Pro Q&A: Cam Wood
Hailing from one of the coolest scenes in BMX—Salt Lake City—comes this month’s pick for Ride’s Pro Q&A reader letters section, Cam Wood. This is your chance to ask Cam about anything you’d like. We’ll throw a few suggestions out there for you (like riding for S&M, being a part of the SLC and 50/50 crew and scene, building the Tanner trails, his clips in 50/50’s That’s It! video, his upcoming part in S&M’s video I Wanna Live, how his friend Mike Aitken’s recent crash has affected him, his gnarly street moves, etc., etc., etc.) but feel free to challenge him with your own questions and topics.
Either post your questions here on this page or e-mail them to keith.mulligan@transworld.net and we’ll make sure Cam gets them and puts the As to the Qs. Please make sure to give your name with your question, punk.

you take some pretty nasty spills, like trying to jump onto about a bike length top of an electrical box at high speed, and fall hard over and over until you nail a tree. do you ever just decide that you gotta stop with some tricks before anything bad like that happens, or is that what it take to stop you? shred on!

December 5th, 2008 at 10:04 am
How has Mike Aitken getting hurt affected you? Did you ride with him a lot? Are you going to start wearing a helmet now? You shred, but everyone falls. Peace out.

ok so i know that you spend a lot of time at tanner building and all that, but how come your such a dick when kids come to ride, and they help water and all that but you still bitch them out?
December 5th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
I’ve heard you spit some sweet Raps, so i was wondering if your rapping is influenced by all of the Crips (ony 1000,haha) in SLC that you grew up with? When’s your first single coming out?
December 5th, 2008 at 5:58 pm
my sources tell me that you have a very artistic mind. Do you have any plans for school or something in that area down the road?
December 5th, 2008 at 6:04 pm
Hey Cam Wood, I thought your part in That’s It was sick and when I saw a photo in one of your bike checks a while ago of you dropping a huge set of stairs onto an upslanted road, I had one question? How the heck do you do drops to flat correctly? Is there a method to do them safely? I thought that you would have a bit of experience in this category so if you could write a little to explain the concept of drops it would be sick!-Javaun C.B.

Why don’t you love me anymore?

Do you remember Sarina Rivera? She says you guys once dated and they couldn’t find you one night after a party, but you ended up sleeping on the roof of her car. True or not true?
December 6th, 2008 at 12:43 am
What up Cam? As a fellow SLC rider, I know you ride the U of U frequently. What is your favorite spot, and did you build that sick wallride launch under the Student Services building?

What was it like switching from a company like FBM over to S&M? What prompted the initial split between you and FBM? Who would win in a fight, Crandall or Moeller?

December 8th, 2008 at 2:38 pm
I know some of the riders out there enjoy competing, do you? Do you ever feel like its more of a chore than something fun to do?
December 8th, 2008 at 3:06 pm
do you feel it is more important for kids to be influenced by local riders? or riders they havnt ever met before and just see in videos. i feel when kids look up to their local shredders they become a more original rider.
December 8th, 2008 at 11:15 pm
Hey we’ve met a few times, but when are you gonna come ride guthrie again? Always sick watching you and matt. Heard Eddie talking about you getting a signature frame when I was up at 5050 last, when’s that gonna hit and what’ll it be like?
December 8th, 2008 at 11:22 pm
Oh props on tanner too, even tho me and my friends suck at dirt its still way sick to have that around. Do you know any good spots to learn handrails here around Salt Lake?
Thanks man
Loyd
December 8th, 2008 at 11:23 pm
Who came up with the idea for hot feet?
December 9th, 2008 at 3:22 am
Will you start wearing a helmet full-time again after what happened to Mikey? It would definitely help with the riding you do. Keep on mowing !
December 9th, 2008 at 6:37 pm

Are you an outsider cuz you hate to ride with lots of people.
December 10th, 2008 at 12:56 am
Would you rather be in a car for an hour with elf farting or show up to tanner and find tons of mountainbikers riding the trails?
December 10th, 2008 at 7:44 am
Hey Cam, When you coming back to Brazil??
December 10th, 2008 at 4:03 pm
