James Doerfling

Kranked Revolve - Doerfling
Style: Freeride, Downhill, Street 
Hometown: Williams Lake, BC 

James Doerfling spent much of his youth mountain biking through the local trails of Williams Lake. "I started mountain biking around grade 7, then eventually I began racing at the BC Cup series", explains James. "After about 4 years of racing, I had enough.  I realized that freeriding was more my style." Since then, James has grown as a competitor, making the top four in the Airprentice, and making the coveted "sweet 16" in the Race Face Ultimate Freeride Challenge.

James has a very diversified style. "I pretty much like to do a little of everything," he explains. He was able to showcase this during his segment in PROGRESSION - Kranked 6.  "The most challenging part", says James, "was finding the zone and the line. Once we found it, everything came together pretty fast.  It has some epic single track at the top, then it goes into some huge booters and hips, then some cool built stuff with a nice three-foot drop, which was challenging to do because I had never done a 360-degree drop before. The line then finishes with a crazy natural wall ride and a huge booter right on the edge of the Fraser River."

James is gaining a lot of momentum in the riding community.  In addition to his riding and filming, he works regularly with Freeridetours teaching camps and guiding tours.
