- Why did you start riding?:
- My buddy in junior high raced. He had an extra bike and invited me to the track. I raced for a couple of years and got over it. Then, one day a kid from school told me he could 360 and I didn't believe him. After school, we rode to ’The Flyout’ and he sent it first go. My brain exploded. I spent the next week trying 360s there and after I learned it I was hooked.
