FREE AGENT BMX BICYCLE MOVIE
"I remember watching that movie and it had all kinds of crazy stuff and when they got to the motocross guys I was like 'I want to do that'," Williams recalls. His obsession with all things action sports began at age seven after Williams stumbled across Ultimate X, a documentary which depicted the 2002 X Games competition. Even before he had reached his teenage years, he was achieving more air and perfecting tricks those double his age could only dream of landing. Williams was never just ambling around the park on his scooter. "I didn't really mind what people would say to me but as I grew up I could see the stereotype more and more and I could see that younger people were really getting some slack for riding a scooter. "When I started I was just a kid doing my own thing," Williams tells ESPN. Across scooter and BMX disciplines, Williams has claimed seven gold medals in big air and best trick events at both X Games and Nitro Circus. It was a craft he developed for a decade and a half, and now Williams, more commonly known as R-Willy, is considered the world's premier scooter rider. While those around him were grazing their knees from BMX bike falls and skateboard stacks, Williams was the odd one out, honing his craft on the humble kick scooter. You know, that metal board mounted on two little wheels and attached to a long steering handle.īut back then, in the mid-noughties, it wasn't exactly the most popular activity taking place at his local skate park in Caloundra on the Sunshine Coast. He was just a 12-year-old boy who had a passion for scootering. "You only ride a scooter because it's easy." "You're never going to get anywhere riding a lame scooter." Ryan Williams will never forget the nasty words haters often threw in his direction.
