I won my first 2 amateur comps at  age 14 my main tricks were double grabs an rock solids on my 85 I also got a four page Interview with Freerider MX.  My first pro comp I was 15 an I was starting to do a few shows around that time, I went  to Thailand, Indonesia, New Zealand all before the age of 18.
Started flipping around age 18 an was doing most of the big shows out here in  Australia I then broke my wrist not long after, it has been my only big injury to date it kept me out 6 months. Got back on the bike and within two weeks riding was back to normal. I starting getting calls from my good mate Maddo telling me i need to be in the states riding and doing shows which I was waiting off as I wanted to be riding better.

He was like fuck just come train hang out see what happens, so early 2009  I went over did some riding got to meet most of the mm guys. I got invited to ride a comp in San Diego Called ASA Team Event my team got 1st  then got invited to X fighters in Texas but had a little crash an couldn't ride which sucked. After all that went back home to Australia an finished the year off well wining the only 2 comps worth doing there..ha ha  

2010 has been great so far I have a heap of shows and comps going on and my new sponsors have been great so I am stoked right now

Keep on the lookout hopefully you will see me at X real soon!
