Welcome to Nukeproof Alex Alanko
Nukeproof are stoked to welcome Swedish slopestyle ace Alex Alanko to the team. Hailing from Djurö (it's located in the archipelago of Stockholm, the English translation is literally Animal Island), Alex joins Nukeproof along via an introduction from our Swedish Nukeproof retailer; Bikester.
A career high of 3rd at Crankworx Whistler’s legendary Joyride event is testament to the bag of tricks Alex has (check out his social media @alexalanko for some insane videos). But away from competition it’s also his work with the Swedish riding community that makes him stand out as an excellent human. Each year he hosts numerous ride camps at his local bike park for 15-20 young riders to coach, with the aim to give back to the community that has supported him and help progress the Swedish scene.
