Athlete Bio
In 2013, Baldock became the first BMX rider to win two gold at the same X Games event since Kevin Robinson in 2006, doing it in Park and Dirt at X Games Foz do Iguacu. At Austin 2015 he’s going for his third consecutive Dirt gold and will contest Park as well. Known for pushing technical ramp riding, Baldock landed a flair tailwhip to downside whip in March 2015, a new trick that he stuck on a resi-mat. He has a smooth double backflip and unleashed a frontflip barspin to no-hander in late 2013. After his X Games dirt win in June 2014, he went on to win the Dew Tour Dirt event in August.
