Biography

I’m Arleigh Kemp from Pemberton, BC. I’m 15 years old and passionate about both mountain biking and skiing. I started riding at 2 years old and entered my first downhill race at 7. My main focus is Downhill, but I also race Enduro and Pump Track to keep progressing as a complete rider.

When I’m not biking, I’m skiing big lines with the Whistler Freeride Club, competing at a high level across Canada and beyond. I’ve qualified for the Freeride Championships and love the feeling of pushing myself on and off the snow.
