Jeremy Hrabal is from Liberty Hill, Texas, is old enough to drink alcohol (legally), and rides his bike when he's not working at the Ramp Ranch skatepark.  He doesn't take any crap from anyone and hates annoying girls.  I've known him for about 4 years now and we've been on a few unforgettable road trips together.  He digs really well and knows how to build good ramps too.  Jeremy always has something different to say and is not afraid to do so.  He's also a victim of the the Chase Hawk weekly/ monthly babysitting frenzy.  Don't get in his way at the park because he will run you over.

First off, how'd you get into riding? 
I would go watch my cousin race, so I figured I had nothing better to do, so I just started.

Did you ever race or did you just start riding ramps?
I raced for almost a year, but i would always try tricks during races and stuff. I would never win, and I just kind of faded into the dirt-jumping scene after that.

What prompted you to start a clothing company? Is it just going to be clothing, or do you want to make parts, too?
I designed a couple of parts, and got some prototype pegs made, but it just never lifted, so it’s pretty much just clothing. I think its just cool to see my logo around.

What’s the vclub? Is there a membership?
You’re either in or you’re out.

You’ve pretty much been a part of the ramp ranch since it's been in liberty hill. Explain any changes you've seen since these other parks have opened up inside Austin. 
Being that we are the only "bike friendly" parks around, I see tons of great riders everyday. Its pretty much a bike park now.

What have you been psyched on lately as far as new tricks, old tricks, and what to ride (street, trails, park).
I'm really psyched to find out that my trails haven't been plowed, I can't wait to get them running again. As for tricks, I think I'm still trying to relearn half the tricks I used to do.

Injuries suck, but tell us about some of yours. 
My injuries occurred all at once. At the end of 2001 i had to get 2 knee surgeries in 2 months. Then a couple months later, after just getting back on the bike, I took a bad fall splitting my pancreas in half. If it wasn't for Loretta Martin, I might not be here today.

How do you feel now?
100%

Do you become a head case when someone pulls out a camera or video camera when your riding?
I don't think I do.

Is there anybody that gets you really amped on riding or trying new stuff?
Everyone in Austin is just so good, I think its mandatory to learn something new each time you ride.

How do you feel about bush and the possibility of war?
I don't really know what’s going on.

Do you like cats or dogs?
Both

Boys or girls?
Definitely girls.

What magazine do you take with you the most when you're on the pot?
"Foxy"

Is there anyone or anything you'd like to talk about?
Thanks to Loretta Martin, Kerri Dehn for pretty much letting me run the skatepark, Bill Bryant at SNAFU, and everyone in Austin that rides.
