With ten X Games appearances already on his resume, Jay is one of vert's long-time veterans. He blasts some of the highest airs on the halfpipe, maintaining his extra altitude throughout a battery of unique back-to-back tricks. His perfect front wheel re-entries are as smooth as glass, and his huge 540s will have you catching your breath every time. Not one to limit himself to bike riding, Eggleston is also an avid rock and ice climber, and has conquered 100 of the highest peaks in his native Colorado, including the 54 above 14,000 feet.
