From balance bike to shredding on a big bike: Jackson Goldstone

Remember the viral vid of a kid riding, jumping, dropping, and spinning his balance bike on the way to kindergarten?  His name was Jackson Goldstone and his riding hasn’t slowed one iota since his 2010 debut sans cranks.

Since then, Jackson has risen to the top tier of the sport, already demonstrating a signature style in mountain bike films and competing on the international stage, shoulder to shoulder with some of the best racers and freeriders in the world. Talent has played a large part in Jackson’s extraordinary riding ability, but so has his hometown of Squamish.

With one of the most densely packed trail networks on the planet right outside his door, Jackson can challenge himself in any mountain biking discipline he chooses, every day of the year. Whether whipping out jump lines with his friends or pinning long, rugged downhill descents to eclipse his personal record, Jackson always rides to have fun. He thinks you should, too.
