Archer, boosted his profile late last year, when he became the youngest person on record to backflip a motorcycle 75 feet at just 15 years old.
A protÌ©gÌ© for some years of one of Australia‰Ûªs most decoration FMX athletes, Cam Sinclair, Archer achieved many strong results as a junior motocross racer before focusing on FMX for the most part of 2012.
The opportunity for Jayo, as he is affectionately known, to join the revamped Zero Seven team, came thanks to his work ethic with day time employer SPMX, who is in charge of technical direction for the team. Team owner Mark Haughton, was adamant that the youngster is well deserved off the chance to race again against the best in the country.
‰ÛÏJayo has been a great help to the team along side Powelly (Steve Powell) at SPMX. We have the bike there and I really wanted to offer him the opportunity to enjoy himself and get some experience in racing at a senior national level." explained Haughton. "We have placed absolutely no pressure on him ‰ÛÒ just to go out and have fun and represent the team to the best of his ability, which we know he will.‰Û
