-BMX MC: I really enjoyed listening to Ryan Taylor's quick wit and dirty humour on the mic at Canadian Concrete contests. He is a hilarious man behind that mic.
-Video game: Dave Mirra Pro bmx 2 on Ps2. Still play it through everytime I'm injured.
-BMX photographer: I really admire my Friend Zac Rampens work behind the lenses. He has a great eye for spots and using the natural architecture around him.
-BMX Filmer: Aaron Gates. His videos always have the best vibes to them. You feel like you really are along for that trip. He catches the essence of BMX.
Sorry Justin. You are great behind the camera as well. I just grew up on Aaron's footage. So I'm hella biased.
-Girl: Girls are evil.
-Sport besides BMX: There are sports besides bmx? I've been getting into cyclocross bikes as a way to prolong my "bmx riding career" so far my back feels much better.
-Party: on Wayne.
