President / CEO

Raymond grew up racing against the best in the world in BMX, motorcycles, and jet skis, and he brings that same drive and eye for detail to every product RB makes. When he's not in the shop, you'll find him on the road in his own RB van, at the beach, or hanging out with family and fellow RB owners. If you see him out there, stop and say hello.
