Adam Banton Interview

ADAM BANTON

Hometown: Originally Nokesville, VA. now, Scottsdale, AZ.

Age: Just turned 37.

So what have you been up to? 

Loving this winter in Scottsdale. Enjoy riding in a t-shirt, exploring all the new spots around PHX, and trying to strum some new songs on my guitar and record.

You came to CA recently. How was that ? 

It was a great trip, started off with a Odyssey Team trip in Palm Springs, then I added a a SoCal part of it to visit S-one, shoot photos, and film in S.D with Kosman.

Who do you ride with? 

I always have a hard time answering this one, it really depends, if I'm at home, it's with what ever locals are down to ride during the day, on trips it's a big group with the Odyssey team or a smaller crew with Eastern. Good times either way, and shredding happens on any obstacle at any spot with those dudes.

What do you like to do when you're not riding? 

Hmm, it used to be Snowboarding and working on music. Now, having moved to Scottsdale, it's just more of trying to play more and get closer to recording for my 3rd album, writers block seems to happen even when you play instrumentals (hahah)

Any trips planned? 

Yep, Visiting Pro at Woodward West in a week for Spring Camp.  Looking forward to playing music there, the salad bar, hanging with campers, and riding the new hanger. 

Sponsors:
