🎙️ FMX Legends Podcast — Tom Parsons: The Art of the Whip

In this episode, we sit down with X Games Gold Medalist Tom Parsons, one of the most iconic style riders in freestyle motocross history. Tom opens up about his journey from supercross racer to FMX legend, including the heartbreaking moment when the county forced him to plow down his personal riding compound — just seconds after one of the most impressive lip hits ever caught on film.

We dive into his roots in racing, the evolution of his signature whip game, and the story behind one of FMX’s most inspiring comebacks. Despite being told by the head of X Games that his “mediocre whips” and lack of popularity wouldn’t take him anywhere, Tom went on to win X Games gold, silver, and bronze, becoming one of the most respected riders in the sport for his creativity, authenticity, and undeniable style.

Tune in as we talk about resilience, passion, and proving the world wrong — one whip at a time.
