English version :
Austria, Slovakia and Slovenia founded a new Freestyle Cup, called Alpine Rivers Freestyle Cup (ARF Cup).
There will be four venues:
Graz, Austria (8.5.2010); Wildalpen, Austria (26.6.2010); Tacen, Slovenia (24.7.2010) and, last but not least, Čunovo, Slovakia (25.9.2010).
Ratet will be persons who participated in at least three of the four Freestyle competitions. Points will be added up, which means those who participate more often will have higher chances to win the Cup.
Winners will not only be awarded the honour of being the very first winner of the ARF Cup; in addition, they will also take home the absolutely beautiful, glittering cup. Apart from this there will, of course, be numerous other prizes!
What is more, there will be an additional “Old Bastard” class, to also tempt more experienced paddlers to take part in the competition.
Wildalpen, formerly largely famous for its White Water facilities, offers a spectacular venue on the “Heli Welli”, (hole). Don’t worry! This is not the hole next to the campsite, which usually sees a lot of swimmers. Another venue, Tacen, was last year’s talk of the town because of the smashing party-organization. This year this is due to another reason: they expect to meet competitors with a newly designed playspot.
So, pack your boats and – off we go! Looking forward to enjoying a fresh start in 2010’s season with lots of motivated competitors!
