A rider admired not only for his tremendous talent on the bike but for who he is as a person and what he does for the management of the sport. We can't count his credentials on and off the track, but here are a few: 2x national champion, 4x Pan American champion, world cup racer. @rafaelgutierrez6

Valen is a star in the mountains, he is up to anything, he falls and gets up with more desire, at just over 20 years old he has traveled the country competing in downhill and enduro, he has a ton of triumphs under his belt, including DH in 2022. @valengarcess

This guy has a brutal style, talent and energy, he rides the bike however he wants, he is a dirt jump legend and a great ambassador of Colombian FREERIDE; right now he is in Spain tattooing and destroying bike parks. How cool to have The Apa of the Apaes.

A natural flow that few riders in the world can offer. The ease and style with which he rides his bike separates him from the rest. One of the youngsters in the pack who has a great career ahead of him.
