Kriss Kyle Interview | Live Life

Comp Scene. Despite all my sponsors coming off of the back of going to jams and comps, I’ve never really felt like a contest rider at heart, however, I’m always completely blown away when I get invited to the big comps like the X-games and Dew Tour. I’m going to a big Vans contest at Huntington Beach in California at the beginning of August with an insane list of other riders, it’s a total honour to be invited to events like these and definitely not something to pass up when they come around if I can make them. Although I do enjoy the occasional comp, they’re not my main focus at all in riding. I always feel like the pressure for me to perform in front of so many people at a high level is too high, I guess that’s the main reason why I don’t go to many, that and getting snaked all the time by riders that are over competitive. I’d rather just go out with my friends riding and maybe do a bit of filming rather than have to show off in front of a big crowd. Saying that though, if it’s the righ

Are you ready for the ultimate Kriss Kyle profile and a collection of his best BMX videos packed with pure originality?

OH WOW!

This dude constantly finds new ways to blow our minds with tricks and setups that nobody else even thinks of.

It’s almost like he rewrites the rules of BMX with every edit he drops.

I guess that’s what happens when you literally live at a skatepark for a good chunk of your life.

Kriss isn’t your typical BMX rider.

His journey started when his older brother introduced him to BMX at around nine years old. Back then, he rode a super heavy bike that was almost impossible to handle.

Luckily, at 10, he got a 16-inch Haro, and from that moment on, BMX was his everything.

Even though being a pro wasn’t his goal, he knew he just wanted to ride every single day. And that dedication turned him into one of the most creative riders out there.

Kriss’s video projects always have something you’ve never seen before. If it’s not the tricks, it’s the insane setups – or usually, it’s both.

First question is for people who do not know who you are, who are you?

My name is Kriss Kyle and I am a professional bike athlete from Scotland.

You started riding when you were 10, what was the thing that sparked you to get really excited about riding, obviously BMX was the starting point but what was the journey like?

I first got into riding BMX through my older brother, my parents would take me out to the skate park to watch him ride. And I was like, fuck, it just looked like he was having the best time ever. I just wanted to be part of that. So, for my 10th birthday, I begged my mum and dad for a BMX and to my surprise I got one, it was a Harrow 360. it was a 16 inch, and I couldn’t believe they got me it. I was like, holy fuck, this is amazing, and I was just hooked from then on.
