BACKBONE ZONE Episode 47

"Pro BMX rider, company owner and BMX brand team manager"

26 Feb 2024

Video by Back Bone BMX

Catch up with pro rider, Volume/Demolition TM, and skatepark builder Jason Watts, via the Back Bone Zone podcast.

"Jason Watts has been riding for Backbone for 10 years and has been a paid professional BMX rider for the same length time. His riding speaks volumes, but he is also deeply involved with the BMX industry, being team manager for Volume and Demolition, co-founding Fast and Loose BMX, as well as building skateparks across the world for BMX events through his ramp building company Universal Ramps.

I got to sit down and pick his brain on all the things he has been up to, what he thinks it takes to be a sponsored BMX rider in 2024 and the state of the BMX industry.

I always love speaking with Jason about everything and I know you'll enjoy this episode.

We'd love to hear your thoughts on any of the topics on this, or any episode. Hit us up with a comment below or on instagram." - Back Bone BMX
