New School by Sven Martin

Supertalent Asa Vermette rattles flat-out across an off-camber Austrian hillside in this stunning photo by Sven Martin, shot during the 2024 Leogang DH World Cup race.

Vermette is one of the most exciting prospects ever to come up through the junior downhill ranks and represents a new generation of riders already putting established elite champions through their paces. His body language in this photo perfectly describes his style: relaxed but brutally fast.

This is an image for the ages – an icon of downhill racing.
