Nitro Circus: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Nitro Circus is a television show centered around the world's greatest freestyle motocross rider Travis Pastrana and his crew of top action sport athlete buddies. There is a special chemistry with this group. Whether they are trying to double back-flip a motorcycle, jump out of a plane without a parachute, or flip a Big Wheel over a 70-foot gap, these guys are going hard 24/7 and there is no downtime--it's just fast and faster. The show follows Travis and the Nitro Circus Crew as they travel around the world setting up outrageous stunts and pushing the human body to the limit, constantly looking to innovate the world of action sports. Travis' compound in Annapolis houses a full motocross course, foam pits and a home-made waterslide carved into a hill creating a self contained extreme sports circus. Whether they are base jumping, sky diving, riding, driving or relaxing, this group of tight-knit, highly-skilled, adrenaline-fueled friends always take the action "to eleven" with the hammer down.
