Great Euro Youth Championship in Augsburg

In the European Lead Champion in Augsburgin Germany, 231 teenagers from 28 countries participated. Switzerland was the only nation getting two golds but overall no country dominated. The team manager from Norway, Reino Horak comments, "I talked to several other coaches and everyone said it was a very good organized competition with excellent route setting. It is interesting to see that the medals are so evenly spread over so many nations. Personally, I especially enjoyed the big fight all the strong boys from Great Britain put on."

Last weekend Norway got one gold in Dornbirn but in Augsburg, it was pretty much only the countries in northern Europe that did not get any Top-6 positions. It should also be mentioned that Alex Totkova did not participate as she instead competed in the Chamonix World Cup.
