Reece Wilson knows his way around a muddy trail, having grown up in Scotland. The Trek rider showed that on Sunday. Under falling snow,  Wilson won an absolutely epic edition of downhill world championships in Austria.

Snow, deep mud and greasy roots were no match for the newly minted world champion.

Before ascending to his throne in Leogang, though, Wilson spent the extra-long off-season riding closer to home.

Armed with just a Trek Fuel EX instead of his full downhill-rig, Reece Wilson shows off his skills on slimy trails in Total Confidence.

Without racing, even Pros had to return to the roots of riding, like a slimy, wet day on a local track. Watch Trek Factory Racing’s Reece Wilson ditch the downhill bike for a trail bike and push the absolute limit with a smile smeared across his face. Reece shows just what his local trails can take aboard a Trek Fuel EX and a fresh set of CushCore. CushCore allows Reece to ride to his peak by squeezing every last bit of performance out of his tires and suspension.

Go bigger with CushCore’s industry-leading impact absorption. Approach corners with blinding speed knowing your tires are 35% more stable – providing predictable cornering and virtually eliminating tire burp. Just plain ride faster – with a 12% reduction of shock and vibration, increased traction and control, you’ll stay fresh and ready for another lap.

Top-level athletes may be pushing to a level we all dream to attain, but just like the Pros, we’re all searching for the confidence to elevate our riding to the next level.

Go Bigger. Corner Harder. Ride Faster.
