BIO
Our rider/freerider, Alex Valls, has chosen to place his trust in our body protectors. Driven by boundless energy and ambitious goals, he sometimes explores the limits of his performance, which can lead to falls. However, thanks to our equipment, he can push his limits in complete safety.
Why RXR?
The first time I had an RXR product in my hands, I wasn’t sure what to expect. All protection brands claim to be better than the others! It was only when I was able to compare their products to what I was riding before that I realized the difference! ASA technology, combined with the thickness of the stone guard, makes it unique on the market in terms of shock absorption. I like to remind skeptics that if the army has chosen their technologies from all those available, it’s not by chance!
Which vest do you use?
I mainly ride the Cyb-R. It’s a little wider, so provides a little more protection. With all the stupid jumps I’m taking, you can never have too much protection!
A crash anecdote?
Before finally deciding whether to ride for RXR, they lent me a Bullet so I could try it out for a few days. I was filming a video project at the time, and had to jump a new hump for the first time. On the first try, unfortunately, I was 50 cm too short and had to jump off the bike into the air… I fell on my bike after a 15m flight! That day, I wore the Bullet and was very lucky, because apart from some stiffness the next day, I had no particular injuries. Luck and chance, of course, are part of the game when you fall, but luck comes from choosing the right equipment.
Alex, very active on the networks, is one of our best image providers!
