Everest Jersey and Zwift Rewards I would like to see

Please vote in top left corner for Everest Jersey!

Here’s some ideas of what I would love to see:

  1. Everest Jersey (just a badge for all of that effort?)
  2. Tron helmet
  3. Bike “Fun” frames and upgrades: Even if they are slow, a few challenges would be to purchase or upgrade, you would need X amount of ride-ons, or earn x number of jerseys, or finish x number of events/races.

Upvoted for the everesting jersey, a lot of effortis putting it very very mildly (I bought my irl finisher’s jersey as soon as possible)

A 1000 x AdZ jersey would be highly appreciated too :blush:

Problem with Zwift putting new things in the game they most of the time don’t award them retroactive. So you all have to do an Everest again to get the jersey.

Same as with new route badges they put into the game on already exiting route. You dont get them even if you have done the route already.

Couple of other ideas:

  1. Kickstand: When you stop you can get off your bike and put the kickstand down.

  2. Functional rearview mirror: When equipped you always see a picture-in-picture view of what is behind you while riding.

  3. Item (helmet or something) that shows heart rate zone: Many won’t want people to know they are in the red, but I wouldn’t mind it.

  4. Time trial bike that cannot be drafted: Special bike when you really don’t want people drafting off you (might be confusing because others won’t understand it, but maybe now there’s a draft indicator maybe folks would understand it better).

  5. Baskets, and things to put in the baskets: If you are using certain bikes you can add a basket, then add different things to the basket such as a puppy, cat, scotty, mini dragon, groceries, gels?

  6. Poses/attitudes/post-up animations: Ability to unlock different behaviors for idle animations, or other activities such as finishing races/courses/KOM segments (different post-up behaviors), and ability to throw your bike to the ground, shake your head, lower your head, raise your fist, etc. when you lose a race :slight_smile:

They can batch process that same way they did for the rapha festive 500

I’m okay with that, because a jersey should only be available to those who have done the vEverest properly.

Maybe make the jersey something that must be unlocked by a code or an API used by people from the official site after your effort is validated. So excludes people doing repeats of the escalators in NYC using their computer mouse. :slight_smile:

Same for special ADZ or Ventop jersey, not really worth it because it would be just grabbed by the bot riders or those who are 30kg. Until they are stopped, I don’t want bespoke special jerseys for 365x ADZ or similar. Also should have requirements for being in sim mode (no ERG workouts, you must ride those gradients).

You did one a while back I understand, and at a very fast time if I’m not mistaken? All recovered now?

Did you get your effort added to the official Everesting site?

I am intrigued/curious how something like that is even possible.

Oi, that was pretty hard work :wink:

It is. I tried it in the name of science.

I didnt even save it on Zwift, so its not on the Everest site, and not on Strava also.

With the changes to the escalators you could probably do it much faster now

I am pretty sure I am never going to do that again :wink:

And your next challenge is to do it by the actual rules and get it officially verified and all legitimate.

How long did it take you!? And how many ascents?

U turns at the top and bottom?

More about how the mouse is used to do that, other than clicking the U-Turn button, I guess.

3 hours and 39 minutes I think it was. And 840 climbs.

I’m surprised there isn’t a vEveresting jersey in Zwift. It looks like the in-game badge has a prayer flag at the summit of Everest. It would be cool to have a jersey inspired by that.
