Do you like riding in show and competitions? – I don’t mind competitions but I preferably rather making videos or just riding for the fun of it! I’m not a competitive guy!
How did you get into scootering? – My dad lives in a small country town, the only thing there that is interesting really is the skatepark so everything just unraveled from there
What was your first scooter? – My first scooter was a Madd Gear Team Edition that I bought for $110 from Kmart for my 14th birthday!
Who has influenced you the most in riding? – My main influences would have to Thomas Atkins and Jordan Caswell along with Matty Ceravolo and Billy Watts… They pushed me with my riding when we used to go out days on end trying to film or just learn new tricks! I have a lot of friends at the skatepark that are too many to name, but those boys definitely did a lot for me over the years! Although I also had to influence myself a lot with riding as there was many days where I didn’t have anyone to ride with so I needed to motivate myself to do it on my own!
What can you remember most about your first competition or demo? – Well my first demo was with Freestyle Now in 2012 at Morawa on the FN jump box and I definitely had the first time jitters, but I tried to do my best and make the most of the opportunity and it must of been okay as I have been heavily involved with Freestyle Now since
Main type of riding? – Park! Always; I’ll get on some ledges and rails every now and again but always love just speeding around the skatepark
Favourite place to ride? – Belmont- it’s the local so no place better! Other than that I love riding Fremantle Plaza as well as the old park ‘Captain Munchies’ as they both have very different options of riding which is a good change
What has been your worst injury? – Probably smashing my face twice in the space of about 3 weeks…. Landed on my chin the first time and needed 5 needles of anesthetic in my face and 7 stitches! Got those stitches removed a week later, then 3 days after that I landed on my face again and pretty much knocked myself out and gave myself a fractured cheek bone and another 6 stitches! Fun times, always wear a helmet.
