When and how did you start riding FMX? 

I was a MX guy most of my career but always leaned towards having fun on jumps and seeing how big I can throw a whip rather than focusing on speed. I got into the FMX scene when I received my first invite for King of the Whip 2019 - And that's when I met Jaques Human and he helped me learn some basic tricks. I Returned from a short Hiatus and that's when the JRFMX team started to help me out with some bigger tricks.

Who influenced you? 

The OG's of Freestyle. I always loved watching X-Games and seeing guys like Travis, Twitch , Mike Mason and Nate Adams rip up the freestyle course on TV. The Jungle Rush Team also played a major part more recently by showing me that I can do those tricks I usually saw on TV.

  • Dallan Goldman

  • Jarryd McNeil

Biggest achievements to date?

Favourite spot to ride? 

The Jungle Rush FMX Park is the place to be if you want to learn Freestyle in SA ! With a range of different size jumps, it's really an awesome place to ride if you want to get your feet wet in FMX.
