Two summers ago down in Tehachapi I met a quiet kid named Chris, and one thing you have to remember about quiet kids is that they're usually ridiculous, and Chris Riesner happens to be that when he steps on his BMX.  One of the first things you'll notice is that he goes higher than your average dude, with a bunch of style, and makes everything look good, even old tricks that aren't suppossed to.  As with quite a few BMXers you come across, Chris is also pretty damn thrifty, and creative.  I honestly think Chris would give a young Gilly Smalls a run for his money in not breaking the dollar a day spending cap, a two dollar burrito is a thing of deliberation for this economically minded bmxer.  On the creative side Chris knocks out amazing video edits, great medium format pics, as well as graphic design, the kid is just talented, and he likes tall cans, especially if they're free.  Here's to you Chris.
