In the Adventure Division, the overall winner was Eric Klammer, who won the foot race to the top all three days and flew really well; followed by Jared “fast packer” Scheid who tied for the win on day 2 and had an epic race; and in 3rd we had another of the Colorado crusher team, Carl Marvin. Incredible performances by this whole Division and can’t wait to see you all in the PRO division next year!
In the PRO Division we saw a lot of very cool moves in the skies and a lot of changes as the race developed, but the story was owned by one of the sports biggest legends, Matt Dadam. He’s been flying an average of 30 hours a year the past few years with responsibilities at home and at work taking precedent, but that certainly didn’t show this week. He was the only pilot to topland the first turnpoint on day one (sexy move dude!) and kept it together in style the remaining two days to fend off Bill Belcourt who charged hard with a win on an epic flying day on day 2 and then followed it by making a series of strong moves in the air fighting it out in tough conditions on the final day to nail second place behind Kevin Carter (who tied for 5th overall). 5-time Red Bull X-Alps competitor Honza Rejmanek was the only pilot in the Pro class to fly a B wing and showed his skills by sliding into 3rd place after a great final day. What is Dadam going to use the $5,000 prize for? A new wing of course!
