7 minutes of video featuring the highlights of a historic 2025 MTB World Cup
The 2025 MTB World Cup is already part of the recent history of cross-country, an intense and symbolic campaign marked by the retirement of Nino Schurter, but also by significant changes in the discipline, records, and unexpected victories.
A video to summarize a historic season of the MTB World Cup in less than seven minutes
One of the main protagonists of the video is Evie Richards, who this season has set the absolute record for victories in Short Track (XCC), establishing herself as the undisputed reference of the short discipline.

The dominance of Specialized is another key point of the summary. The American brand has featured some of the most striking images of the year, even completely occupying the podium (1st, 2nd, and 3rd) at several World Cup events, a rare occurrence at the highest level that reflects the significant change the team has undergone in just a few years.

In terms of outstanding individual performances, the video highlights Puck Pieterse, who achieved two perfect weekends with double wins in XCC and XCO both in Leogang and Val di Sole, demonstrating total superiority on very different circuits.
One of the most emotional and celebrated moments of the season was the victory of Ondrej Cink in Leogang, a win with a strong historical component. The Czech rider achieved his first World Cup victory at the age of 34, ending a long wait.
And, of course, there is room for one of the most important chapters in recent MTB history: the retirement of Nino Schurter. The Swiss rider bids farewell to the World Cup, leaving behind a legacy that is hard to match and closing an era that has marked several generations of fans and riders.
Here we leave you the video with an eye on the next May 1, 2026, when the World Cup will kick off a new season in South Korea.
