For how long have you been riding?
I've been riding for
about 12 years now.


What was your influence when you started riding (videos, mags, riders...)?
Just being myself and the fact I can do or try whatever I want is the biggest influence. I watch videos once in while and they're an influence as well.

What do you ride the most?
Park and Miniramp are the most fun to me.

What's the last trick you learned?
Tailwhip to manual to Icepick to Fakie.
Favourite trick?
All of my tricks are my favorite, because I've put a lot of time in each one of them.


Favourite Riders?
My friends and everybody who rides with me.


What was your BMX-highlight so far?
The chance to travel, see different places and meet new people seems like the biggest highlight. Those times I can keep in my mind for all my life.




What frame do you ride?
Mutiny Bikes "Captain" frame, designed by Morgan Wade.

What are you doing when you're not riding?

I spend time with my friends, my computer, try to film stuff and I draw pictures once in while (not really good).

What are your future goals?
Hopefully learn a lot of new tricks and ride bikes as much as I can with no injuries.

Any thanks?
