What inspired your most recent tattoo?

I was at a motocross race (World Two-Stroke) sponsored by a friend Pasha Panterra, actor and professional stunt mogul. I saw that the Fasthouse tent was throwin’ ink and rockin’ tunes. I’m currently sponsored by Fasthouse, so why not get the F/H logo next to my racing tattoo. Ended up sitting across from moto legend Tyler Bereman while we both got ink, walkin’ jaws about recent films and events and sharing sweet moto photos from Red Bull Day in the Dirt race.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

It would say, “bring a translator or get data for your phone when traveling” haha. When designing a crane to run my entire forearm with a Belarusian artist, to represent The Decemberists band, I had to use grunts, motions, and google photos to convey things. As the only English phrases he had learned up to that point were “stop moving,” and “I smoke now.” Lol, comes with the experience and makes for great stories though. Stupid games = stupid prizes

What would you do with the $25,000?

I proposed to my smoke show fiancé during a trip home to Montana 2 years ago that included the Tetons, YNP, a wedding in Paradise Valley, being an extra in S5E7 of Yellowstone, my high school reunion, and staying with a friend who took us camping and fly fishing. My economic priorities have always been geared towards thrill seeking machines and fun-filled escapes. But, if I came into $25 Large… hmmm…Elope in a castle, reception in San Diego with Steel Panther band
