[edit] Biography
He was introduced to the discipline in 2005 by his brother Jonah Mayfield[1]. In early 2008, after releasing a sponsorship video[5], he was recruited to be part of the Urban Freeflow performance team[4].
In 2009 he competed in the second Red Bull Art of Motion competition, where he was given the nickname Beast[1]. He failed to finish in the top 10.
