2023 RedBull XAlps:After a smooth start at noon on the first day and crazy hiking at night, the progress of the second day of the competition on June 12th seemed to have been accelerated again. Nearly half of the contestants, in order to achieve better rankings, passed through Germany at an astonishing speed and headed towards Switzerland.
In the past 20 years, there have been 10 Red Bull Alps competitions, and perhaps there have been high-speed attacks on the opening day, as well as players walking along the lightning like path. However, in terms of competition progress and intensity, they are far from comparable to this year.
The next day, even before break time, 15 contestants had already completed and passed the third and fourth points of the competition. The progress is fast, and even the next stop, the peak of Zugspitze, has appeared in their vision of the direction of progress.
The contestants had originally expected a good weather day for easy distance flights, but they didn’t expect that the hot airflow would be generated faster than expected, which led them to quickly reach point 3 in record time. At that time, the first person to land and complete the check-in was Italian player DUROGATI, who passed through here at 10 am and immediately headed towards point 4. However, the location of point 3 in Germany has special flight permit regulations, which have affected the selection of takeoff points for athletes and forced them to adjust their route and pace.
Ulrich Grill, the founder of the competition, exclaimed, “Since I founded this competition, I have never seen any competition like this year, which is a tense and exciting opening. Perhaps with the help of the increasingly perfect weather forecast, the first winner will appear at the end of this weekend in Zell am See, and the suspense is, who will be the outstanding player? I know that MAURER has always been the winner who defeated challengers from all walks of life, but this time it seems like it won’t be that easy. He will face the most threatening competition ever. At present, the competition is no longer led by MAURER, but by ten thousand horses galloping ahead of the group’s 15 players.
These 15 players include French players PINOT, ALONGI, and Italian player DUROGATI, among others. Among them, the French youth team represented by ALONGI and TANGUY cannot be underestimated. They are young, have team cooperation, and have some competition experience. I believe they will persist until the end of this competition.
Yesterday’s most striking player, Hungarian TAKATS, was still in his hot state. The former Aerobatics god also seemed to have found the knack of the hiking flight competition. On the first day, he pressed the group all the way to catch up with the group, and steadily took the lead in arriving at Point 2. Only when German player ANDERS, who used the night card, walked past in the middle of the night, did he lose the lead.
However, ANDERS’ night travel card strategy did not bring any sustained benefits. In order to be the first to reach point 3 like the previous competition, he hiked 38 kilometers overnight and only slept for 2 hours. After noon on the second day of the game, he was overtaken and lost his leading position.
At the same time, the competition at the end of this year’s group is also very eye-catching. The next day, PROCHAZKA, the Czech player who fell behind the first place by 150 kilometers, looked a bit less introverted. Yesterday, he was the first to sleep and said in an interview that he slept quite well, even cooking live streaming these past two noon. He is definitely a clear stream among these competing players.
Finally, on the morning of June 14th local time, the first contestant to leave the competition will be selected according to the elimination rule at the end. As of 22:30 on the third day of the competition, the current situation that has not yet ended, temporarily falling to the bottom are French player GENEVESE, New Zealand player MASZTALERZ, and Song Jiao. However, all three of them use night travel cards to avoid heading back to their hometown early.
On the afternoon of June 14, Beijing time, the Chinese team, who were in Kazakhstan for a series of Paragliding fixed point competitions, came with good news. In the just concluded 2023 Kazakhstan Kabambai Batyr Cup fixed point competition, they arrogantly captured all the gold medals of individuals, groups and women’s groups, and played a …
