FMX Star Andre Villa Hits Up FreestyleXtreme For His UK Arenacross Kit

FMX hero and GQ Magazines Sexiest Man in Norway Andre Villa is a star of numerous Red Bull X-Fighter, FIM World Championship and Night of the Jump events events.

While he has performed his Freestyle tricks most frequently in America and mainland Europe, he hasnt had quite so many appearances over in the UK. Until now!

Villa has been drafted in to take part in the FMX section of the new UK Arenacross series and the Norwegian Fox Racing and Monster Energy athlete needed a customised kit to wear for the remainder of the shows. So, without his US pals to hand, he turned to FreestyleXtreme to personalise his new Fox kit for him. Check it out!

Based on the Fox 360 Vibron MX kit, you can see the special badges weve added that only any proper sponsored athlete has access to.

If you want to see Andre Villa in action, there is still time to catch him in the UK Arenacross FMX show on 2nd February at the LG Arena in Birmingham and Echo Arena in Liverpool on 10th February.

UK Arenacross At the London O2 Arena

Last weekend the O2 Arena in London was home to the first ever round of the UK Arenacross series. Taking the best elements of outdoor racing and squeezing them into a purpose-built arena track, Arenacross offers a condensed spectacle that is great for audiences to enjoy.

As a new event, the 2013 series is just a four date tour (later heading to Belfast, Birmingham and Liverpool) but we hope the combination of MX racing and Freestyle Motocross gets the popularity and attention that it deserves for future shows!

Take a look at the video above to see what happened on the day. Dont forget to head over to the official Arenacross site to pick up tickets for the forthcoming shows.
