Nate Adams came into the sport as many others, from motocross racing. He quickly found his niche jumping over the track and not racing around it. Hailing from Phoenix, Arizona, Nate Adams has become one of, if not the best, freestyle motocross riders in the world. Switching over to freestyle, Nate instantly found success in IFMA events and after only one year pro he was crowned World Freestyle Motocross Champion in 2002. Building on his success of the 2002 season, Nate focused himself on becoming the best freestyler in the world. His career has accumulated a plethora of titles. But despite winning numerous titles during his early years as a professional, there was one title that Adams couldn’t seem to conquer; the illustrious X Games Gold. Finally, in 2004, Adams was able to make home the one title that eluded him and join freestyle elite. Adams continues to take on the competition headfirst, claiming three LG Action Sports World Championships, three AST Dew Tour Championships and many more titles and podiums throughout the years. His drive to win is second to none and he continues to develop his craft. One of the most difficult tricks in any freestyle motocross rider’s repertoire is the back flip. But Nate has raised the bar beyond the standard and can complete more variations of the trick than nearly any other athlete competing. Despite spending most of his time in the air, Nate’s attitude is quite down to earth. His friendly personality is popular with riders in the paddock as well as with the fans. His laid back and comic nature doesn’t let him take the pressures of his profession too seriously and enjoys everything from video games, movies, music, art and drawing. He has a signature toy in the stores, a documentary on his life, Full Circle and has graced numerous industry magazine covers as well as being a featured athlete in the Summer X Games and AST Dew Tour commercials. |

Robbie Maddison is a professional freestyle motocross rider from Australia. Robbie has done many wild things on a motorcycle but one can not help but mention his most recent and most memorable achievement, the 2009 New year's Eve jump. This jump was not the usual ramp to ramp jump... this was a launch ramp to hold onto your belongings as he traveled 120 feet into the air and landed on top of the Arc de Triomphe at the Paris Las Vegas. If you weren't impressed by that, he'll do you one more by riding OFF of the top of the building and almost over shooting his landing ramp but sticking it in the end. In 2008, he broke the distance record for a motorcycle ramp to ramp jump that he had already broken several times before. What more could you want? Well, he wanted 350 feet and he got about 351. Once more... he jumped a motorcycle three hundred and fifty feet. Basically, he jumped a football field... ramp to ramp. He has since started a company called Maddo Enterprises to get into the FMX industry. |
