Fast Life returns starring Finn Iles and Kate Courtney

Canadian downhill phenom and American XCO world champion headline web series' second season

Mont-Sainte-Anne

Canadian downhill racer Finn Iles is set to star in the second season of Red Bull’s Fast Life web series.

For Season 2, Fast Life goes uphill not just down. Iles will be sharing the spotlight with American XCO world champion Kate Courtney.

The two riders just finished their first year of elite World Cup racing, and the series focus’s on the adjustment of moving up into the top racing category. Both riders faced the weight of expectations after winning the World Cup titles in 2017, Iles as a Junior and Courtney as a Under-23, before graduating into Elite.

New episodes of Fast Life with Iles and Courtney start November 2nd, and continuing every Friday.

Red Bull started Season 1 of Fast Life following French downhill racer Loïc Bruni through his 2017 World Cup season. As Bruni’s teammates on Specialized Gravity Racing, Iles and Squamish’s Miranda Miller often featured in the first season.

If you missed Season 1 of Fast Life, there’s no better place to start than Mont-Sainte-Anne. While it is from 2017, Episode 7 features Miranda Miller talking about injury and building confidence – she would go on to win world championships in Cairns, Aus. that year – and the incredibly ride of Aaron Gwin to win a wildly muddy edition of MSA World Cup downhill
