Monopattino Italia - Avis Ivrea - Scooter Eurocup Italy

Thanks to all who partecipated in Rapy, without them (you) IKSA Eurocup Italy would not have been so amusing!!
In Rapy 2 individual races and 1 relay took place.

We apologise for the inconvenience that the marathon was reduced to just 40 km (20 laps instead of 21), but there was a communication problem between the organizers and the team timing. However the race was harder than the usual because of the wind ;)

FIRST OF ALL: the unbeatable two, Kai Immonen and Rosanne Reijne.
Kai Immonen actually is one of the most strong footbiker in the world, the right "heir" of Hannu Vierikko and, in the same time, the only "survivor" of the great group of finnish Kickbikers....where are all others?

Rosanne Reijne is the strongest women footbiker, in Rapy she won both individual races and the relay too and she won all eurocup races of this season!!

BEST ATHLETS
Best athlets of the Italian IKSA Eurocup are Rosanne Reijne, Maxime Reijne e Anne Nap, all of them kicking in "High Level Van der Laan Step Team". They won 3 gold medals each, 2 in criterium and long distance, respectively in Senior, Junior and Cadet class and the 3rd medal winning the relay race competing in the same team.

THE FACT
Dutch sisters Reijne dominate the race, first was Rosanne in 23'18" (average di 25,7 km/h), and then sister Maxime (first in Junior class) in the time of 23'20, then Carol Exbrayat from France in 24'27" and Patricie Kadlecov, from Czech Republic, in 25'29"

THE QUESTION
Considering that the gap between Rosanne and Maxime in the criterium is only 2 seconds, and 41 seconds in the long distance... at the moment it is very interesting to know how much Rosanne is really stronger than her sister Maxime, and if they are responding to orders of the father (Mario) - the coach of their team - to win in both category (senior and junior). But we can also think that the gap is so short because the challenge for the lead in the team is burning at each race and Maxime is very close to beat her sister, it is'nt? The answer at these questions might be the next European Championship, just in their country, at the end of july!!! Eyes of footbike world are on the 2 wonderful & powerful girls!!

based on a picture by © Eric van der Meide - www.autoped.nl |The lead of the race, Igor, Kai, Jasper, and Marek

THE FACT
Marek Cadlec was born in 1995, he is 16 years old, and in Rapy he arrived 4th in criterium 10 km, only 29" after the "great" Kai, and 5th in the long distance race, 2'35" after the first (Kai). At the moment he is 2nd in the overall eurocup classement, 1st in junior class.

THE QUESTION
At the moment Marek takes point in junior class, but it is clear that he is competing with Kai, Jasper, Jan and others of the main class.
What will happen in the next European Championship ad the end of july? Will Marek win a race in the champs?
What will appen in the next season, will he win the Eurocup tournement in 2012? and in the next 2012 World Championship, could he win some world title?
There is no time to wait, the future is arrived, Marek is ready to compete with the best athletes of the footbike world, junior class or not!

Italy team does the relay better than other nations because their long experience in relay, the traditional italian footbike race. In fact many italians athletes are very fast in relay, more than they are in individual race, becasue they like team work in wich they show their best quality. They also are well experienced in change that can allow them to gain more and precious seconds.

In campo femminile la staffetta è stata vinta dal tem olandese High Level Van der Laan composto da Rosanne Reijne, Maxime Reijne, Anne Nap con il tempo di 18'05 precedendo l'UHL Step, composto da Heike Funke, Elisa Viglio, Ivana Dvorakova, di 2'23".

La vittoria tra i team giovani è stata inizialmente assegnata al team francese Trot'in Lyon, Jean-Charles Quiniou, Arthor Baudet registrato come nella cateogoria Youth, che ha concluso con il tempo di 20'23" precedendo il team Italia Youth, Paolo Deamicis, Lorenzo Ricci, Mirko Cullaz, di 2'44". Ad un successivo controllo è risultato che il team francese ha corso con un atleta fuori categoria (Arthor Baudet infatti è Junior), pertanto la squadra è stata, a posteriori, contemplata nella classifica Senior e non in quella Youth. Di conseguenza al team Italia Youth, o dei Gormiti, è stato assegnato il titolo di vincitore per la categoria Youth.
