Roneblack46 Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 300m ascent per lap is HUGE..... 1200m in 28km. Going to be tough. One lap is equal to two and a half laps of ascent atThaba XCO track.
Iron Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 its going to be awesome !it will seperate the men from the boys fast !super excited , more technical the better .
nigelhicks Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Some of the new pieces that Nicks building are awesome! ... Guys ... get your Drop off, jumping, and switchback skills up ... because there are a ton of cool technical sections to negotiate SwissVan and Danger Dassie 2

Guys ... get your Drop off, jumping, and switchback skills up ... because there are a ton of cool technical sections to negotiate Hey Nigel, How about taking a full video of the track for us and posting it here? Us GP guys don't get to go down there to practice. Would be a great appetizer to see some of the track. My first view will be on 21 August at first official practice.
nigelhicks Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 I think nick has done some already for the XC eliminator track - but not sure about the Masters XC course ... I'll see what i can find and will make a thread for it.
