Do you like riding in shows or competitions – I like to ride shows more just for the fact there more chilled and you get to have fun and push your mates.
How did you get into riding? – I started racing BMX when I was 5 and raced until I was 10 when I stopped. In 2013 I got a Fit BF and started to ride at the skatepark
What was your first bike? – My first bike was a Redline 12’ can’t remember the model.
Who has influenced you the most in riding? – One of the people I looked up to the most was Kyle Baldock and any of the local riders, there was a kid down the street I lived on who helped me a lot when I first started.
What can you remember most about your first competition or demo? – The first comp I competed in was at my local Willetton on my 20’ Fit BMX, the main part I remember is my sweaty hands having no grip on the grips and the one and only trick I could do was a 180. I still had an awesome time and that’s where it really all started for my park riding.
Main type of riding – BMX skatepark or ramps
Favorite place to ride – My favourite place to ride would have to be Willetton due to the fact that I have grown up there and rode that park from day one.
What has been your worst injury? Breaking my hand.
