June 7th-14th - Dew Tour Spring Training

On June 6th My Dad and I flew out to Woodward, Pennsylvania for the Dew Tour Spring Training. The course that was set up to practice on was loaded with ramp to dirt jumps, dirt to dirt jumps, quarter pipes, hip jumps, wallride, and a "jump on jump off". A couple other riders showed up to ride including Kenny Bartram, Mike Metzger, Wiley Fullmer, Jeremy Lusk, Derek Cook, and Greg Hartman. The week started out going well, riding with everyone, and enjoying the camp WoodWard. Until friday, i overjumped the 90 foot dirt to dirt double and hit my chin on the bars, when I got the x-rays it showed that I shattered my jaw joints and cracked a moller in half. I had surgery on Sunday the 11th, now I am on my way to a fast recovery. This injury shouldnt slow me down to much!

May 8th - New Riding Spot
This date ended my first new jump to start hitting, but only the beginning to my new amazing course, with many different obstacles to train on; including ramp to dirt/dirt to dirt x games style course, natural terrain hits, supercross track, outdoor track, and unbelievable trails. I would like to put out a special thanks to Brian Manley, Scott Price, and my entire Family for coming out and making this whole thing possible. Check out the pictures, to only see the beginning of my whole new training facility.
March 25th - Factory Freestyle/Monster Energy Moto and Music
I was invited by Mike Metzger the Godfather of Freestyle, out to his ranch to ride and also compete in his "Factory Freestyle/Monster Energy Moto and Music" competition. I was just getting over my broken leg and went out to get some practice, getting 90 percent of my tricks back, I felt i was ready to ride in the competition. With many big name riders like, Mike Metzger, Ronnie Renner, Drake Mcelroy, Myles Richmond, Dustin "Wacker" Nowak, Wiley Fullmer, Julian D?usseau, Jeremy Lusk, Jeremy Carter, Grant Teel, Graham Gustin, Matt Buyton, and Myself.

Practice was not working in my favor. I hit most of the ramps, then came around again and over shot one of the jumps where I landed a little to hard on my healing leg. After resting a little bit, i thought it would be better if I sat out this competition, knowing there are many more to come.

All in all i was bummed that i couldn't ride with all of these awsome riders. I stayed till the end of the show, signing autographs for the fans, and cheering on all of my friends.
