Scotty Cranmer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Scotty Cranmer (born January 11, 1987) is a BMX rider from Jackson, New Jersey, USA. Nicknamed "the Bulldozer", he is sponsored by Vans Shoes, Felt Bikes, Tylenol, Fox Clothing, Pro-tec Helmet, Unbound Energy Drink and Staff Mail Order.
He started off his BMX career racing, however, he came to realize that he preferred freestyle. He put himself in the professional BMX freestyle scene by placing a respectable ninth in the 2003 Toronto Metro Jam followed by winning his second pro competition - the 2003 UGP Roots Jam. In addition to riding professionally for the stunt team Hell On Wheels Productions based out of Tom's River, NJ, and a yearly regular of the popular Woodward Camp, he has been able to boost the BMX scene in New Jersey and his own performance in part because of his parents' BMX/skate park name The Incline Club. Despite his relatively young age, he regularly places in the top 3 in almost every competition. He recently appeared at the tribeca flim festival in New York City. Scotty has just added to his list of records by becoming the first person ever to land a front flip-tailwhip in competition. During the 2008 season, Scotty was riding his parents recently renovated Incline Club skatepark when he had to bail on one of the new ramps. He came down with his foot on top of the spine and broke his foot quite severely. This caused him to miss all of the 2008 Dew Action Sports Tour and the X Games. Scotty has been nursing his foot back to health and is almost back to 100% ready for 2009 competition. Scotty also recently purchased his first home. He turned the spare living room into a huge bowl with a flat screen TV inside the ramp. He is also working on his own paintball area inside his basement.
