Carey Hart, a name that requires no introduction. He is an American former racer, who turned into a professional Freestyle motocross rider. He has been a bushwhacker in the field of FMX sports since day one.
He is famous for many of his great achievements and winnings. He is the one who is famous for pulling off the first backflip back at Gravity Games in 2000 and forever changing FMX.
However, then he withdrew his approach from competing to initiate his own clothing brand, tattoo company, Supercross, and off-road truck race teams.
To say, that Carey Hart is a busy man would probably not be a justifying statement. Still, it was luckily possible to catch him up during his final stop on Dew Tour where Hart & Huntington organized the Best Whip competition.

It was on the much bigger platform including four-man heat races and numbers of good racing and great tricks.
The event itself was officially a big release with JCPenney.
Here, Hart & Huntington talked openly about their new partnership with JC Penny…..
He said it was a project on which he had been working for a long time. However, it was just a coincidence that National synergy has been happening with the Dew Tour and the involvement of JC Penny with the Dew Tour. The way it all came up was quite astonishing.
To do the announcement of Hart & Huntington in Las Vegas, his hometown and birth of Hart & Huntington, was kind of a freaky thing.
He also shared his experience about the beginning of Hart & Huntington and watching the brand grow slowly to blowing up on the level…
He said, to him it was just a crazy experience. To be liable to build something and make anything in life that you love is a different thing but to be able to start something new and alone is a different thing.
It was just a small and almost insane thought of having a tattoo shop inside a hotel, to evolve into a clothing line then to get back to the roots of supporting motocross riders, wakeboarders, and sports athletes, and everybody that we once worked with.
Carey had a great time teaming up with JC Penny and was fun to share the platform with. But recently, whom JCPenney is teaming up with, are cool and Carey is excited about it.
On asking, now he’s up to what these days when he has a kid, he replied…
He was really confused and almost juggling between kids, working, and riding. He already did X Games, and rode Speed and Style event in Salt Lake City, early this year. Lately, he was on vacation for a few weeks with his wife and baby where his wife was shooting for a movie in New York.
He then returned home from his vacation after two weeks, back to grind. These days, he is practicing for pre-season testing for the Supercross season, which will be held next year. Though all this appears to be a never-ending circle, he loves his job.
He also talked about his Supercross team and his upcoming plans…
There has been radical growth over the last few years. All credit goes to his roster of sponsors he has with Dodge and Sycuan Hotel, which proves to be big this year.
They were successfully able to grow their program and have a four-man team. Soon enough, they will have two semis in their pocket along with four riders.
Josh Hill, who has been sick recently but will be back soon; Ivan Tedesco – their workhorse; Kyle Partridge – local up-and-coming Vegas kid. Very lately, Carey has just signed Josh Hansen and Carey is very excited about it.
