Autumn with Alex Reveles Video

Jan 27, 2012 at 9:44

Alex Reveles is a local from Santa Cruz, CA and has been a part of the MTB scene for many years. About a year ago he moved to a new house with a bunch of property and immediately began to scope new trails and jumps to build. This past December Alex came to us and said he has been doing a ton of work at his new place and would be down to do some filming. We were super stoked on the idea and got together with him and helped dial in some lines to begin filming asap. Alex is one of those riders who's a pleasure to work with from a filmer/photographer perspective. He has so much natural skill and unmistakable style that every shot is a banger. Root One Media is proud to release this new edit with Alex. We’ve put a lot into this project and are very happy with the results. We hope everyone enjoys!

Digging.

Alex getting ready to film some last parts for the edit. Sporting some gear from his newest sponsor, Dark Timbers.

Fat 360 turnbuckle on his trick jump

A-Rev cracking a fat 360 turnbuckle! This was shot this last summer while riding his hardtail. We're planning on making a "Spring With A-Rev" edit on his hardtail, should be sick!

Digging.

Rooster

Getting loose while filming. His kit is super pro and not available in stores!

Ripping some DH

Alex was getting so steezy coming out of this rut berm we had to grab a pic! Can you find the slider?


A few of the many cool things at A-Revs pad.

Dropping in the meadow.

Dropping into the meadow.



Slashin'! A-Rev was just having some fun while we were grabbing some last minute audio and we ended up shooting some video and stills because the light was very nice and it just is a fun part of biking!

Having fun

Sending the step down and loving it!

Boosting the step down

Another angle and boosting the hell out of it!

NFC on the road gap jump

NFC the road gap jump! This jump is directly after the step down and sends over a little road. Very cool and original jump!

Throwing a nac over the road gap jump

Then he owns it with a fat nac!


Alex would like to thank the Huback family, Cam McCaul for the frame, and Dark Timers for the gear!

 Do you think Alex likes steep lips? Smile

Very, very good video-loved it, thanks! Good to see an intro/ talking that actually adds something rather than wastes time like most

 damn i had to pick my jaw up after seeing that video, i think i might even hop in the truck and head over the hill to get some riding in, although i wish that could be my backyard.. thats my goal- to have property where i can have 2-3 different types of riding and the meadow is just the icing on the cake, you got it made. how many acres are you sitting on?

 I haven't seen A-Rev shred since the days of Drop In Season 5, and what I see here, is Alex Reveles' unique "blasting-out-of-the-camera-frame" style which has only been built on since Drop In. Keep sending it A-Rev!

 Every shot is a banger? Ugh. Bangers are moves that truly drop jaws and that very few riders can even attempt to pull. A tabletop is not a banger. Not saying the kid can't ride, just saying we should try not to overuse the word 'banger'.
