Describe an average weekday…
I get up at about 6:30, go to work for the day, get home, then roll down to the local park. After that i usually have a few beers with the roomies Cody and Wilton.
What about the weekend?
Ride flat out, and party till i drop. The crew i ride with usually go on a bit of a road trip every weekend which is always rad!
Newest part on your bike?
Forks I think, I snapped a set not long ago haha.
Fix tubes or new tubes?
New!!!
Facebook, Twitter or Instagram?
Instagram, it cuts out alot of the winging that you find on Facebook.
Anything you would do-over if you could?
More travelling when i was younger would of been sweet!! first overseas riding trip was when i was 19, though i wanted to go when i was about 16 i think.

Last web video that got you stoked on riding?
Ahh thats a hard one, I love the ‘Chris Childs welcome to sunday’ edit!
Last song you listened to?
Over and over by uncle acid and the deadbeats
Pegs?
Rarely, don’t mind mucking around on them but they don’t help you go faster so they are usually off haha.
Brakes?
Definately, nothing worse then pulling off a set of trails with no brakes! and with so many slithering scooters around they come in pretty handy.
Favourite movie of all time?
Old School with Will Ferrel
Park, street or dirt?
Dirt, Dirt, Dirt!
What kind of car do you drive?
A Hilux ute, usually you will here it doing churpys and revving flat out if I’m near any mates haha.
When and what was your first photo in a magazine?
hahaha this made me laugh! first photo was in a crusty demon magazine doing a tailwhip at a dirt comp in Mackay when i was 18.
You have any web videos coming out?
Yeah, i started filming last week, racked up about 2 clips, then while filming the third i broke my back, so i’m out of action for 3 months!! but i’m keen to make another video after that!
