Jaxson Riddle is a mystery to most, but with Rampage 2022 coming up, we dug into what makes him tick.

If you've seen him ride, it's very clear where his inspiration comes from. Jaxson grew up riding moto, which has translated to his style on and off the bike. Nothing gets him fired up more than bringing the speed and big air of the moto world to mountain bikes.

When Jaxson isn't twisting throttle or going big in the Virgin hills, he heads to the course to catch a round. Golf is Jaxson's time to chill, and do something other than jump off cliffs.

Tune in to Rampage this year to cheer Jaxson on!

 Being different from everyone is good, but being you is the best thing you can be, no matter if that's similar to anyone or thing. Sick skills BTW, hope you win it this year

 I wasn't a big fan of that comment. Hope he grows past that sort of an attitude. "Worthless", stfu. Might have been some humor or sarcasm in there, but people rarely say things even as a joke without meaning it to some extent. We don't need pro mtb'ers that talk like nfl divas, IMO. I've just always appreciated the down-to-earth nature of most pro mtb'ers as a testament to the common passion for bikes and the mtb community. But the sport does certainly seem to be going in the direction of bro-culture as it gains more mainstream traction, and even despite becoming more "woke". I miss the days when we were mostly dorks, even if the bikes were'nt that great.

 It's a good job Jaxson's so damn good on a bike, because with a name that cool he essentially had no choice but a career in extreme sports. It was just never going to work to say "let me introduce you to our East Midlands head of sanitary ware sales Jaxson Riddle"

 He gets paid to spend all his time riding mtb/moto and play golf. I'd say he's figured life out pretty well already.

 The lifted Tacoma with black wheels definitely doesn't look like anyone else....

 @Struggleteam: so he’s saying riding like the other competitors like Zink, Storch, Godziek is worthless? I’m still trying to figure out what’s worthless.

 @ElDebarge: we’ll he definitely rides with a freestyle mx style. His run last year just looked different. However my point was it wasn’t about his truck or his goggles but how he rides. Regardless I’m sure he wears that gear because he’s sponsored by them.

 Heaven forbid him wearing one of the four top goggle and helmet companies that happen to pay him. He should make is own. @adrennan:

 @ebomb801: I guess what I am saying is we don't need a minute interview talking about how you look different when you are in the same brands, just let your riding do the talking.

 @Cerealmike: I wouldn’t, enduro bikes are as if not more capable these days.

 @dreadnought007: that’s fair man, I’m lucky to not have to own one bike and live in a place where I can use a DH rig. Enduro bikes sure are great but don’t love destroying them in the bike park. Each to their own!

 I was asking them at the outpost last weekend and the answer was “we just had a meeting and a new tr11 still hasn’t come up”

Hopefully they were yanking my leg
