BMXStunts: What is your occupation?
Todd: Perfection on Wheels Office Guru and Team Member.

BMXStunts: What got you into Riding?
Todd: I started racing when I was young. The most fun I had during racing was jumping the jumps. After a while I quit racing and started jumping and riding quarterpipes because it was more fun. This led to freestyling full time.

BMXStunts: What is your top motivation for riding?
Todd : Progression for myself. I ride for the same reason as I started 16 years ago, because it is the funniest and most challenging thing I have ever done. The freedom of expression during riding is also very cool. You, your bike, your imagination and a parking lot is all that is needed for a days worth of fun.

BMXStunts: Are there riders that influence you or you enjoy watching?
Todd: Definitely Matt Hoffman and Kevin Jones. Obviously Bob Haro for starting freestyle. I also think Dennis McCoy because he is showing everyone that you can ride for a long time if you are smart and stay healthy. Also Dave Mirra for his professionalism as not only a rider, but an athlete in general.

BMXStunts: What has been your favorite riding experience?
Todd: Anything that had to do with riding with Group A!

BMXStunts: What types of tricks do you like the most?
Todd: Darkside Stuff and Spinning

BMXStunts: If you had to attempt your last trick on earth, what would it be?
Todd: Naked Bunny Hop over lit candles

BMXStunts: What are your thoughts on competitions?
Todd: I think the main reason competitions are cool is because it is a time to hang out with all of your friends and ride together. It is not the actual competing that is cool, but the comradory of the riders. I currently do not compete but I plan on getting back into competitions soon.

BMXStunts: Where is your favorite place to ride?
Todd: Ski Beach and De Anza Cove, San Diego

BMXStunts: Tell us your Likes / Dislikes.
Todd: I like sunny weather, dialed bikes, coffee, riding so hard you are a mess, turntables and Vinyl, Hanging out with my friends and progression. I dislike New England weather, snow, rain etc..., people who have egos for stupid reasons. Money problems suck too!

BMXStunts: Do you have expectations for yourself in riding?
Todd: Not Really. I have always just wanted to ride with my friends and go to the comps and different cities that riding would take us. Currently the only expectation I have for myself is to keep riding hard and maybe enter a competition again soon

BMXStunts: How often do you ride?
Todd: I ride almost everyday around 5:00pm at the beach. I am usually by myself with all the freaks that sleep in their cars in the parking lot. I try to ride nonstop for the whole time I am there. This keeps me going and motivated.

BMXStunts: How long do you see yourself riding?
Todd: As long as I can.

BMXStunts: Where do you think the sport is headed in the future?
Todd: It will keep getting bigger and eventually taper off. I do not see it going down or dropping off however. Freestyle has established itself, like skateboarding, as a new generation mainstream sport sort of like the common sports did many years ago like basketball, football, etc. You will see freestyle competitions getting more like football or basketball games with high paying athletes, and maybe if we are lucky cheerleaders.

BMXStunts: What has been your biggest accomplishment?
Todd: Making a living at what I love to do - Riding my bike! Also moving out to California and getting out of a small town.

BMXStunts: Any future plans?
Todd: To continue riding and maybe go back to school. Keep working at a job with a good message and helping others who are less fortunate than I am.

BMXStunts: Any last words?
Todd: Just ride and Have fun!
