One of the many surprises in this year's UCI team list was the news that Jackson Goldstone will be racing for the Miranda Factory Team in 2021.

For 2021, the young Canadian shredder will be joining the Miranda Factory DH team as a first-year Junior rider. He joins a trio of Portuguese riders with Tiago Ladeira, Emanuel Pombo and Nuno Reis as his new teammates. Jackson has never raced at World Cup level before but already has an impressive palmares with wins at Crankworx Dh races in his age group and a win at the iXS Rookies Championships.

bigquotesI’m really excited about teaming up with Miranda for my first year of World Cup downhill racing. Miranda has had some strong riders in past and I’m happy to try and keep that going.

My teammate Nuno Reis and I have been friends and close competitors for the past three years at the IXS rookies Championship races and we get along really well.
Jackson Goldstone

Jackson previously rode Trek bikes with Fox suspension and Shimano components but this could change after the team move. The Miranda team ran Scott bikes last year but details are still thin on the ground as to what set up and races Jackson Goldstone will be riding in 2021. We have contacted Jackson for more information and will keep you updated with any more news we hear about Jackson's plans for 2021.

 What I love about young talent in an industry like MTB is they are surrounded by folks who want to see them successful and healthy. Compare this to other industries or entertainment niches where someone always wants to sacrifice their well-being for a little profit or a marketing pitch. Community rules- and I think MTB has it in spades. Keep looking out for each other and keep promoting our young talent in the healthiest of ways.

 Same! The future of the sport looks like it's in good hands. But do you think that all this attention might be a bit too much pressure on him? I wonder how he deals with it. Maybe he just focuses on riding...unlike me commenting on pb

 I remember the viral video of him riding his balance bike to kindergarten as a toddler, pulling unreal moves for such a tiny lad. Good to see him progressing, even though I now feel so old that I am going to go and weep quietly in the corner

 Have you seen his Shimano - This is home video? They touch on the original video that blew him up and then he pretty much recreates the line to school.

 Might be a strong contender for the first 360 on a WC DH course. So much talent and variety of skills for a young rider. Looking forward to see him racing.
