Rick was raised in a in a pretty rough neighbourhood where everyone tried their best to make a decent life for themselves. Rick chose the way of the Beyblade, and making it to the World Championships was one way of setting a great example.

At first he is mistaken as a person who feels that working with a partner is unnecessary to win Beybattles. Rick later comes to the realisation that no one Beyblader can be as powerful as many working together as a team.

He also carries his stereo around whenever he Beybattles. It provides him with extra motivation, and also tends to distract his opponents.
