Name: Natalie Wade
Hometown: Tyler, TX
Occupation: Student

You're married to one of the craziest BMX-ers out there, Morgan Wade. Does he scare you sometimes when he goes for another one of those big stunts?
Natalie: Hehe, there have been a few times where I’ve gotten the sweaty palms, racy heartbeat, etc. The majority of the time, however, I don’t get scared because I know he only tries things he truly believes he can pull.

You ride bikes too. Did you two meet at the skatepark?
Natalie: Yes and no. We met at Jay Miron’s Metro Jam in Vancouver, Canada. Morgan was one of the judges for the ladies’ class. The rest is history.

-Web video: Anything with pump track destruction. I was into the Tate Roskelley Volume edit too. So original and not one single foot jam combo.

Hey Harry, how long did you have to wait before you got to hop on your bike again after your last injury?
Harry Main: I've been back riding about 7 weeks now but not properly as I only just got the all clear from the doctor today! but it was about a 7 month injury! It's crazy, there was a high percentage that the bone would never heal as it has a blood lien that runs through the middle and the doctors said there was a 90% chance it wouldn't heal, but today I was told it was perfect and to ride my heart out!
