Red Bull X-Fighters Who's Who: Robbie Maddison

Andy Schaad and Joerg Mitter for Global-Newsroom.com

As we look ahead to Red Bull X-Fighters at Battersea on August 22, Maddo already has some form when it comes to performing around London landmarks…

Fast becoming FMX’s poster boy, Robbie has carved out a dual career as a daredevil pioneer of wild statement jumps (last month he jumped London’s Tower Bridge) and a major contender for Red Bull X-Fighters glory. He’s also got his own trick, the ‘Maddocopter’, a sort of one-handed 9 o’clock Nac where the rider goes into a ‘star jump’.
