The Goat Cave - EP 105: Carson Donovan

Today's guest is most known for his unmatched skill and style when it comes to park riding, his originality is so refreshing in today's age of repetitive trick combos. It's clear he takes a lot of influence from freestyle motocross with his flip combinations, but he also embodies the Midschool era with more simple tricks like tables, turndowns to fakie, and superman over double coping spines. He represents Canadian BMX so well with his positive attitude, and genuine care for the BMX community. There's no doubt in my mind, Carson Donovan will make his mark on the Canadian BMX scene, and put himself in the ranks of Jay Miron, Dave Osato, and Drew Bezanson.
