Tommy’s first Pro competition was XG’s ’06. He missed the final, finishing a mentionable 12th place. With ‘Die Trying’ tattooed across his chest, Tommy lives up to those words, with a high tolerance for pain that lets him push the limits on rails, gaps, ledges and even bowls.

He drives a used limo, lives in a ghetto area of San Diego and is described as: ‘Fifty percent white, 40 percent black, eight percent Mexican, and one percent Native American, with a sprinkle of caveman and pit bull.’
