NAVAS PETIT: THE UNKNOWN X GAMES MEDALLIST

4 years ago | Words: Andy Wigan | Photos: GASGAS Motorcycles

A relatively unknown Spanish dude rocked up at the recent Summer X Games in SoCal. And on debut at the extreme sports event, he not only threw down with the who’s who of the Freestyle MX scene; he went on to claim a bronze medal in the Moto X QuarterPipe High Air competition (smashing the previous record in the process!).

So, who the hell is Navas Petit? Well, we know that he’s a 25-year GASGAS ambassador, an avid content creator, a sick rider who’s constantly hucking his MC450F to dizzying heights, a proud Spaniard, and widely regarded as a loose cannon. But what’s he all about and where did he develop his incredible riding talent?

To get to know Navas Petit better, check out this cool “The Steezy Spaniard” edit that offers an exclusive insight into the life of this free-spirited freerider, or this more in-depth interview with the guy on GASGAS’s website.

And if you’re yet to see these dudes sending it 50 feet into the air off a quarterpipe, check out the 2022 Summer X Games’ Moto X QuarterPipe High Air highlights here. As Travis Pastrana would say, that is ridonculous!
