ABOUT

HOME TOWN: SEATTLE, WA
CURRENT RESIDENCE: BELLINGHAM, WA

Jill Kintner is one of the most accomplished female athletes on two wheels. Paired with her work ethic and creativity, she has excelled in six cycling disciplines. Starting in BMX and turning pro by age 14, Jill set herself apart at the highest level before making a lateral shift into mountain biking at age 21. Competing in the MTB disciplines of 4-Cross, Slalom, Downhill, Pump Track, and Enduro, her career highlights could stand alone in any one discipline. Still, Jill has risen to the top in all that she has pursued, earning a BMX bronze medal at the 2008 Olympic Games, three consecutive UCI 4X Mountain Bike World Championship titles, 15 World Cup wins, five Crankworx Queen titles, Downhill World Cup podiums, Pump Track World titles, Enduro World Series stage wins, and an outstanding 26 Elite USA National Championships across six disciplines. A member of both the BMX Hall of Fame and the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame, Jill continues to race, win, and inspire. See all her titles here.

Beyond biking, Jill is also passionate about design and illustration. She studied graphic design at RIT in New York and CCA in San Francisco but put school on hold to pursue her dreams. Jill continues to blend her artistic interests with the biking world through personal branding, Bandit Hill, an animated video bringing her helmet graphics to life, coloring posters, enamel pins, illustrated van wraps, custom-painted riding shoes, Hot Laps event branding, jersey designs, and custom SockGuy socks. These are just a few examples of how her lighthearted artistic style complements her fierce intensity on the bike. :) Check out her art.

With a strong foundation in performance, media projects, art, and community outreach, Jill combines her kind nature and athletic ability to inspire people on two wheels.
