Jeff Herb
Jeff is a badass dude and loves to ride his bike. That is not a big surprise if you live in Aptos and your roommates are Kyle Jameson and Ryan Howard. He throws down, both on his DJ and DH bikes, and is always down to have a good time with his friends.
Ryan Howard
Ryan "R-Dog" Howard is by far and away the chilliest man in mountain biking. We dare you, nay, we challenge you, to find someone who has more fun riding their bike every day than Mr. Dog. You will not succeed. Style? Check. Good vibes? Check. Living in a van down by the river? Oh for sure. Ryan "R-Dog" Howard is what we all aspire to become. Ryan is at the competitions giving it a go, and will frequently take top honors for any event involving style, Whip-offs top this list. His earth shattering good vibes can be seen in videos throughout the year, and frequently make the cut for top videos of the year.
Kurt Sorge
If you take a look at the biggest mountain bike videos, the biggest freeride events or the biggest jump lines you will find Kurt Sorge’s tire tracks there.
Freeriding was born in Nelson, B.C. when Kurt was in his early teens and this birth would shape the rest of Kurt’s life on two wheels. Freeride has taken Kurt all over North America, Europe, South America and Asia. Mountain biking has brought Kurt to every corner of the globe and at still in his 20s, he is just getting started.
Makken
Cycling is Makkens past and his future, and a place where he can express himself freely – without rules. For the third consecutive year in 2015, Makken was invited to participate in Red Bull Rampage. Beyond that he breaks out of the traditional competition direction and rides primarily for its own sake. He is a pioneer in the bike community in Norway, and has helped to launch and build the Fest Series and Hillbilly Huckfest.
Nico Vink
Retiring from world cup downhill in 2012 Nico has since become one of the biggest icons of freeride mountainbiking.

renowned lines.
