Viki Gomez celebrates 20 years of being sponsored by Red Bull!

There are not very many riders that are able to make their career as a professional BMX rider last 20 years, and there are even fewer that are able to hang on to the same sponsor that long. Viki Gomez is celebrating 20 years with Red Bull making for a big career and sponsor milestone. Check out this video where Viki talks about his time with Red Bull, along with a look at him bouncing all around the world in that time, laying down amazing flatland riding, winning contests and awards, and much, much more.

April 13, 2023

Kriss Kyle floated a wild idea to Red Bull and they made it happen.

Over the years we’ve seen Red Bull support some really wild projects for their team, and today they raised the bar once again! Kriss Kyle had an idea of riding up in the sky, and they cooked up a plan to float a bowl 2,000 feet up under a hot air balloon. We can’t imagine what went into making this one happen, but they figured it out and Kriss made the most of it. Here’s a look at this crazy setup, along with some wild riding from Kriss. That back rail ice was unreal. This is a must see, even if you aren’t a fan of heights.

“Limits do not exist for BMX rider and Red Bull athlete Kriss Kyle who has achieved something seemingly impossible. With a skatepark suspended from one of the world’s largest hot-air balloons, Kriss Kyle floats over 2,000 feet above ground, showcasing an array of tricks suspended in mid-air for his latest pioneering BMX film.

Red Bull – Croatian BMX Vacation

May 25, 2022

Red Bull coming through with a new one from some time Marin Rantes, Daniel Dhers and Senad Grosic (It’s been forever since we’ve seen him pop up in a video!) throwing down on ramps set up around Rovinj, Croatia! As expected, they went above and beyond with the setups and it lead to a bunch of great riding footage, especially having it mixed in with this city. This video also has a behind the scenes look at what went into making this one, which is definitely interesting to see as well!

“The picturesque coastal town of Rovinj in Croatia is world-renowned for a number of things. The beaches, the architecture, the people, the vibes. The list is long but few would include “BMX destination” in it. Stone-paved 16th century streets aren’t really ideal to cruise on 20-inch wheels, but that sure didn’t stop Marin Ranteš dreaming about setting up features all around the town. By the time these dreams came to fruition the Croatian local had became an international BMX park heavyweight with the likes of Daniel Dhers & Senad Grosic on speed dial. Both wasted no time, packed their bikes and joined Marin for a Croatian BMX vacation.” – Red Bull
