Professional Quad Cross

Roman Khorev, the 2013 Russian quad cross champion, lives and trains in Podolsk. One of the stages of the championship of Russia was held in Moscow, so we managed to attend Roman's training session and see how he prepares for the competition. The track in Pechatniki is extensive, with a lot of jumps. Icy areas and snow significantly complicate riding because of poor, unpredictable traction, so it always makes sense to ride it beforehand.

Roman trains in 25–30 minute sessions. Riding longer is impossible because of arm pump: riding a quad puts a heavy load on your arms. Professionals quickly recover between races, but they reach the finish line with their last bit of strength!

We recorded Roman's training sessions from different angles, so you can see interesting sections and professional riding on the track!
