivered.

“Post Simple Session this year saw a massive fleet of riders head to Barcelona to catch some rays, spots, coupla’ loose nights and warm up for the upcoming busy period in their schedules. Alex Donnachie originally had this footage allotted for the Nearly 5 DVD but instead he decided to link it into this mix video. Needless to say with the likes of Joris Coulomb, AK, Anthony Perrin, Austin Augie and more, things heat up real fast. This is a must-see today. ”

The Vans crew rolled through the House of Vans London during the Kevin Peraza signature Old Skool Pro Colorway tour. This was a mix of a session, along with a photo show for Eisa Bakos and Jeff Z.. Needless to say, it was a full house and there was no shortage of dialed riding and good times being had. Take a look!

“This past Thursday, House of Vans in London opened up its doors for a huge BMX party featuring a BMX Support Group, Unfiltered photo gallery and video showing, and shredding by Dakota Roche, Kevin Peraza, Kevin Kalkoff, Alex Kennedy, and more. Check it!” – Vital BMX

Nike Shuts Down Europe BMX Team

Leave a Comment

It’s not just Kriss Kyle, the entire European BMX team for Nike has been let go…

Earlier today we caught wind that Kriss Kyle was off Nike, now it looks like the entire BMX program for Nike Europe is done according to Freedom BMX in Germany. That means Simone Barraco, Kriss Kyle, Alex Kennedy, Felix Prangenberg, Daniel Tünte and Moritz Nussbaumer will all be looking for some new shoes to wear when riding in the future. We’ve been hearing rumors that Nike is letting go their entire BMX program, but we haven’t seen anything from Dennis Enarson, Chad Kerley, Garrett Reynolds or Nigel Sylvester as of right now. Either way, it’s a bummer to see a big brand like Nike step away from BMX in Europe.

aaand its over..after 10 amazin years riding for @nike ! forever thankful to #nikebmx @achimkujawski n the all team u are the best 🙌 #bmx

Check out this dialed new one from Endless Mag featuring a bunch of familiar faces getting down on spots around London…

In a city as massive as London, you can count on having an endless supply of spots, which means it’s a massive playground for BMX riders. Endless Mag spent the past year filming with a bunch of different riders in the city, stacking a ton of great clips along the way. Here’s a look at what went down!

“Filmed in London Starring Billy Cooper, Dan Boiski, Lahsaan Kobza, Mike Kirkby, Alex Donnachie, Morgy, Niall Lissenden, Alex Hiam, Dan Paley, Malick Cham, Bruno Hoffmann and Alex Kennedy.

Cult – It’s Later Than You Think / First Strike Teaser #1

Leave a Comment

The Cult team have been busy working on their new “It’s Later Than You Think” DVD…

Here’s a little taste of what the Cult team have been working on lately! We have been getting hints and random bits like this Instagram Compilation, but we finally get a look at some of the clips that won’t be making the cut for the final video. Above is just over 3 and a half minutes of clips that didn’t make the cut from a recent team trip to Texas, but are still super good. We have a feeling the actual video is going to be a serious banger!

“We’re continuing to film “It’s Later Than You Think” but we thought we’d give you a teaser with some of the clips from our first trip to Austin. Dakota Roche, Chase Hawk, Chase Dehart, Alex Kennedy, Sean Ricany more to be add… vvvvv” – Cult

Cult – ATX Side Piece

Leave a Comment

Check out some Instagram clips from the Cult Crew in Austin, Texas…

If you follow the Cult team on Instagram, you probably noticed that the team spent the last week or so out cruising spots, stacking clips for a video that we’re sure we’ll be seeing pop up online some time in the near future. They decided to take all the clips they uploaded to Instagram and whip up a quick edit giving you a taste of what the team got into. If these clips only made the cut for Instagram, we’re sure the final edit from the trip will be nuts. Until then, check out 5 minutes of footage showing you what Dakota Roche, Chase Hawk, Alex Kennedy, Chase DeHart and Sean Ricany got into!
