　　Carson Storch labeled himself a blue-collar athlete of the axle sports world. No wonder DECKED, the makers of workman-inspired truck bed drawer systems, liked him enough to sponsor him. 　　“I do dumb stuff on my bike and get paid to do it,” Storch shrugs nonchalantly. 　　This “dumb stuff” includes jumping out of perfectly good helicopters for cameras and ending up...
