Brandon Semenuk, Brett Rheeder, Cam McCaul, Ryan Howard, and Tom van Steenbergen return to the program for 2017 under the guidance of mountain bike legend, Andrew Shandro. 2016 brought memorable standout performances from the team, including a Crankworx Whistler Slopestyle win from Brett and Redbull Rampage win from Brandon. This year, look for the riders at classic events like Crankworx and Red Bull Rampage, as well as in new videos released throughout the season.

This year, The C3 Project welcomes Swedish breakout performer, Emil Johansson to the team. Emil proved that he is ready for the next level with a strong 4th place finish in slopestyle at Crankworx Whistler. Hailing from the town of Trollhattan, but living in Falun, the 17-year-old is confident for 2017.

Emil is looking forward to expanding on his momentum from 2016, and riding with such a seasoned group of athletes:

“Honestly, I am speechless to be on the same team as my favourite riders. It´s something I didn't think I could accomplish. One year ago, I didn't even have an FMB license and now I am here, riding for my dream bike sponsor! I couldn't be happier.”

Tom van Steenbergen.

Find Emil on Instagram at @johanssoemil. Look for the C3 team at major events, and follow them on Instagram at @c3project. The new home of racing at Trek is racing.trekbikes.com, where you’ll find photo albums, the latest videos, and rider profiles and stories about all of Trek’s athletes.
