When you're dropping in for a big trick,
you know, that everything needs to go perfect,
or the crash is going to be really big.
(COME WITH US)
It's so important to have the right speed, because too much speed is bad,
and not so much speed is really bad...
There's a point where you never know if it's gonna work or not.
This year I started building my own compound,
when you want to try something and you have your own spot,
it's just perfect, because you wake up and you try,
and you try, try, try until it becomes possible.
I think I was 15 or 16 years old
and I just been trying double flips for, I don't know, weeks maybe at the foam pit
and I think after three or four crashes it worked and I was like super stoked.
Finally landing a trick that no one ever landed or
even if it's your first time landing that trick,
when you get it, it's just an amazing feeling!
And after doing that, is when everything started building up from there.
To learn a new trick, it takes a lot of time, it takes a lot of thinking and imagination,
especially when you want to do something big,
to progress you need to try new stuff,
and to try new stuff, you need to crash.
What we do is is super dangerous,
I mean we're jumping off cliffs and off jumps are more than 20 meters long and 20 meters high.
If you crash, it's bad.
When I was 17 and I had a quite a big crash
and broke my kidney, my kidney just blew up.
Yeah that was like the worst thing that ever happened...
And then, I broke my femur in three places,
and that was about a year and a half ago,
could barely walk, I was in crutches for eight months
and it was super tough for me, like especially on your mind.
When you're off the bike, and all your time goes into recovering
that's probably one of the hardest parts,
seeing everyone riding and and just having fun
and you can't do anything, you can't ride a bike,
all you can do is recover and wait until you can ride again,
I would say it's one of the toughest things.
I try to push the limits to as far as I can,
like I don't even know, how I measure fear, like I guess I have no fear
people around me, just describe me, as a Loco,
like i don't see the risk, I only see the reward
Rampage, Dark Fest or Audi Nine are three of my favorite events
I like winning and that's why I go there, because I want to win, I want to be the best!
A few years ago, I came with the idea of trying the triple flip,
We tried in the airbag, everything works nice and perfect,
and then when it was time to do it on dirt, I had some gnarly crashes, really gnarly.
Yeah the impact was so big, that it just exploded, everything and had a massive crash
No one ever thought you could do a triple flip, even me like, I was like, this is impossible.
It's something I really really want to do,
and it's something I've been after for a long time now,
and like now, I think I can do it, and I want to do it.
