After Mitch Morrison spent some time in Brisbane, I was informed of some wild shredders down Sydney, including Ammon, who I had never heard of before. Thus, I decided to try and find out who and what the dude is about. Enjoy!
Name, age, hometown & hook-ups?
The names Ammon Chesworth, I'm 21 years strong. My hometown is Bligh's Park from Sydney's west and I'm riding for Above All BMX shop.
What's the riding scene like in Hawkesbury?
The scene here is small but tight, few dudes killing it like Zip, JP & Gabba. Everyone's style is different so it's always sweet to see something fresh.
Typically, how do you spend your weekends?
I'm always searching every weekend whether it be for spots to ride, for some tarts (good or bad) or for the 'lols'. But every weekend I ride, see Zip naked getting hit in the nuts for money and hang with the dudes.
Have you spent much time travelling Australia for BMX, or plan to in the future?
Yeah I have spent a bit of time travelling Aus to ride. I want to travel more but my time will come. Usually hit up Melbs and the sunshine state once or twice a year, with heaps of road-trips in-between to Canberra as well as the Central and South Coast of NSW. But yes I plan on clocking more hours in the car or plane in the future.
Lay down your bike set-up?
Federal Morrow, no brakes, 3 - pegs and soon to be 48 spoked wheels.
How would you describe your style of riding?
Fast, grinds, drops, gaps, with a good mix of humour tricks.
What keeps you busy Monday to Friday?
I work a full-time job as an electrician's labourer, but lately there hasn't been a great deal of work on so it's been 50/50 work and ride.
Hopefully grow a legit moe, ride and push myself, stop fucking dirty bitches when drunk and keep doing whatever the fuck I'm doing that's rad.
Shout outs?
Shout out to Zip for always taking a good beating to his nuts for our humour, Mitch aka jesus aka itch aka top deck Morrison, you for giving me some CRISPY loving, the crew I ride with and Laura and Sean at Above All BMX.

Thanks to Ammon for even being keen to do this and especially to Mitch Morrison for sending me the sweet photos + integrating an amazing little sneaky Stu Dick into the photo. Love.
