Chris busted onto the World Cup scene in 1999. He’s been a podium contender since. His aggressive flat pedal riding is his trade mark, his ability to carve a corner unmatched. He doesn’t have to say much, his riding speaks for himself. You never count him out.

2002 - 1st World Cup : Fort William (won by 14 secs)

Major Injuries:
Chris shattered his ankle and broke the Tibia on the same side. He then spent 4 1/2 months with a metal cage around his leg - 7 months off the bike missing the whole of the 2004 season - doctors said he may never ride again.
