Alex Hiam

Alex Hiam has been a competitive BMX rider for more than a decade. At only 12 years old, Haim held the distinction of being the youngest pro to have a signature frame and full bike. His incredible talent at such a young age has laid the groundwork for him to become one of the top riders in the world, and his wide-eyed outlook on life has made him one of the deck’s most popular individuals. Alex created a massive fan following of both kids and industry heads in the early days of his career by pushing himself through a series of better-than-the-last video parts.

But it’s only been a few years since Hiam has truly come into his own. He’s honed his riding to the point where he can pull off unbelievably difficult tricks and his style is on par with the greatest. Hiam’s progressive, well-rounded, and very skilled riding has put him in a position to win any event he enters. The 2018 X Games Dave Mirra Best Trick event, for example, was won by Haim with a tailwhip-to-tailwhip nosepick on a sub-box, which he pulled on his first try merely as a warm-up to what he really wanted to accomplish. His combination of impossible technical riding and full-send unpredictability is what makes him so entertaining to watch. He keeps up with his fans on Instagram @alexhiam, where he boasts more than 120,000 followers.
