Kona Factory Team - Val Di Sole, Italy

In Elite Men’s, Connor Fearon endured a season of ups and downs, one highlighted by his first ever podium, a 2nd place in Leogang, Austria–just .045 seconds off of Aaron Gwinn’s now legendary chainless victory. Thanks to some great qualification results, and the podium finish, Fearon’s 13th overall puts him in some elite company. He too now puts his sights on the World Championships.
Finishing her Elite Women’s World Cup debut in style, Tegan Molloy rode consistent all season long, coming close to cracking the top 10 numerous times. Her 13th overall is a great start to what promises to be a great career. Thanks to all of our sponsors and the efforts of these world class athletes.
