After attending Bozeman High School during his freshman and sophomore years, he and his parents moved to Phoenix in 2018 to go all in on BMX. Cam shifted to online school for his junior and senior high school years to travel as much as possible to compete. In Phoenix, Cam’s amateur career took off with more people to train with, more tracks to ride, and the weather allowed him to train year-round. After a highly successful showing both domestically and internationally in 2022, Wood emerged as one of America’s top BMX racers. In his first full season as a pro, he won his first USA BMX race at 19-years-old, landed on several USABMX podiums, and made the Elite World Championships final, ended up 8th in the world.
