1. Highlight was getting together with friends old and new and riding kids bikes, Adventuring with my 7 year old daughter, ran my first half marathon, and enjoying life in general.
2. Made a few trips to the Wheel Mill in Pittsburgh, Cranx, Grindlab and Bethlehem. Nothing too far from home for me. East coast is the best coast.
3. Any footage I saw from Texas Toast made me want to get on my bike and pedal with a big smile on my face.
4. I miss Brian. Another low point was breaking my wrist. I haven’t touched my BMX in like 6 months. I had surgery and was off work for way too long. Def. the lowest I’ve been in a while.
5. I just want to get back on my BMX. I have a Fairdale that I can still ride everywhere, but I miss hitting a quarter. Just want to hang out with friends and have fun! Trying to hit my first marathon this year too. Life is good.

1. My highlight was definitely going to Boston with the Merritt homies.
2. Didn’t travel to much, just Boston and New York.
3. There were so dope videos put out its a little to hard to decide.
4. The worst part of 2014 was definitely breaking my tailbone.
5. I’m definitely looking forward to going on some trips and just getting out on my bike. Oh and also working on and expanding my clothing company (Lucky B Official). I have a lot of plans with it so it should be a big year for that.

1. BMX wise, 2014 hasn’t been all that great for me. I guess the best thing to really happen was finally committing to riding the Roslyn skatepark. The transitions at that place are so crazy, and I’m definitely siked on a few of the things I managed to get done in bigger pool.
2. Nope. Only got to ride for about 3 months this year, all of which were spent at local spots.
3. I know I’ve watched some web videos, but I hardly keep up on what’s going on these days to really know. I think Harry Main put out something that made me say “What the Fuck!?” out loud a few times. BMX has really gotten out of hand with the level some dudes are at.
4. Blowing up my back again for (hopefully) the last time. I caved and finally opted for the spine surgery back in October. Still recovering, but I’m hoping to be back on it come springtime.
5. Getting healthy and staying healthy. It’s all I really want. If I can fit riding somewhere in there, at this point in life it’s all a bonus. There are a few things left on my BMX bucket list, so you never know.

1. Learning Tailwhips for sure I was so stoked to have finally learned this trick after so many fails and pure motivation to get it.
2. I traveled to Philly a few times and that’s where I feel at home. I love all the people I meet there, the vibe it throws at you and just endless combos to do.
3. My favorite video would have to be Merritt’s Tasers DVD. Filled with non stop action, flowing parts and great sound track to wrap it up.
4. The low point of this year is by far the winter. I still try to ride as much as I can here in Wilkes-Barre but we don’t have a park near us so we can’t do much unless the weather is forgiving.
5. In 2015 I am looking forward to riding more places and going harder than ever before. I’d love to get flow by cult or Merritt for sure. I’d be so stoked on that. Also to see Ride PA BMX get more attention in the BMX world and go far along with all the riders that support it.

1. The highlight of my year riding was meeting new friends and making more good memories.
2. Sadly I didn’t get to travel as far as I would have liked but did it make around to a few new places in PA so it was decent I can’t complain.
3. Favorite web edit is OSS #plugprices as of now favorite DVD part is a tossup between Chad Kerley in Markit Zero and Garrett Reynolds in Deadline both game changing parts and of course my homie Steve’s part from deadline too.
4. Worst part of my year has been dealing with injuries and broken bike parts. I had a few broken cranks this year and a rolled ankle that never seems to heal right.
5. What I’m looking forward to in 2015 is to get to travel farther, meet new people, keep filming and doing what I love to do.
