Yan Dofin

Yan Dofin

Yan Dofin is pure comedy. You can hear his famous quotes like “Yeah Doggie” and “Lets do the damn thing” a million times and every time it’ll put you in a good mood. Don’t let his funny expressions fool you though, Yan mauls metal. He’ll step to nearly any rail, and he won’t back away from backcountry booters either. Yan’s riding oozes style and his relentless go-for-it attitude has landed him some gnarly footage and photos. Constantly on the prowl for a rail session, a party, a black jack table or a ciggy, Yan is not only one of the biggest characters on the team, he’s one of the best riders as well.

Energy drinks, cell phones, department stores. Snowboarders these days are ending up with pretty ridiculous sponsors. If you could have any company sponsor to go along with Rome who would it be?

I would love to get a free cell phone!!! It is so f**** expensive! Hook me up!!!!!!

All my homies and my family! Because they always push me in what I do and they respect me!
