NIGEL SYLVESTER: The world from beyond my handlebars

I feel more comfortable riding my bike sometimes than walking.

LAURA LING: When I watch you ride, I am just transfixed.

NIGEL SYLVESTER: Like most kids in my neighborhood,

just riding bicycles around was the thing to do.

It was a way to get to where ever we wanted to go.

And it was that first point of like, I felt freedom from home.

until I finally seen BMX riding for the first time on TV.

And that's what really changed everything for me.

this is what I really want to do in my life.

Because of my neighborhood and because of my environment,

and dreaming to be a professional BMX rider

People would sometimes call me a white boy

with only young white men from middle America

But it was something that I had for a very long.

And I would have never imagined in a million years

LAURA LING: Did you get pressure at home from your family

to follow that traditional route and go to school

My family, my mom and dad, came to America

It was very rigid growing up, which was fine.

It taught me a lot of valuable life lessons

that I would later carry on into my career.

And those are things that I use every single day.

It's like, how much are you willing to sacrifice?

How hard are you willing to work to go achieve

NIGEL SYLVESTER: I work every single day.

Anyone that knows me knows that I'm thinking about bike riding,

I'm thinking about a project every single second of the day.

And when it comes to the actual bike riding,

sometimes it may take one try to land a trick.

It may be something you have to leave and come

LAURA LING: You're not just a professional BMX rider.

You really are a BMX artist and filmmaker.

What are you trying to accomplish through your videos?

NIGEL SYLVESTER: For me, it's about sharing my point of view

Not many people can get on a bike and go blast on a bridge

or bomb a hill in SF or blast through Shibuya Crossing.

For me, I never really embraced riding contests.

I just want to deliver people an amazing experience.

I want them to watch my videos and just be in awe

and be amazed and learn something and be inspired.

LAURA LING: Would you say that BMX riding

NIGEL SYLVESTER: It's something I do almost every single day.

And if I'm not doing it, I'm thinking about it.

You know, it's always around me, all the time.

The feeling of landing a trick is like nothing else

It's such a feeling of a self-accomplishment.

It's about making it look good, about making it beautiful.

They know that feeling of cruising down a block

and how joyful that is, that level of independence.

Once you find that sweet spot and you find it

all on your own, you're able to just soar.
