"I dedicated my life to racing, now I need rest": the final chapter of Nino Schurter

The final chapter of N1NO BEYOND is here, released today, and it marks the end of one of the most influential careers in mountain biking history. A final footage that follows Nino Schurter from the moment he decides to make it public until his last pedal stroke at home, between Crans-Montana and Lenzerheide.

N1NO BEYOND concludes its story: the final episode that accompanies Nino Schurter in his definitive farewell

When the two Swiss races at the end of the season were announced, Schurter was clear that this would be the place and moment to say goodbye to his career in the World Cup and the World Championship. In this episode, the veteran racer opens the door to an intimate chapter, from the recording of the retirement video to the moment he crosses the finish line for the last time in front of an enthusiastic crowd.

The question that looms over the entire episode is how to manage the pressure of competing knowing it will be the last time? The documentary not only shows the champion but also the person, with his contained emotions, close support, and an atmosphere that mixes nostalgia and celebration for all that has been achieved.

This final episode, longer in length, follows Schurter both on and off the circuit. It is an emotional summary of his last two appearances as a professional and also a privileged look at his family environment, friends, SCOTT-SRAM teammates, and those who have accompanied the Swiss in his rise to the status of GOAT of XC.

Crans-Montana and Lenzerheide thus become the perfect setting to close a career that accumulates 36 World Cup victories, 10 elite world titles, and a complete Olympic record. A long-sought ending, and, as he himself states, even better than he imagined.

"The perfect ending, better than I could have hoped for. I have had an incredible, long career, and now it's time to start something new. To open another chapter." says Nino Schurter himself.

In addition to the series, SCOTT has just released Nino Schurter's book. A collector's volume that reviews his career with unpublished photographs and testimonies from key figures in his journey.
