Summary

Today I had a chance to sit down in Temecula CA with “The King of The Skateparks” himself, Eddie Fiola.  BMX champion turned Hollywood Stuntman, Eddie took his talent for riding (and falling) to the big screen on such movies as The Hangover, Independence Day, The Italian Job, Indiana Jones, and more. In this episode, not only does Eddie talk about the beginning days of BMX, but what his transition was like to Hollywood, the origin of the EF Proformer Project (and maybe a special announcement….) and one of my favorite points:  Working on new tricks, or doing tricks you can do 100% of the time. I speak to that point at the beginning of the episode.
