Aaron Chase<br />

Hi, my name is Aaron Chase. My<br />

discipline is Mountain Bike Freestyle.<br />

My friends call me AC. I was born on 17<br />

November 1978 in New Hampshire,<br />

USA. My special talent is my unique,<br />

technical style and creative lines.<br />

My philosophy of life is ride hard and<br />

have a good time. The most important<br />

person in my life is my wife and kids.<br />

My favourite food is grilled cheese<br />

and apple sauce. My favourite music<br />

is Pink Floyd.<br />

Bio<br />

“Ride hard and have a good time.”<br />

Although he’s only in his mid 30s, Aaron Chase has already been declared a “legend<br />

of mountain biking”. He’s been on the cutting edge of the sport for over a decade,<br />

innovating not only the way people ride, but the way courses and bikes are built, as well<br />

as how <strong>MTB</strong> films are scripted and shot.<br />

Since winning the dual urban freeride grails of Red Bull Bike Battle and Red Bull<br />

District Ride, ‘AC’ has gone on to pioneer the all-terrain slopestyle movement that<br />

reclaims the creative spirit of mountain biking. And one look at his schedule – packed<br />

with film shoots, comps and coaching gigs – proves that, when it comes to the legend<br />

of Aaron Chase, there’s still a lot left to write.<br />

A long-time collaborator on Freeride Entertainment’s “New World Disorder” series,<br />

Aaron is also a popular director, editor and rider for Don Hampton’s DH Productions,<br />

and starred in the company’s 25th DVD adventure, “Here We Go Again”.<br />

Riding, films and designing courses, Aaron is taking on anything that comes his way<br />

and admits he just loves to share his passion for catching air.<br />
