Colton, better known as Cole, Desoto started his motocross career at age nine on a one hundred dollar dirt bike. By age nineteen, he went pro riding for Metal Mulisha, and was soon after picked up by the company that he learned to ride on, Suzuki. Known for his risky riding style and relentless attacks at some of the most dangerous tricks in FMX, Cole quickly made a name for himself in the freestyle world. Now, he is one of the most sought out riders in the industry.
The nickname of “The Cadaver” was bestowed upon Cole for reasons other than show. Notorious for graphic injuries, including an emergency liver transplant, a compound fracture of the femur, and the removal of six inches of intestine, Cole would often be found off the circuit for months at a time due to injury. He began to officially be known as “The Cadaver” after failing to land a double backflip. Cole was pronounced legally dead for two and a half minutes due to internal injuries from the accident, and since then, has been known for those circumstances.
Aside from his riding career and manic lifestyle, Cole manages to stay under the radar in his home life. He resides in Temecula, California for the majority of the year, on twelve acres, not far from the Mulisha Compound. He also owns a second house in Ocotillo, California with a complete FMX and Supercross course. Cole lives with his four-year-old daughter, Rumer, whom he has full custody of.
