Mountain cross-country racing is a well-established and conventional major format in outdoor sports. Its events mainly include mountain cross-country running, mountain trekking races, mountain stream and lake boat crossings, mountain bike races, jungle orienteering, rock climbing, rappelling, rope sliding, loaded cross-country, and desert crossings. It is a modern emerging sport that combines elements of various Olympic disciplines, testing athletes’ comprehensive field skills, endurance, willpower, and emphasizing teamwork. As mountain cross-country racing gains increasing attention from the international sports and media communities, the demands on the required sports equipment are also growing higher.
