XC-Contest Final Ranking 2016

Written at 15:20 by kitetracker.com

XC_new

The final KiteTracker XC-Contest Ranking of 2016! Congratulations to all final contestants and their awesome tracks!
There have been many interesting and long tracks – and like the XC-Formula has been designed, not every track in the high mountains.
So the system worked and everybody had a chance to compete, no matter while kiting in flat areas or tracking so many gained altitude meters in the mountains.

In the end – it’s being decided by the riders between each other, to which rider the victory belongs! Each rider of the top 10 XC-tracks can vote for every other track.
Points from 0-10 can be voted for every track and the average of all the votes will be multiplied with the original XC-Points – > this new number will define the final ranking!

Jozone – or let’s say Johann Civel ;) did it!! With his awesom RideUp Session, he did a good base for his original XC-Points and the other riders judged him to an average of 8.0 points – together with these two numbers, he has a good margin to the 2nd place! Congratulations! 500 Euros for you as cash prize Johann Civel ;) !!!

All Sessions here (Numbers in Brackets: initial XC-Points, Rider-Judge-Average-Points, Final Points):
1. Johann Civel (238 x 8.0 = 1904) : http://www.kitetracker.com/gps/tracking?r=jozone_210
2. Simone Borgi (208 x 7.4 = 1539): http://www.kitetracker.com/gps/tracking?r=simoneborgi_126
3. Jonas Lengwiler (188 x 7.8 = 1466): http://www.kitetracker.com/gps/tracking?r=jonaspkd_9e
4. Tanguy Albrici (231 x 5.2 = 1201): http://www.kitetracker.com/gps/tracking?r=tangz989_22

Snowkite Speed Contest Winner 2016

Written at 20:58 by kitetracker.com

The area around Haugastol in Norway has been THE place for so many showdowns, battles, movies, Events – and not just because of no reason…
Perfect conditions for almost any competition – and Jonas took this chance to bring home the Snowkite speed contest – it was hard and took a long time in a session with many attempts to gain for maximum speed.
Whopping 7 hours and just below 150km took him with his Ozone R1 V2 in good conditions to get this years record of 107km/h! Go on Jonas!!!

Congratulations Jonas to the sick speed of 107km/h!
