Why did you start riding BMX? Having an older brother who raced was awesome. Him and his friends got me into trails and racing really early.
What was the first trick you learned? No-footers i'd say

What riders were/are influential in your life?
The riders i looked up to growing and still love to watch kill it are Kris Bennett, Chris Doyle, Ruben Alcantara, Garret Byrnes, Mike Aitken.
Favorite riding spot: I'd have to say just riding the 4ft mini at my parents place with my 12 yr old brother Cameron
Favorite contest: Toronto Jam!
What is the wildest thing you have seen done on a bicycle? Watching Jamie Bestwick blast downwhips on vert!
What is the wildest thing you have done on a bicycle? Probably pedaling all out across a field to a giant kicker like wave object in Toulouse,France and 3'ing off the top to flat and not having any idea where i was at in the air until the ground came up real hard and unforgiving haha!
Favorite food: Momma Childs cheese potatoes or Molly girls grilled cheese. I like simple foods.
Favorite movie: The Strangers
Favorite trick: Tabes
What is a motto you subscribe to? BMX is fun, stop taking it so serious.
What is your favorite BMX memory? Just growing up riding K-Robs park Impact in East Prov,RI.
Describe the perfect day: First i'd wake up make some breakfast (because if i don't eat breakfast before i stunt on the bike it's going to be a bad day.) The sun would be out but not blazing hot, I'd cruise with the little buddy and some dudes either at some trails or an outdoor park or even Rye Airfield. Eat lunch with the babe and cruise the streets of Prov with some dudes and just kick it. After the shredding comes to an end, kick it with the lady and relax, or play Skate 2 haha
If you could have lunch with anyone in history- who and why? Thomas Edison so we could shred way back 110 years ago haha!
Last words of wisdom? Ride your bike, and just live your life.
