Solo en el juego de los Lemmings había más crueldad premeditada por el diseñador del nivel. Aquí no llevan paracaídas. Doy por seguro que Pauline no asiste a esta copa del mundo, me equivoco?
Dudes on Pinkbike will say you need an enduro bike at minimum for this kind of track and defend their point to the death.
Hopefully no one gets broken on this stuff an hour into racing. So close to the Olympics, not sure I'd risk it if I was in the top ten.
This is a proper XC course.
What is this nonsense? Great looking course but doesn't seem fit for XCO. I believe there should be a difference between the disciplines. Maybe this is how XCO evolves.
Não querendo ser penssimista…. mas… acho que estão querendo matar alguem nessa pista!!! Só acho 😏
Just cancel the cross country world cup and pump the money into EDR, this course is a blur between XC and an enduro stage and im pretty sure you'd get round it quicker on a 170/165 full susser 😂
Es obvio que estan utilizando a los corredores como marionetas del espectaculo…. Pasen y vean señores, tenemos corredores saltarines, esquivan obstaculos inncesarios de una disciplina que no es el Enduro ni el Descenso….. de chiste. Que sera lo proximo, un backflip a media pista?. Respeten las jodidas disciplinas. Xc no es Enduro; Enduro no es DH…..marquen esas lineas o tendremos intrusismo
This is a sick course, will favour the real XCO riders who put the time in on the MTB and don’t just sit on the road bike..
I do feel like we might all need a new 140mm XCO bike with new standards on everything by the end of the season.
All the Enduro & Downhill riders are tuning in to watch XC race now, lol.l live seeing riders challenged and the best will still place high
Jeebus some "dirt roadies" are gonna get messed up on this course!
why nobody does proper drops… whyyyyy??
Finally some mountainbiking! This is going to sort the roadies from the riders!
Finally XC gets technical. It needs to be otherwise roadies will just show up and win everything cause they are a lot fitter
Hit it Sammy Maxwell!!! 🤘
See one of the best had knee pads on. They arent getting that much if any aero. They make great knee pads these days.
Gnarly
Would love to see how a World Cup Enduro rider handles it.
Great track.
Without technical features, XC is just Cyclocross…
this race is going to be a disaster. save these obstacles for the enduro/downhill tracks.
Crazy 🤪🤐
Designed for Downenduro bikes. Knee & elbow pads required…Reckless who ever signed of on this. Goodbye Olympics…
Finally an xc course worthy of full suspension and dropper seat posts.
The former roadies jumping over to XC racing are crapping their bibs.
Con flight attendant es muy fácil 😏
Is it me or the middle line on that drop is faster
DHXCO 💪
Time for dropper posts with more mm's. As well, most coming off the bigger drop in the rock section are almost slamming their front end down. I'm guessing they don't want to sail off of it, but at the same time it looks like they're using their brakes too much or continuing to pedal too close to the edge (they're not getting setup enough).
Finally the Downcountry bike has a home ! Or is the the birth of CrossEnduro 😂 either way it looks great to me.
Clearly more road miles than skill building.
This drop is scary.
Crash Montana 🤟🚵♀️
