Race career
Aaron Gwin started his cycling career racing BMX from the age of 4. By age 8, Gwin was racing at a national level. At age 12, Gwin moved on to motocross and raced up until he was 17, when he quit due to constant injuries.{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=June 6, 2009|title=Aaron Gwin Interview: The USA's World Cup DH Threat|url=https://mbaction.com/aaron-gwin-interview-the-usas-world-cup-dh-threat/|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200914094115/https://mbaction.com/aaron-gwin-interview-the-usas-world-cup-dh-threat/|archive-date=September 14, 2020|access-date=September 14, 2020|website=Mountain Bike Action}} In 2008, at age 20, Gwin was loaned a bike by fellow professional downhill racer and good friend Cody Warren and was encouraged to compete in a race. In his first race in the Fontana Winter Series, he placed 3rd, and began racing from then on, quickly signing with Yeti Cycles.{{cite web|url=http://www.bicycling.com/article/0,6610,s1-6-12-18376-1,00.html |title=Mountain Bike Riders: Aaron Gwin - mountainbike.com |accessdate=2009-04-29 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090418130332/http://www.bicycling.com/article/0%2C6610%2Cs1-6-12-18376-1%2C00.html |archivedate=2009-04-18 }} He became well known for breaking into the international World Cup scene after only 8 months of riding downhill.{{cite web|url=http://bikemag.com/features/onlineexclusive/8-27-08-online-exclusive-aaron-gwinn-is-turning-heads |title=www.bikemag.com // Online Exclusive: Aaron Gwin Is Turning heads |accessdate=2009-04-29 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090108134452/http://bikemag.com/features/onlineexclusive/8-27-08-online-exclusive-aaron-gwinn-is-turning-heads |archivedate=2009-01-08 }}
Many saw Gwin as the savior for US downhill racing on the international scene, since his 10th-place finish at the Mont Sainte-Anne World Cup in 2008 was the first American top 10 finish since 2004.{{cite web|url=http://www.pinnedmtb.com/aarongwin_interview08.htm |title=PINNED MTB || AARON GWIN Interview 2008 |accessdate=2009-04-29 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081021063545/http://www.pinnedmtb.com/aarongwin_interview08.htm |archivedate=2008-10-21 }} He has since won eight United States National Championships for Downhill, in 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017.
In 2011 and 2012, Gwin dominated the UCI World Cup downhill series. Gwin won 5 out of 7 World Cup races in 2011, and finished 13th at the UCI World Championships in Champery.{{cite web|url=http://www.uci.ch/mountain-bike/ranking/|title=Mountain Bike - Rankings|publisher=}} In 2012, Gwin once again dominated the circuit, taking first place in 4 out of 6 World Cup races. He finished in 128th at World Championships in Leogang.
The year 2013 was a disappointing one for Gwin, with unexpected poor results culminating in an accident involving a tree at the World Championships.{{cite web|url=http://www.sicklines.com/2013/09/20/aaron-gwin-injury-update-interbike-2013/|title=Aaron Gwin Injury Update – Interbike 2013|publisher=}}
In 2014, Gwin's racing improved from 2013, although with only one 1st in the World Cup along with the USA National Championships. His racing showed recovery from his 2013 setbacks, but suffered several mechanical accidents, such as his run in Leogang at the UCI MTB World Cup in 2014, where he suffered a flat tire as he left the start gate, which resulted in the tire coming off of the rim;{{cite web|url=http://www.pinkbike.com/news/video-aaron-gwins-flat-tire-flyer-world-cup-2014.html|title=Video: Aaron Gwin's Incredible Flat Tire Race Run|work=Pinkbike|date=16 June 2014}} or his 2015 race run at the Leogang UCI MTB World Cup where his chain broke on the start line, and he raced without pedaling for his race run, managing to hold his speed and win the race.{{cite web|url=http://www.pinkbike.com/news/video-aaron-gwin-chainless-leogang-2015.html|title=Video: Aaron Gwin Unchained|work=Pinkbike|date=14 June 2015}}
Riding style
Much of Gwin's style and skill come from his motocross experience. His BMX racing experience has also contributed to his ability to ride smoothly, bringing him success in Dual Slalom and Mountain Cross.
Teams
Gwin was sponsored in 2008 by Yeti Cycles.{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=|title=Aarow Gwin|url=https://aarongwin.hookit.com/bio/|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190211211342/https://aarongwin.hookit.com/bio/|archive-date=February 11, 2019|access-date=September 14, 2020|website=Hookit}} He left the Yeti team in November 2010 to join the Trek World Racing Team after relocating to Temecula, CA.{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=November 9, 2010|title=Aaron Gwin to ride for Trek in 2011|url=https://dirtmountainbike.com/news/aaron-gwin-to-ride-for-trek-in-2011.html|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200914094643/https://dirtmountainbike.com/news/aaron-gwin-to-ride-for-trek-in-2011.html|archive-date=September 14, 2020|access-date=September 14, 2020|website=Dirt Mountain Bike}} During his time at Trek World Racing, he won two World Cup Overall titles, in 2011 and 2012. On January 7, 2013, it was announced that Aaron would be riding for Specialized Racing, replacing Sam Hill on the team. His teammate at Specialized was Troy Brosnan.
File:Aaron_Gwin_2015.jpg After a successful season with Specialized, Gwin announced that he would be leaving the big brand to ride for up and coming brand YT Industries for the 2016 season.{{cite web|url=http://www.pinkbike.com/news/its-yt-industries-exclusive-gwin-interview-2016.html|title=It's YT Industries - Exclusive Gwin Interview|work=Pinkbike|date=8 February 2016}} In 2019, Gwin signed with Intense Factory Racing.{{Cite web |last=Ker |first=John |date=2019-01-23 |title=Aaron Gwin Announces That He's Moving to Intense Cycles |url=https://mbaction.com/aaron-gwin-announces-that-hes-moving-to-intense-cycles/ |access-date=2024-03-08 |website=Mountain Bike Action Magazine |language=en-US}} In 2024, Gwin left Intense Factory Racing and formed an independent team, Gwin Factory Racing.
