Notable:
Unofficially known as the best freestyler never to medal at XG or WX, Adams executed the first backflip no-hander lander ever in competition (April 2003 Vans Triple Crown, Minneapolis). Was paid $50,000 in Nov. '02 to flip in Pesaro, Italy.

Quote:
"I haven't liked my execution recently on a lot of the tricks I do like Rock Solids, Corpses, Super Cans and stuff. So I've been working hard to polish all of those."
