How do you rise through the ranks of the Deity Grassroots program? Through work ethic, positivity, style, being a role model, and drive. Deity Fresh Blood Grassroots rider, Derek Tromp, embodies these attributes and is one of the up and coming talents who is set for bigger and better things throughout the future with Deity.

"We cannot speak more highly about the crew we have on our Fresh Blood Grassroots program. We have established such a phenomenal squad that carry themselves so well and are constantly involved with our company. Many companies run Grassroots programs, but we are one of the few who promote our riders and try to have their talents be seen by the rest of the world.

The common theme with all of our riders is that they are not only talented on a bike, but they are appreciative, positive, enthusiastic, and hungry to be a part of our company. Those traits make each of them stand out to us and we have never had such an amazing roster of riders under our flag.

Riders like Derek keep us fueled and anticipating what the future holds with the up and coming riders of today." (Deity Owner, Eric Davies)

 @marseer, if you can fly a drone between metal beams as straight as an arrow like that I'll eat my own face... I was referring to the one shot following him directly from above where he barspins as he leaves the frame, but you never know, the filmer could be an ace pilot!!
