Angel Hernandez Recalde (born 6 January 1995) is a Spanish-Colombian individual and synchronised trampolinist. In 2013 he changed allegiance from Spain to Colombia because of a lack of financial support from the Spanish Gymnastics Federation. His parents are also Colombian. He competed at world championships, including at the 2014 and 2015 Trampoline World Championships.[1][2]

He took up the sport at age five. His sister Katish Recalde practised rhythmic gymnastics and when she was advised to switch to trampoline, he followed her into the sport. His sister also competes for Colombia in trampoline gymnastics.
