Who better to test the suitability and shred vibes of the Epic Bikepark Leogang than Aaron Gwin? In 2011, 2015, 2016 and 2017, the Downhill star took the win in Leogang and finished second in 2018. But the US-American also suffered some setbacks on the “Speedster” track. In 2012, his brakes malfunctioned, in 2014 a flat in the upper section led to a spectacular run on just his rim. In 2015, he snapped his chain coming out of the gate, but he didn’t let that stop him – taking the win even without his chain – a feat that is both legendary and remarkable. Following this year’s World Cup, the Leogang lover spent a few cozy days in his ‘living room’ in Epic Bikepark Leogang and spent some days shredding the different trails.
