I start racing BMX at the age of 6; I was always playing with a cheap BMX bikes my parents found at a supermarket, so after a while they decided to take me to a BMX place; I loved it straight away; my parents had to buy me a better bike, Sunn was the famous brand at this time, I was so happy! At age 13, I saw a DH race on TV and decided I wanted to do that, it looked so cool and fast!
