Kevin "K-Rob" Robinson

BMX / United States

The G-Form Family is deeply saddened by the loss of veteran BMX professional and Providence hometown hero Kevin “K-Rob” Robinson. Kevin launched his BMX career in East Providence, RI with passion, perseverance, and pride. Just a few of Kevin’s many accomplishments include 10 XGames medals (4 gold), a Guinness World Record for longest power-assisted bicycle backflip, starting the K-Rob Foundation that assists underserved children in athletics, and his constant presence in the local school system promoting a healthy, active lifestyle to children.

Ride in Peace, Kevin. You will be greatly missed by many.
