Few individuals in the U.K. can call themselves a professional Freerider. At the tender age of 34 Chris Smith has been riding for well over 20 years and has spent over a decade riding professionally. Chris is seriously diverse: he can just as easily be found digging a gnarly Freeride line in a derelict quarry, clocking up the miles on his XC rig or shredding the local Skatepark.
I have been lucky enough to have worked with Chris on several occasions, the most memorable being shadowing him around some of his fav freeride spots in North Wales,
It’s a treat to work with a true veteran of the U.K. Freeride scene, especially one with such a professional approach and passion for the sport. Personally, Chris Smith epitomises what I love most about Mountain biking: Get out there and shred whatever gets you stoked!
