NICKNAME NINJA RIDER
How did you start out riding?
I started my career with 50cc motocross when I was 4 years old. Because my father loves motorcycle. So we used to ride a motocross together. But I could ride a moto only weekend. So I started riding a cheap bike when I was around 10. I got into it and my father gave me a pure trials bike when I was 12. I’ve been riding a trials bike for 19 years!
What does riding mean to you?
I started riding my bike just for fun and it became my job. But it’s still just for fun!
Was it always your number 1 sport?
When I was a kid, I loved baseball and motocross so much! And I still love motocross.
Are there any other hobbies?
Van tripping, Camping and BBQ with my family and friends! But I always look for some cool spot for riding when I’m on a trip. Haha
Who or what inspires you?
Clapping from someone when I ride in the street.
What makes you push your limits?
Feedbacks from people and pure pleasure for riding.
'Create Playgrounds' means to me:
It means to use your brain to make things fun by yourself. You can enjoy anywhere with your creativity.
