Jakob was definitely THE climber of 2011. At 21, he picked up 7 victories out of the 10 stages in the 2011 World Cup.

His only regret must be that he let the World Champion title slip through his fingers at Arco. No doubt he'll do his best to pull off the one title that's missing from his medal table.

1st in the overall World Cup rankings 2011
Winner of 7 World Cup stages in 2011
World Vice-champion in 2011 at Arco
