The following film is dedicated to Kevin Robinson
The passing of BMX legend Kevin Robinson was an event that none of us were expecting.
| Kevin had the biggest heart. He is eager for every day. Like he was a little kid going to a carnival. He is enthusiastic for every step he took. He is the proudest parent, loyal, loving, caring and tough as hell. He is one of a kind. He could have the softest heart, but may kick your ass, but only because he loved you. There is no one as tough and sweet as KRob.—Mat Hoffman |
| We’ve known Kevin Robinson for many years, meeting him through our Red Bull family. Just a couple of weeks ago Aaron and I had dinner with him here in NH while he was heading to one of his famous talks/demo up North. We both left that dinner saying “wow, K-Rob is seriously one of the kindest humans ever.” For someone who had accomplished so much in life, he spent the entire dinner talking about his awesome kids, his amazing wife and how much he loves doing his inspirational talks, how connecting with people is his passion.
The world lost one of the good ones. We’ll miss you K-Rob. —Kara Chase |
On a more lighter note. Did Chase just hit NE Style in the snow?
I'm 'only' 33, and maybe it's the increasing responsibilities of adulthood, but lately I've become keenly aware of how important it is to make time to do what makes you happy. In some ways, it's created a sense of urgency which occasionally veers into FOMO territory. But on the other hand, I'm much more appreciative and thankful when I'm in the moment.
Love and sympathy to Kevin's family and friends.
In other news, does anyone know what that speech playing in the background was?
shame. RIP K Rob
