Todd Potter
Pro Rider Todd Potter is a relative newcomer to the freestyle comp scene and is as surprised as anyone to be invited amongst the second wave of contenders into the Moto X Freestyle event at X Games 13. As part of the Metal Mulisha, he was chosen over the very comrades he’s learned from, Ronnie Faisst and Jeremy Stenberg. A former BMX rider, he said all that pedaling has helped him learn moves on the motorcycle quickly.
