[Closed] XC racing needs more style.. (2012 WC XC Mens spoiler inside)

Nino's cool 8)

****IN OUTSTANDING !

I wonder how much time he loses by arsing around? 😉

I bet he's not got 40psi in them tyres has he GW. 😉

arseing around adds to confidence and good style destroys the confidence of lesser skilled rivals.

😉

Top man. Look forward to seeing him in a couple of weeks.

Less than he'd have lost if he was racing in flappy pyjamas of teh radnezz.

Look forward to seeing him in a couple of weeks.

Yep, really looking forward to it!

More style is always cool anyway, even at the expense of time!

Awesomeness costs nothing. 8)

Double post.

This was also in a XC race;

Gotta be the most boring type of cycling to watch? Good to see a bit of the x factor

Its those 650cc wheels that do it.........

DAMMM RIGHHTT!!! (In the voice of Shaft)

Nino Schurter rocks. Wonder how he'd get on in Enduro racing?

Yes also Lukas FLÜCKIGER who was 2nd was also turning on the style, Lukas and Nino was racing round togeather and one after the other jumpng off that bridge with a bit of style!

Also if you whant to see style watch UK rider Kenta Gallagher, he jumps drops where a lot of riders have a hard time rolling it!

Kenta's does the odd DH race too (and does pretty well).

That is true GW, think he has also been asked not to any/much DH racing in the XC season... 😉

all work and no play... 🙁

Plenty of decent DH riders in XC. Lewis King won the National Vets title last week. Remember him being in MBUK back in the day. Ed Moseley was in the Elite race too.
