Re-Up: Red Bull – Kriss Kyle In Dubai

Leave a Comment

It has been a slow weekend, so we figured it would be a good time to re-up Kriss Kyle‘s latest Red Bull video from Dubai! We’re not sure how much time and money went into making this one happen, but Kriss got access to water parks, skyscrapers and other landmarks all over Dubai where he stacked some amazing riding on some unique setups. Add in some awesome film work by Matty Lambert and you have a BMX video that you won’t want to pass up.

“Kriss Kyle lands incredible stunts on his BMX across Dubai’s most famous landmarks.

Home to the world’s tallest building the Burj Khalifa, Dubai is renowned for its breathtaking skyline. With stunning buildings, huge water parks and bustling souks, a place like this is the ultimate playground for thrill-seekers. Who would have thought that it’s also a BMXer’s dreamland? That’s what Kriss Kyle discovered when he had the opportunity of a lifetime to explore the city by bike, and land tricks you’ve never seen before. If you’ve watched the videos about the Burj Al Arab fireworks during the 2019 New Year, then expect even more fireworks here.

From cavemanning out of a helicopter onto the Burj Al Arab, to tricking it out on some of Dubai’s most famous landmarks, with barspins and all sorts of tricks you can imagine (and unimaginable) Kriss captured it all for our eyes to feed on.

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.

Unit 23 Skatepark – Jingle Buels Jam 2017

Check out what went down at the Jingle Buels Jam at Unit 23 Skatepark in Glasgow!

Whenever Unit 23 Skatepark throws a jam, you know it’s going to be a wild one! Here’s some highlights from the Jingle Buels Jam that went down the other weekend. As expected, it was a packed house and a ton of great riding went down from locals to the Pros like Kriss Kyle. Hit play and take it all in!

“It’s been a while since we’ve seen a jam at our local Unit 23 skatepark in Glasgow, Scotland but Chaz Mailey and the crew there thought it was about time to get everyone together again. The invites were sent, Bucky put on ice and the big bowl in Hall 1 was the venue. Sit back and enjoy a whole load of roasting from the likes of Kriss Kyle, Chaz and Connor Mailey, young Kieran Reilly and more.

“Having not put on a BMX event at Unit23 for a minute or two, we decided to have a bowl jam to end the year. What started as a little ‘friends only’ bowl session, soon turned into a bit of a jam, with speakers, flyers, prizes and Bucky. It’s cool to see the BMX world come together and make things like this happen, even north of the north. We’d like to thank our sponsors for helping us put this little jam together, BSD, Source, DIG, Endless & Seventies. A special thanks goes out to Jimmy’s Iced Coffee for being so down to help out, and a massive thanks to everyone that showed up and made it such a rad time! Here’s to next year! Here we go.” – Chaz Mailey / Unit 23
