Re: Who do you look up to in our sport
definitely nick apex...his riding and filming have it's own unique look..which is nice since 80% of stunters out there are idle/circle ******...
oh and bill from full throttle...for being 120% dedicated to his customers.

Joe Brown, Darius, E-Dub, Brestunt, Nick Apex, Joe Molina, Luxury, 256North and many others offcourse, but it's hard to think of everyone when I'm not behind my own computer with all the movie clips on it

Re: Who do you look up to in our sport
I "Look up to" every mother****er on a street-bike and that's the gods honest truth. That's one of the ways that I "Keep it Real" or "Unreal" depending on your perspective.
A few riders that have profoundly influenced me thru the years;
Kyle Woods
Chris "Teach" McNeil
Tony D Freestyle
Matt Gorka
Chauncey Viera
Jason Britton
Darias Kashabi
Brandon "Digidy" Ulrich
"Vertical" Joe Dryden
A.C. Farias
Kevin Carmichael
Jon Jon
Wink 1100
Ronnie Reality
Ray Ray Z.
Alex Flores
Korno
As far as filmmakers go, I've never had anyone to look up to. I think that Craig "Stone" Beckman's film Alex Flores "Conquistador" is a very good film. I have respect for Mike Nicely & Nick Apex who as filmmakers are "Out There and Doin It" without a doubt.

Re: Who do you look up to in our sport
first of all i appreciate and respect anyone that has and is helping show the general public that we're not all out to power wheelie threw old folks homes and do 200mph down main street
it's amazing how far the sport has come when there was so many against it:YEAH
It's a good feeling to know that there's guys like M.nicely and britton,exc,exc.getting hollywood,big companies,people with big wallets and so on ,to pay more attention and get more involved into the sportbike freestyle life
as for a indv.rider i look up to ,not that he needs any more ego juice but,lol
CRAZY MARTIN: he's one of a handfull that keep the ol'skool acro alive and imo,he's one of the best showmen out there ,wether there's one old lady watching or 30,000 people watching,he gives %100, Except at the last monster jam show we did together ,he gave %100 and layed out a hell of a run but the crowd was blinded by his chrome pants,lol and i won,hehehehe
that was the best day of my stuntlife, the student beat the teacher:YEAH
but imo i did'nt deserve it but i aint complaning
nick ''apex'' you found my goofy a$$ way back in the early 2000's and so i feel like i owe you some of my vast riches ,so %99 percent of all the debt i've encured since that day is all yours friend
but seriously you are revolutionizing the sport in many ways..............eventhoughyoupeedonmytruck...... ...........

Re: Who do you look up to in our sport
When I started stunting I looked up to Britton, Pauly and Starboyz and that was pretty much everybody lol!! Couldnt imagine starting to stunt now with all the tricks that are out there, you would think it's gonna be impossible to learn all of them. But these days riders learn the tricks much faster, what took me 7 years someone could learn in 3 or quicker. But learning tricks and bieng able to bust them out where ever whenever is much different, that only comes with practice, doing lots of comps and shows in $hitty conditions!
