Rider Profile: Casey Groves

Posted on May 7, 2012 in Riders

Casey has been riding since he was 10 or 11 when some kids built a jump on the corner of his street. He knew he wanted to go pro once he saw some old Kranked movies and wanted the lifestyle of travelling the world going to contests and making movies. In 2008, in order to get invited to Crankworx, he went to the Whistler Air Affair which he won. He followed that up with 13th in the Slopestyle and 1st in the trick showdon at Crankwox. Since then, he’s been living the dream.
