Chris discovered his passion for Motorbikes as a young kid. Already at 5 years of age, he was ready to take over the handlebars from his motorcycle-enthusiast father. After his first attempts at motorbike riding in his parents garden with a lowered Sachs 100, the Zuendapp with a side car became his favourite motorbike in the following years. All spare change went straight into the gas tank.
As he turned ten, Chris became his first used Trial bike, participated in his first competition and was immediately infected by Trial Sport. In the following years, he toured successfully with his father to the competitions. Soon Chris became German Trial Champion in the Junior division und later competed successfully in the German Championships and the World Championships.
He graduated from high school at which time he decided to study Sport and Biology at the university in Munich. For lack of Trial and training possibilities in Munich, Chris decided to end his Trial career path and focus on with always gave him that adrenaline kick: Extreme Riding, Tricks on the physical borders. Every parking lot in Munich provides more than enough space for this kind of training. Only a short time later he had his first big performance as Show Rider in the largest indoor venue in Munich, Olympiahalle. He began to make a name for himself and soon after became a professional in 1996.
In the same year, along with the shows, Chris decided to take a shot at the Gilles-Lalay-Classic and the Erzberg Rodeo, the hardest off road races in the world. He finished GLC and won Erzberg for the first time. Shortly after he became the first person to climb the 'Via Tina', a level 3 difficulty scale climbing route in Arco/Italy with the motorbike. Till today Chris is the only person to have ever accomplished this.
In the following years he went on to make several more records, like the longest jump over 33 people lying next to each other without a ramp or any other special help on the home stretch at the Motocycle Grand Prix 1997 on Nuerburgring. During an attempt to break his own record on a german televised version of the Guinness Book of World Records show, Chris ran into technical difficulties and crashed, resulting in multiple compound broken bones and the first time in his professional sports career, a trip to the hospital. The next months brought several operations, Rehabilitation Training, hope, set backs, dull prognosis from the doctors. But after 13 months, his body was well enough to begin extreme motor biking again. Chris trained like crazy and won the 'Erzberg 2000'. Chris is back and outclassed the world best enduro riders.
For the first time in the summer of 2000, he intensively concentrated his attention on Street Bike Freestyle. The inspiration of the ability of some Brazilian Stunt Professionals would not let him go and developed into a passion and main occupation. The Street Motorbike became to move towards the middle point of his shows. Things go a little insane when he rocks up the 1000 Ducati Monster. The easier to handle Trial Motorbike is not exactly sitting at home – some tricks are only possible with the Trial Motorbike and the combination of both the Street and Trial Motorbike allows a lot of different stunts. And exactly this wide repertoire makes Pfeiffers show what it is and brings his show up close and personal to the audience.
Itzzz Just SUper Dooper !!!!!!
