About

Moto X is in the Rebeaud DNA. Mat's grandfather and father were both riders and it was a natural step for the Swiss to follow in their tracks. A love of jumping led him to FMX and a move to the USA. In 2006, he became the first European to win an X Fighters event when he triumphed in Mexico. By 2008, Mat was the 2008 Red Bull X Fighters series champion following wins in Mexico (again), Texas, Madrid and Germany. He was also the 2006 FIM FMX World Champion and he has three X Games silver medals. These days, Mat still divides his time between Europe and the US and is one of the biggest stars of the X Fighters.
