KYLE STRAIT

Contests or just riding? Contests, and racing. I love winning.

What’s your all time favourite mountain biking trip?

In 2005 Red Bull sent me and a bunch of my buddies down to La Paz, Baja California, Mexico to film for a couple weeks. It was one of the most fun trips I have ever been on. Beer, Beaches and lots of filming. Also, every trip to Whistler...

Nothing else matters but me and the bike. It's complete silence. Even when there's a massive crowd. I am so focused it just all goes quiet. I love that part.

What's one tip you would give to a grommet wanting to become a pro rider?
Always make sure you ride for fun. None of the other stuff matters. Not Instagram, fame, free stuff, nothing. You become the best by truly having fun.
