comments: TJ is a very extreme guy. He loves riding his motorcycle, practicing for his dirt competitions, bunjee jumping, and jumping on his trampoline. This guy also has a sensitive side. He likes to play craps at the casino, play golf, and strike up some tunes on the piano. TJ makes many friends while riding on the dirt circuit. His closest friend would be Tim "Fuzzy" Hall. The guys have time shares at each others houses, and can pretty much always be caught riding together. TJ's list of sponsors just keeps growing. He's sponsored by Specialized, JNCO, Vans, Dragon, Rhytmn, Mountain Dew, Speed Stick, Pringles, and a few others. TJ currently rides a golden "Vegas TJ". It's his signature frame and he had a hand in its design. TJ has many great accomplishments under his belt. He was 1996 X games bronze medalist, 1997 X games gold medalist, 1998 won king of dirt finals, and 1999 X games gold medalist. He also won bronze at the Gravity Games and earned gold at the 1999 Aussie X Games.

Quote: "I try to ride my bike every other day if not every day, but sometimes you go two or three days with out riding. So it's no big deal, it just gets you more stoked to ride your bike. So I ride my bike about every other day and then 2 days before a contest I don't ride it at all, so then I'm super stoked to ride it when I get there! It's pretty rough on the body when you go down you know, I want to be pretty much perfect at a contest. You can get banged up pretty good!"
