The Taieri College year 12 pupil aligned them all earlier this month when he placed second in the Australian moto trials championships youth class, for 16 to 21-year-olds, near Adelaide.
What made his achievement even more remarkable was the limited time he had to get a handle on his new 2011 Gas Gas Racing 125cc trials bike.
"We bought the bike in Australia and only had five hours to run it in and it wasn't completely run in on the first day of competition," Fox said.
With parents Gavin and Vicky there to support him, he had six hours to finish three laps of an obstacle-strewn course featuring 15 sections.
Although each section would take under 90 seconds to walk around, negotiating the rocks - some with drops of up to a metre - and logs on his trials bike, while trying not to place a foot on the ground or fall off, was a much longer endeavour. Points are accrued for each of these faults, meaning the rider with the lowest score wins.
Many of his fellow competitors were on 250cc to 280cc machines, which are more powerful, making them easier to ride over the obstacles, Fox said.
He opted for the lower cc rating because in May next year he will compete in an Australian-based world moto trials round in the youth class that requires its 16 to 18-year-old entrants to ride 125cc motorbikes.
Fox's top-spec bike was built in Spain, has no seat and weighs only 70kg with petrol on board.
"Basically, they are made to be light," he said.
Balance, bravery and throttle control are the main emphasis for this distinctive style of motorcycle competition, so speed is unimportant, but low gearing is vital.
"Our third gear is about the same as a motocross bike's first gear."
Preparing for the three-day New Zealand moto trials championships in Waikato this weekend, Fox has been spending an hour a day training during the week and will also fit in a three-hour ride that incorporates balancing his way over concrete blocks, logs and banks during the weekend.
He will be competing in the experts grade against his training mentor, top Kiwi international Jake Whitaker, who has just returned home from a stint racing the junior world championships in Italy, having achieved top-five finishes.
It will be Fox's sixth trip to the North Island to compete this year and he is looking for sponsorship to help cover the cost of his specialised sport.
