Matt Tongue
Matt is a both a sick rider and talented photographer. He is a classic story of leaving his job to pursue a life in mountain biking, being drawn to Whistler as the mecca of biking. He is also a team rider for NF and is constantly out filming and riding across the Sea to Sky.

Pol Molina
Pol is the newest rider to the Evolution Team and we couldn't be happier having this character on the team. Always riding with a smile and bringing the good vibes, you can catch Pol coaching and guiding in Whistler and Squamish. When he isn't inspiring the new generation you can catch him shredding the Bike Park.

It's ya boy! Whistler's next top model, The Fresh Prince of Big Air, Sammy G. Hailing from the cycling capitol of the UK Bristol, Sam's quest for big air and steep terrain has led him to many of BC's biggest spots over the last 2 years. His style and attitude when he rides is infectious.

Denis is pure speed and style. He spends his summers off-roading to the most elusive trails in his Tacoma and capturing some of the best looking photos with his buddy Mark Mackay Photography. Part of the "Mahalo My Dude" you can find him in many of their youtube vlogs. This summer Denis and the MMD crew will be touring around BC bike parks; expect lots of fun antics and serious shredding.
