Chris Hultner’s Experience

  • Owner, Photographer/Editor, Layout and Design

    Impound Digital Motocross Magazine

    (Online Media industry)

    November 2008Present (9 months)

    Bi monthly Digital only Motocross Magazine Motocross/Supercross Photography Features Testing Video

    With the extraordinary response Amateur MX Digital version has had when opened to the general public for free, and with hand held communications technology expanding to the moto world at record speed, this seemed like the next natural step.

    Amateur MX Magazine

    (Publishing industry)

    June 2003Present (6 years 2 months)

    After many requests from racers, their families and moto industry, I wrapped what I had done with Motocross West Newspaper into a national monthly glossy mag. I took my Western Amateur Rankings and turned it to a National Amateur Rider Ranking. Ranking the top 500 riders in the country after 8 of the top national amateur motocross races, this is one of the most followed content items in the amateur race scene.

    Amateur MX Magazine is currently the most distributed and followed amateur mx based publication on the market. It is the only monthly amateur mx magazine that is distributed nationally. Amateur MX Magazine is also the only amateur motocross magazine on the market in the world with a digital magazine available on the internet.

    It's website - www.AmateurMX.com is currently the most visited website on the internet with amateur motocross coverage or content.

  • Owner/Editor/Photographer

    Motocross West Newspaper

    (Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Sports industry)

    June 1998September 2004 (6 years 4 months)

    I started Motocross West because the amateur racers on the west coast and across the country were not getting any exposure at all. Motocross West was the most widely read and distributed amateur mx publication on the market, during the 6 1/2 years it was in print.

  • Publishing/Photographer

    Racer X Illustrated

    (Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Sports industry)

    I helped DC start up Racer X Illustrated, for the first 3 issues, from a newspaper to the glossy mag of present. I left to start up my own amateur motocross regional newspaper, Motocross West.

    This position was a great opportunity to do something I believed in - with one of my best friends. Everyone should do this at least once.

    I still do whatever I can to help out an old friend.

    April 1996October 1997 (1 year 7 months)

    I left MXA to try my hand at videography.

    Fox Racing was a great company to work for. I left to help DC start up Racer X Illustrated.

    (Privately Held; 11-50 employees; Sports industry)
