Adam Jones X-Fighters © Christian Pondella/Red Bull Photofiles

As you’d expect with a name like Adam, Mr Jones has a quite important first to his name, which he will no doubt aim to repeat at Battersea Power Station.

Now one of the stalwarts of the FMX scene, Adam was the first rider to land a Cordova Flip in competition. He’s a bit of late bloomer, too, as, unlike most of the other riders, he didn’t climb aboard a bike until the relatively late age of 10, but boy is he making up for lost time. He’s now one of the world’s best and a contender at each Red Bull X-Fighters Tour stop.
