1. What was the catalyst for you getting involved in BMX?
Seeing Ian ride the old Banbury mini ramp not knowing there were still riders out there..
2. What was your first BMX bike & what is your fondest memory of that bike?
tuff one coz I had an old huffy usa import in about 1991 but I didn't ride it in the true sense of riding, first bike that I really used for "riding" was a 1995 diamond back venom. memory, hacking down the oxford road for a feeble grind on a ledge, hooking the rear peg under the wall to full on bar thrust, bending the 10mm axle fully into a hook, then going round Ian's and asking if he could fix it.
3. What is your favourite type of riding & your favourite trick at the moment?
tech mini ramp/spine/volcano. any tech trick that involves rotation.
4. How many BMX bikes have you owned since you started riding?
ummm bout 15 I think??
5. What do you think of the current state of the BMX industry?
love the technology, hate the fashion (tailwhip,tailwhip,turndown etc...)
6. If money was no object, what bike/frame/part would you go out & buy today?
eastern grim reaper titanium..
7. What’s the worst thing you’ve ever wasted your money on relating to BMX?
a chrome flybikes mosca/odyssey/RNC bike..
8. What riders have been a source of inspiration in your riding & why?
all who are different and do there own thing, ie: Kevin Porter, Matt Hoffman, Ruben etc..
9. If you could learn any trick what would that trick be?
to keep a smile on my face EVERY time I rode.
10. If you had to put on a Haro type 1 number plate on your bike with a message on it what would it say? (ie:- ‘trix R 4 kidz’)
"00".. no body expects nothing from nothing.
