Die-hard BMXer and multiple champion of some of the biggest BMX contests across the globe, Mark Webb is No Half Measures personified. From his humble beginnings hassling the older kids for a go on their bike, to winning every major European and British street competition, he’s come a hell of a long way. All this and he’s still only in his early twenties.

As well as pioneering the world’s first Decade 360, he’s been dominating contest riding for the best part of a decade. He’s more than used to suffering for his art, having broken his arm, shinbone and back, dislocated his shoulder and suffered many concussions in the process of trying to perfect complex, daring tricks and break new ground. It’s not just about beating the competition, though – as good as he is at it. It’s also about pushing himself to his limits and finding out just how far he can go. Beating himself, if you like. For that, we salute him.

His ambition in life is simply ‘to be remembered’.

Starting out

I used to thrash around the streets of my estate on a shanty old bike and then progressed to making jumps with planks of wood and bricks. At some point I was introduced to the local Skatepark in Southsea which opened the world to me and paved my future success.

The road to success

Desire desire desire. You have to want it more than everyone else and ride more than anyone else. A bit of natural talent helps and the ability to overcome the psychological problems of suffering serious injuries.

Career highlight to date

1st place in Park and Spine Mini at FISE in Montpellier beating all the top Americans against all expectations. Sweet victory!

Quote that inspires me

“Winning”, Charlie Sheen

Motto I live by

We are all here for a good time - not a long time.

If I wasn't...

If I chose another sport, I’d like to try rally driving. I really respect Travis Pastrana - he is a real crazy guy and a fierce competitor at anything he does.
