YOUR LIFE IS FULL OF TRAVELLING. DO YOU STILL ENJOY IT OR WOULD YOU SOMETIMES PREFER STAYING HOME?
If you stop traveling, you are standing still. So traveling gets you inspired and motivated for everything in your life! Travel is definitely an open book.

AND HOW LONG DO YOU NEED TO RECOVER FROM A JETLAG?
Damn, I hate that. At least 5-6 days; It depends on how many hours the time difference is!

ANY RECOMMENDATION ON HOW TO NOT GET BORED ON LONG OVERSEA FLIGHTS?
Book, Movies, Music and sleeping or talking with someone next to you if you can, the classic style ;)

TELL US A LITTLE ANECDOTE THAT HAPPENED DURING ONE OF YOUR TRIPS. ANYTHING, BE IT FUNNY, SPECIAL, WEIRD. WHATEVER COMES IN YOUR MIND?
Damn I was in Shanghai after my 30th birthday this year and I spent all my money and the sketchy ATM did not let me get cash anymore. I couldn’t go back to my hotel without a taxi, so I just asked a random dude who was riding a 3 wheel electric cycle full of garbage. I jumped on it and he brought me back to my hotel for only 2$! Hahhah crazy!

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE RIDING WITH TSG HELMETS? WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT THE HELMETS?
Since I started riding it has always been a dream for me to ride for TSG. I used to buy the (Ryan) Nyquist (pro) helmet back in time and I always felt safe and comfortable during my riding!

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN A SITUATION WHERE YOUR HELMET SAVED YOUR BRAIN FROM SEVERE DAMAGED? IF YES, WHAT HAPPENED?
Yes I had few knocks but nothing really in critical conditions I always walked away, so I recommend wearing TSG helmets, no doubt!!!

HOW ABOUT OTHER PROTECTION GEAR? DO YOU WEAR ANYTHING ELSE BUT A HELMET?
Yes knee pads and shin guards, ankle guard and sometimes elbow pads.

WHAT DO YOU DO ON A DAY OFF BIKE?
Moto or snowboard or Gym or emails or fix my park or having sex or eating ice cream!!!

DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER PASSION THAT YOU FOLLOW BESIDES BMX? WHAT IS IT, HOW DID YOU PICK IT UP AND WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT IT?
So many! I like to collect old and vintage stuff. I enjoy every sport. I would need twice as much time but it does not happen.

OCCUPATION IF YOU WERE NOT A PROFESSIONAL BIKER?
Damn I don’t know, is hard to say …
