Derek Guetter
Founder | Producer | Professional ATV Athlete | Show Host
Derek Guetter has spent more than two decades pushing the limits of what is possible on four wheels.
Recognized as one of the pioneers of ATV freestyle, Derek is one of only a handful of athletes in history to successfully land a backflip on an ATV.
Through years of dedication, innovation, and perseverance, he helped elevate ATV freestyle onto some of the world's biggest stages.
Throughout his career, Derek has performed across North America and internationally with productions including Crusty Demons of Dirt, Nuclear Cowboyz, Masters of Dirt and numerous live entertainment tours. His riding career has also led to opportunities as a Hollywood stunt performer, appearances in film and television productions, and representation within the popular MX vs ATV video game franchise.
Driven by a passion for entertaining audiences and creating unforgettable experiences, Derek eventually transitioned from athlete to entrepreneur, co-founding ATV Big Air Tour alongside his wife Larissa.
Today, while he still enjoys riding whenever possible, Derek's primary role is producing and hosting the show, mentoring the next generation of riders, developing new entertainment concepts, and ensuring every audience receives an experience they'll never forget.
When he's not on tour, Derek enjoys spending time with family, playing guitar, building motocross tracks, producing action sports films, and working on the family farm.
Most importantly, he is a proud husband and father who believes that pursuing your passion is one of the greatest adventures life has to offer.

Derek And Larissa
Together, Derek and Larissa Guetter have built far more than a touring stunt show.
What started as a shared passion for motorsports, creativity, entrepreneurship, and storytelling has grown into ATV Big Air Tour, one of America's leading touring motorsports entertainment productions.
Combining Derek's decades of experience as a professional athlete, performer, producer, and industry pioneer with Larissa's expertise in marketing, branding, media, business development, technology, and operations, the pair created a company that reaches audiences across the United States through live events, digital media, film production, and educational speaking engagements.
Their entrepreneurial journey began long before ATV Big Air Tour. After producing and releasing the action sports film Butter: All Moto Flavored, which climbed the iTunes charts, they discovered a passion for creating and producing their own projects. That success was followed by Butter 2: Four Wheel Flavored, further establishing their reputation as storytellers and innovators within the action sports industry.
Today, ATV Big Air Tour performs for thousands of fans each year at fairs, festivals, speedways, and special events across the country. Built from the ground up as a family-owned business, the company has grown into a nationally recognized brand known for delivering high-energy, family-friendly entertainment and unforgettable audience experiences.
Beyond the live shows, Derek and Larissa have become advocates for entrepreneurship, self-employment, innovation, and lifelong learning. Through speaking engagements, workshops, and industry presentations, they share lessons learned from building businesses, producing events, embracing technology, creating content, and turning passion into opportunity.
Their work has opened doors to opportunities in film, television, media, public speaking, and partnerships with organizations across the country. Along the way, they have shared experiences with some of the biggest names in entertainment and action sports while remaining committed to the values that started it all: family, hard work, creativity, authenticity, and a willingness to take risks.
Whether performing in front of thousands, producing media projects, teaching business owners, or building new ventures together, Derek and Larissa continue to prove that extraordinary opportunities can come from combining passion with persistence.
