How long have you been riding bikes?

What is your day job?  
N/A I quit to ride my bike, but I did work in a bike shop. Before that I was a trail builder at Revolution Bike Park. Will do backflips for £10!

What is your favourite trail? 
50to01 Line at REVs, or Vink Line in Châtel.

Because it’s sexy! Haha. It’s been proven at Rampage, and it fits my riding style perfectly.
Playful and fast.
 
Have you changed/added anything to your bike to suit your riding style? 
Everything is pretty perfect, but I run 35psi in the tubes, and 90psi with 3 tokens in the fork.
 
What is your favourite thing about the bike?  
The versatility of the riding you can do on it and the fact it will take dual crown forks.
 
How is your season going so far?
Great! I have got lots of riding at some really good spots done and have been pushing my personal limits to achieve some goals – but mainly backflips. Lots of backflips!
 
What are your plans with the bike this year?
THE FIRM THE MOVIE is coming…
 
I am also moving out to Morzine for the summer to spend all the time I can on the bike and get more creative with my riding.
 
What would you say to anyone thinking of buying a Yeti?
DO IT NOW!! You will not regret it. They make a bike for all mountain bikers. Race winning, amazingly built, beautiful looking bikes.
