Emma Jarl

About:

At just 18 years old, Emma is already making a name for herself in the world of downhill mountain biking. Based in Westchester County, NY, she’s been riding cross-country trails with her NICA team since 2019, quickly establishing herself as a team leader and a role model for young women entering the sport. In 2025, as she enters her third race season with GIA Racing in the Pro Women’s Category—where she earned an impressive third-place overall finish on the ESC CIRCUIT for 2024—Emma is aiming even higher as she’s determined to make this her strongest season yet with a dedication to improving both her technical skills and fitness. Off the bike, Emma enjoys working at her local bike shop, and is excited to enter her freshman year at the University of Vermont this coming fall.
