After two successful seasons with the Phoenix Racing Honda team, Kyle Peters heads into the 2022 Arenacross season as the rider to beat as he makes a run at his third straight title. After the opening rounds of the Kicker AMA Arenacross Series, we checked in with the Greensboro, North Carolina native to ask him about 2022 and beyond.

While EVS started as a motocross specific protection company when we introduced the first evet motocross specific knee brace in 1985, the crossover aspect of our product being able to be worn in other or sports has grown more and more apparent as the brand has evolved.  As EVS has grown and changed over the years, we have become a one stop shop for any protective gear for almost any activity imaginable including mountain biking, snowmobiling, any/all action sports, and more.  Another avenue that EVS is growing in is the world of karting. 

The EVS Race Collar collection is designed to offer protection against neck and collarbone injuries by reducing the risk of axial compression, hyperflexion, hyperextension, and lateral hyperflexion. EVS Race Collars are then further refined using test data and real-world feedback from riders on the track and the trail, along with further input from racers in the karting scene who also use these collars for racing.

An often-overlooked and underrated part of a dirt bike rider's protective equipment kit is a quality pair of moto socks. On the surface, one might think, 'They're just socks. Is there really that much of a difference?' The short answer is YES—especially when the socks are purpose-built for motocross and offroad trail riding. A good pair of socks like those made by EVS Sports help provide a more focused and fun day of riding—without unwanted distractions like blisters, hot spots, or poorly placed seams that come with a bad sock choice.

To say that Brandy Richards had a stellar 2021 season would be a massive understatement. The KTM-supported motocross racer turned offroad racer put together a perfect season in the WORCS Series and would have done the same in the NGPC series had she not missed one round to attend the ISDE in Italy. In Italy, she swept every test and won the individual Women's ISDE Overall Title and helped lead the U.S. Women's Trophy Team to victory. After her final race of the year, we checked in with Brandy to ask for her take on one incredible 2021 season and what some of her goals are in 2022.

The 2021 Mini Olympics at Gatorback Cycle Park somehow surpassed the overall success the 2020 edition event in nearly every way both for the event as a whole and for us/EVS Sports.  Pulling onto the grounds for the first time we had anticipated we would be on site 'early' to be prepared and ready to provide support to #TeamEVS riders but it was apparent as soon as we pulled in that we were not early.  'Vendor Row' and the grounds in general were already at or near capacity, much more so than 2020.

Agustin Barreneche is a motocross racer on the rise as he works his way through the amateur ranks towards the goal of becoming a professional. As a member of the Team EBR Performance squad and hailing from Medellin, Columbia, Barreneche and his family decided a few years back to live and train in the United States based out of the Millsaps Training Facility (MTF) in Cairo, Georgia, where he now lives and trains the majority of the year under the tutelage of MTF Owner Colleen Millsaps.

EVS T5 helmets combine clean, bold graphics with performance, function, and comfort features usually only included with premium models. With two unique configurations to choose from—MX/Offroad or Dual Sport—the T5 is designed to protect what matters most during those epic days at the track, out on the trail, or when on single or multi-day dual sport adventures—without maxing out your apparel budget.

The EVS line of Ballistic Jerseys includes a diverse range of options for those looking for more protection than standard roost deflectors. From our ultra-lightweight and breathable Comp Suit to the G7 with full upper body protection, EVS Ballistic Jerseys offer the ultimate in off-road protection from crash impacts, roost, and other on-the-trail debris.

Freddie Noren, who, despite missing three mid-season rounds because of a wrist injury, finished out the series 19th in the final 450-class standings. We asked the likable and friendly Swede now living and racing in the U.S. for his take on the 2021 outdoor season and what's in store for "Fast Freddie" in 2022. Here's what he had to say.

Christian "CD" Dresser is a rider on the move—both literally and figuratively. The Oviedo, Florida native and former racer-turned-freerider has experienced tremendous growth recently with his social media following thanks to his silky-smooth style and massive physics-defying whips. But as a talented upcoming freerider living and riding in Florida, he realized the time was now for a change of scenery to keep his momentum going. So he packed up his bike and belongings and moved his base of operations from Florida to southern California to take his freeriding career to the next level. We were curious to know more, so we called up Christian and asked him about the move, what it's been like adjusting to his new west coast lifestyle, and what's ahead in the future.

With the Summer Olympic Games recently ending, we asked #TeamEVS athlete Payton "P-Nut" Ridenour about her experience representing the United States as a member of Team USA BMX. At just 19 years old, the Pottstown, Pennsylvania native was the youngest member of the USA Olympic BMX team after turning pro at the start of the 2021 season.

With the 2021 Loretta Lynn's Amateur National Motocross Championships in the rear view mirror, we looked back at the great week we had in Tennessee supporting #TeamEVS athletes and hanging out with some of the best Amateur riders and their families in the country.

Motocross, and athletics in general, to the public can often be deceiving.  The general public doesn’t see the amount of ‘work’ that gets put in for riders at the top of the sport to race at the level that they do.  That ‘work’ can come in various forms…obviously there is a large amount of actual riding being done on the motorcycle, but there’s also a large amount of off the bike training and exercise that’s all done to help a rider race at the highest level.

We check in with Team TiLube/Storm Lake Honda Racing rider Grant Harlan to see what he's been up to lately and how his recovery is going after his crash at the Daytona Supercross earlier this year.

For those participating in action sports, shoulder injuries can be a common occurrence. That’s why EVS created a line of shoulder braces and supports for action sports athletes for dealing with and helping to prevent shoulder injuries. This article provides a brief, high-level overview of the various models that make up the EVS line of shoulder braces.

EVS Sports, the original protective gear company, is known for their knee braces but few know that the Ballistic Jersey was really the second product ever made by EVS Sports.  Check out the full story to learn more about the origins and history of the iconic Ballistic Jersey from EVS Sports.

The EVS design team is driven to create products that protect action sports athletes. It's one of the main reasons we continue to do what we do and create protective equipment to help keep our enthusiast customers protected no matter what the activity. For the latest installment in our 'Why Wear' series, we interviewed motocross racer Josh Tracy to ask him why he uses EVS Knee Braces when he rides moto. Here's his story.

Crashes are an inevitable part of riding dirt bikes, and as racers, we inherently know each time we suit up, there’s a chance of going down, especially when other racers are added to the mix on the same track. For EVS athlete Zachary Pope, one minor miscue led to what he describes as a freak accident and one of the wildest rides of his life. The crash, captured by photographer Mike Vizer, went viral on Instagram with 235,000+ views to date. So, I called up Zachary Pope to ask about his crash, check in on his recovery, and find out when he hopes to get on the bike and riding again.
