Mongoose rider, Cam Peake can do just about anything on his bike. He's no stranger to big airs but can do some of the most difficult technical riding out there! Here are a few clips of Cam in Arizona when he was out there with the team for the Mongoose Am Jam in Tuscon.

Do you remember the first BMX event you went to this year and how did it go?
Cam Peake: It was SIMPLE SESSION back in Feb and the contest went awful for me. It was my first one back after I snapped my collarbone towards the end of 2016 and I was riding a bit slack all winter but I took a lot away from it in terms of what I needed to do for the rest of 2017 so in a way it gave me the kick up the back side I needed haha! I had a wicked time with everyone though.

How many weekends/days were you away from home and at a BMX jam/contest or on tour?
Cam Peake: This took some working out but around 14 weeks in total away at contests in 2017.  32 flights, 8 ferries and god knows how many miles in the car!

What was the best event you went to this year that gets your vote?
Cam Peake: This was a hard question because I have a sikkk time at all the contests I go to, some
