Will Copsey

RTH - Hi Will

Will - Hi,

RTH - Tell us about yourself dude,

Will - OK, I'm Will or Willie C, I've been mountainboarding numerous times but back in the old days, I was really into Sega mega drives and motocross.

RTH - Mega Drives, I haven't played one of those for years! What has inspired your riding mate?

Will - I feel my riding has been influenced a lot by snowboarding and my friends.

RTH - Aghhh, Where is your favourite place to ride?

Will - My favourite place to get extreme is XBP with the crew but I also enjoy Knockhill MBC.

RTH - We love Knockhill, it rocks. What is your perfect day mate? Run us through it?

Will - A perfect day for me would start off with eggs sunny side up, with the sun in the sky then I'd go shred with the boys, with a good laugh, and plenty of rails and stacks and end it with a mass decent down the hill.

RTH - Mass decent, that is really extreme mate, what are you looking forward to the most this year?

Will - This year I'm really looking forward to having Rob Dryburgh on the team but it's also going to be cool to go to Boardmasters and hopefully step my game up.

RTH - Nice, yeah Rob is a worthy addition this year! What is your favourite stunt mate?

Will - My favourite stunt are tap indies and I'd love to learn frontside corked 5’s but am yet to try them on dirt.

RTH - But you have got them in the foam pit! That is a start mate! Who is standing out this year mate?

Will - Riding with Ryan gets me psyched because some of the stuff that guy pulls I’m still yet to get my head round!

RTH - We are with you in that boat mate, the guy is nuts! What is the best thing for you about the RTH team?

Will - The best thing about being on the Ride the Hill Team is being given the opportunities to go to events like NASS and Boardmasters because it’s not every day you get to ride on a beach!

RTH - Try Kiteboarding dude, might suit you.......... What board are you riding?

Will - My set-up is Trampa 35 degree long deck, scrub trucks (IN NEED OF NEW ONES ANDY!), GI talon bindings, which are like sofas on my feet and mbs rockstar pro hubs in black, as I can’t afford black rims for my car.

RTH - Was that a subtle hint mate? Oh you sponsored riders will break me! What is your happiest memory of wheelie -boarding?

Will - My happiest Mountainboard Memory is, wow so many but it has to be when I boardslid and landed the XBP kink rail, months later I broke my collar bone doing the same trick, bad times.

RTH - Bad times indeed! What is your best acheivement mate?

Will - My best Mountainboard achievement is 4th in the first trampa challenge, or qualifying for the elite at haredown was quite cool.

RTH - That first TRAMPA Challenge was off the hook! Great fun! Cheers for the time mate, anything else to say?

Will - So long and keep having fun with your riding!
