“Rehab was one of the best experiences of my life”
“By starting this new chapter in my
life, it’s allowed me to give back to the
freestyle world and also take a step out
of it at the same time,” Morrison says.
“It’s rad to see these riders come out
with the dream to hit an FMX ramp.
When they do and they land it for the
first time it’s so cool! There are not
many places you can sign up to hit
an FMX ramp. If you’re a motocross
rider you can go to the track, pay to
practice, race and work your way
up. In FMX that’s not the case. So
seeing the progress and the smiles
on everyone’s faces after they hit the
ramp is pretty cool.”
We’re thankful Colin’s story has a
positive ending, unlike so many other
fallen brothers who did not get a
second chance. Colin’s days are now
spent at the office running his clothing
companies, running or biking in the
hills of Hollywood, riding and putting
on FMX classes; teaching the youth
and passing on the skills he learned
over the years as one of the OG’s of
FMX.
