Ep 103 : Sean Bird
Flying high with current Canadian champ
Today we are flying high with the birdman . Sean Bird is Canada ' s current champion also does a lot of freestyle work with shows and previous work with the Marvel Universe live & Freestyle Kings .
We chat with Sean about where it all started , and he opens up about the pitfalls of going up a grade before you were really ready .
Sean then had a break from the sport while he focused on his career , but as so often is the story we hear about how he came back and the generosity of a rider to simply give him his bike to ride to help Sean recapture the bug .
Since then Sean has been busy evolving into a freestyle rider and shows with former guest Sam King through Ride the Vibe , travelled to China for work with Freestyle Kinds and as mentioned the Marvel universe Live before COVID shut it down .
It was a treat to speak with Sam , and here about his plans for the TdN and the year ahead and how he balances training for events vs freestyle shows .
Ladies and gentleman I give you my chat with the Canadian Champ : Sean Bird .
