WORLD MOUNTAINBOARD CHAMPIONSHIP AND ITALIAN MOUNTAINBOARD CHAMPIONSHIP

For the second consecutive year, Bardonecchia welcomes the big freeride mountainboard event. The start  will be given at Pian del Sole and candidates will go down as far as Campo Smith, that is to say a 2-km long course and a difference in altitude of 300 meters, with a average speed of 40km/h and top speed until 60 km/h!

The English, Pete Tatham, Europe and World champion, will have to defend his title against his main opponent the English Tom Kirkman. The two favorites will also have to defend the championship’s first places against hardened athletes such as Poles, Russians and Slovaks and complete French and Swiss teams. Riders coming from Brazil, Japan and even United-States – inventors of mountainboarding- will be expected.
