Vans BMX Presents: Alex Hiam “Magic Powers” | VANS | BMX

In the latest film from Vans BMX, “Magic Powers,” Vans team rider Alex Haim proves that the possibilities in BMX are infinite. The past few years of isolation without travel have somehow ignited his mystical abilities, opening a new space for creativity and self-discovery.

To Alex, this project was therapy in the form of self-expression that transcended the limitations of reality. Alex’s sage words of advice after coming out on the other side of this magical journey were: “ Never Give up. Trust the process. Have faith and follow your heart.”
