Red Bull fanatics we are, but not because it is some flash-in-the-pan fad drink or copycat...it's because Red Bull is an original...it's a lifestyle...it's the energy boost in our power consuming chase for adventure.
My wife, Becca, and I run the Red Bull RockCrawling team along with the dedicated help and friendship of many. Frank "Chief" Johnson is our longtime friend and lead spotter. Dallas "Stinky" Ashley (formerly Dallas Nunn) is one of our closest friends and our team's super hard working Crew Chief. Mike Foster is our latest addition to the team and he's worked his ass off as a fabricator, go-fer, competition wrench...you name it...this guy's off the hook for sure. Finally, but not the last for any reason other than we save the best for last...Rob "Bender" Park is our lead fabricator who's worked for the best fab shops in the US. Most recently, he worked for Dan DuBose at what we consider the greatest shop ever, Blue Torch Fabworks. Somehow, Bender and BlueTorch have the skills to turn rockcrawlers into works of art. Their skills are giving us the edge in performance and presentation.We run this team with a vision to help grow the sport of rock crawling to a worldwide level of recognition. Red Bull clearly stands behind that vision and we're lucky enough to have Pro Comp Tires supporting the effort as well! Travelling alongside of "Rat" Pat Gallagher, Johnnie "LongHair" Lemana, and Scott Wine of RP Films and their DVD Series, Haulin or Crawlin, we hit events mostly on the western half of the US. We do travel east occasionally, and as of late, have travelled or are making plans for travel to Australia, France, Mexico, and Russia for RockCrawling events.Our background in professional sports actually began in the insane sport of Professional Cliff Diving. Yes, like in Acapulco, we travelled the world diving from super tall cliffs, bridges, castles, radio towers, you name it, all in search of excitement and adrenaline. Like Red Bull, we have wings! Over the years with the US High Diving Team, both Becca and I brought home numerous World Titles and even better, tons of stories that will be exciting even on the hundredth time we tell them.Now, we find ourselves happily strapped in our high tech off road machines, the Red Bull RockIt and the Red Bull RockHer! Competing in the WE Rock RockCrawling and XRRA RockRacing series, a crazy schedule keeps us on the road a ton. The recent debut of our newest RockCrawler, The Red Bull RockHer II (built at Blue Torch Fabworks) was a total success and we're looking forward to an amazing future of exciting competitions. We hope to see you at an event someday and if you ever see us, don't be afraid to introduce yourself!
Remember, we are featured drivers in the Haulin or Crawlin DVD series by RP Films so if you want to see more of us, pick up a DVD!
