The Halo Family

Matt Jones is a man that needs no introduction. Red Bull athlete, YouTube Superstar and dedicated thrill-seeker.

His hard work, dedication and determined attitude has got him to the top of the scene – and yet he’s still able to have such a good time doing it. We’re pleased to say that he’s been running Halo since the beginning, and long may it continue.

Legends.

Professional Freeride Mountain Biker, former FMB World Champion and Youtube Superstar, Sam Pilgrim doesn’t shy away from outlandish and extreme stunts. You only have to watch a few of Sam’s videos online to realise he’s the epitome of Freestyle – he’s creative, he does stuff because it’s fun, and you can be sure as hell he will put a smile on your face.

Sam’s been putting our wheels to the test for a very long time now (more years than we care to remember) and we’ve seen him rise to the top of the sport running on Halo. And yet he’s still the most genuine guy out there. In it for the love, seeing what boundaries he can push along the way. What a legend.

Known for his fearless approach to riding and ground-breaking tricks, Kriss Kyle has consistently pushed the boundaries of what is possible on a bike. With an impressive list of accomplishments, including multiple X Games medals and ground-breaking freeride videos, Kriss is a not only a trailblazer but an incredible talent in both MTB and BMX.

Coming from a background in BMX, Leo has transferred those skills into street, park and dirt jumping. One of the most exciting up and coming riders, he has been trying his hand at some Enduro racing with some smooth results.

Alongside progressing his riding he coaches youth riders in Manchester, helping them not only to improve on their riding but their confidence in the sport.

Former UK Dirt Wars Champion, FMB European AM Champion and FMB Pro Tour competitor, Tom Cardy knows his way round a bike.

Growing up in relatively flat Chelmsford means he’s very good at making the best of what’s around, and it’s fair to say his jibbing skills and street style are top class so watching him ride is always impressive.

Tom and Kara now make great YouTube content, including tutorials, guides and entertainment. We think Tom is a great advocate for the sport we love.

The Dirt Jump and Slopestyle scene doesn’t know what’s hit it! Ewan Crosby is a super stylish and steezy up and coming rider in the MTB world and certainly one to keep an eye on.

Supported by various MTB brands including both Halo Wheels and Gusset Components, Ewan was introduced into the scene by none other than fellow Halo and Gusset rider Matt Jones, supporting him with his Helfare clothing brand. We’re keen to see what Ewan’s got planned for the future and are excited to be a part of it!

A master of the wheelie. The original wheelie kid, Jake is now looking to expand his riding into MTB and freestyle riding. With a bright future ahead of him, we expect to see Jake developing his skills and taking on some exciting new challenges in the MTB world. Look out the UK freestyle scene, Jake100 is coming for you.

Finley is an absolute ripper who knows how to lay down the tricks. He’s only young and yet he’s already creating a stir with his impressive skill level. No wonder his social media following has been blowing up.

Finley was only 10 when he started getting noticed and we put him on our 24″ T2 wheels, which kept up with the demands of his crazy trickery.

Remember the name.

Jake Atkinson, whose name shot into prominence in 2023 after clinching the second spot at the Red Bull Roof Ride and conquering the Big White Invitational in Canada, has already carved out a spot for himself in the slopestyle scene. His rise, securing 13th place on the FMB World Tour ranking and bagging the prestigious Red Bull Rookie of the Year 2023 award, paved the way for a coveted spot on the 2024 tour.

OI OI!

Anyone that’s been to a mountain bike event where “The Deakinator” has been in attendance will know that familiar sound ringing down the track as ‘Deaks’ descends and his fans cheer him down the hill.

Ben is a mountain bike coach turned content creator and his passion for the sport is infectious. We love the enthusiasm he brings to the table, never failing to make you want to get out on your bike and have as much fun as he is having.

Charlotte is relatively new to the MTB world, but you wouldn’t know it. Progressing as rider at a rapid speed, growing in confidence and learning new tricks. Recently picking up a Dirt Jump bike, we can’t wait to see what she does with that.

Head over to her IG or YouTube to learn about her journey and for some tips on how to start yours.

4x, BMX crusier, freestyle, Pumptrack. There isn’t much Jack doesn’t ride. A loyal Halo rider, Jack has been rolling on Halo for years and rides locally, but competes globally.
