Cordano-Russell competes in the men’s street division and said he finds it a lot of fun to demonstrate his knowledge on the track. “To be honest, I’ve never felt any pressure. I just want to go out on the course and show what I know, my style. And of course, I always want to win. That’s all I really want to do in life. And other than see people enjoying what we’re doing out there. It’s cool to feel that energy on the course,” he concluded.
