Filip Podmol: You gotta have "balls" in FMX

Filip Podmol is a Czech freestyle motocross rider whose career is packed with adrenaline, big wins, and bold challenges. He started out as a young talent in traditional motocross before switching gears to freestyle, where he's been climbing the global ranks for over a decade. Not only did he take down X-Games champions in Mexico and land the first double backflip by a Czech rider, but he's also jumped into the world of YouTube content creation. His latest video project, "You Can Never Win," shot in America with our fellow HF rider Daniel Hanka, is loaded with insane tricks and unique footage. And as Filip himself says, in freestyle motocross, you need courage and some serious "balls."
