I’m a big fan of Pete Sawyer's riding. He’s very intentionally crafted his style toward an amalgamation of respectable influences with his own personal touch iced top. Not one to check the boxes of tricks while filming a part, he’s got the eye for spots and the skills to do impressive moves. These two traits don’t come easily, and it’s great to watch. Sometimes web edits leaves one thinking, ‘Ok that makes sense he did that,’ whereas Pete’s parts force a ‘Yes!’ Always smooth and rarely in more that one or two goes, he’s a solid all around rider.
I’ve had the opportunity to shoot with Pete a few times over the years. Sometimes his adolescent antics get a bit tiring, but I truly do like photographing his riding and doing trips with him. We found ourselves in Riga a couple months back for only a few days, but Pete managed to do some moves for the lenses which I’m really psyched about. For no other reason than to simply show you these photos, and concisely get his personality across, DIG threw a few topics his way.
