Cam Pianta

Nickname: Piano

Age /DOB: 24 years old (8/1/1987)

Hometown/Location Now: Benalla Victoria / floating around the countryside

First Time On A Bike: Grew up riding a bike around the neighbourhood, somehow didn't end up getting ran over by too many cars! Ended up getting into it when I was 14-15 because lots of my mates were into it! I spent more time falling off and on the ground in those first years than I did riding around ha

Years Riding: 9-10 years

Riding Style: It changes pretty often, although I don't mind trying to go fast at stuff; it just seems to work out better in the end. Plus having tears in your eyes from the wind feels good.

Influences: Nasty, Cam White, Tj Lavin, Mike Aitken, Stephen Murray

Number Of Broken Bones: Both collarbones, both ankles, couple of fingers and toe breaks as well

Favourite Places to Ride: Cam White's yard, Lav's house, Camden trails, Anthem skatepark or anywhere you can go fast and air... I'm not to much into jibbing

Drinks: Jack Daniels and coke (not premixed) Carlton Draught

Drives: A holden stock as the day she came out of the factory ha

Music: My music is pretty varied. My iPod is a crazy place, but some favorites would be Bliss N Eso, Game, ADTR, Bullet for my Valentine

Your Rules To Live By: It's only BMX. Have fun, keep smiling and everything will be sweet as mate!

Typical Day: Try and sleep in if I can, Get up, Interjerb, eat food, work, Go ride, interjerb some more, eat again, sleep, Rinse and repeat.

Sponsors: UNIT, Pilgrim Bikes, Connections BMX store. I also I receive gear from Globe shoes and TSG helmets.
