Mat Rebeaud is back on the bike, and training hard to be back to his former strength. A little over a week ago he completed construction of his own foam pit, and so far it seems to be helping Mat alot to get the feel of the bike again.

"First day on the bike, first jump on the foam pit, my arm doing good. So happy!!!" Mat explained after his first jump, and since then he tells us he’s been doing great, jumping in the new foam pit a bunch and his under-flips are back better than ever! 

"Every few days I notice a lot of improvement."

This is great news for Mat, who had originally hoped to be back for round 2 of X-Fighters, but after his recovery took longer then hoped, was forced to sit out the event.

With a bit of luck we will see Mat at round 3 of X-Fighters being held in Russia on the 26th of June. Good luck buddy.
