Video: Luca Shaw's Lousa World Cup Course Preview

Oct 28, 2020
by James Smurthwaite  

bigquotesJump on board with Luca Shaw X Burgtec for a taste of the dirt here in Lousā.

This track is nuts! Tonnes of fresh loam, sketchy off-camber sections snided with roots, and high-speed sections with big tables for good measure. It's the all-you-can-eat buffet of tracks for sure. Time to fill our boots.—Santa Cruz Syndicate

 Long and fast track.. If it rains that trail will suck. Looks like they just dug most of that track yesterday.

 Even better, Google Translate tells me that 'vido' in Portuguese means 'lively'. Which seems to suit this course quite well.

 A world cup truck that actually looks fun to casually ride... No way!

 My thoughts too! Looks like a properly fun trail, and not as much of a white-knuckle death ride. I'd be curious how it actually rides... video tends to mellow out things...
