Connecting Vaulters
Next week the FEI Vaulting European Championships for Juniors will be held in Kaposvár (Hungary) from August 1st to 5th. The site in Kaposvár has already hosted one World Championship (1996) and two European Championships (2007 and 2014) so far, so there is quite an expertise in terms of organization! We would like to give you an overview of this year’s event:
The historical CHIO Aachen is as impressive as you can imagine it: this is definitely one of the most spectacular competition of our discipline. We had the pleasure to be part of this magical event and we are more than flashed. We got to know so many like-minded people who love our discipline as much as we do. A weekend full of passion and joy!
Well, it seems that France will only be remembered for the extraordinary results at the FIFA World Cup in Russia this year.
This is a thunder clash into French Vaulting: The FFE “Fédération Française d’Equitation” officially announced last Wednesday that the French Team, so called and adulated Noroc, won’t take the journey to Tryon 2018.
Unfortunately, the Russian team wasn’t very lucky at last year’s FEI European Championships in Austria. They had problems getting visas to enter the EU and finally decided to compete with 5 instead of 6 vaulters. And if that wasn’t enough, they had troubles with their horse and couldn’t perform their freestyle rounds. However, the past is gone and now they are looking forward to the FEI World Equestrian Games 2018!
We have talked to Alejandra Orozco, the first and so far only Mexican to compete at international vaulting competitions and hopefully at the World Equestrian Games 2018 in Tryon. As one of the pioneers in equestrian vaulting in Mexico she is doing a great job promoting our beautiful discipline in Latin America and around the whole world. Read on to learn more about her challenges:Weiterlesen

We have spoken to her about her trainings, plans for this competition season and vision as candidate for the FEI Athletes Election.
We talked to several members of the National Team and got their feedback about how Vaulting is growing in Brazil and how they are getting prepared for the World Equestrian Games, in Tryon 2018. Their story is a beautiful example of international collaboration:Weiterlesen
This year the European Championships for Juniors will be held in Kaposvar, Hungary, from 1 to 5 of August. We have spoken to the junior team from the Netherlands, which is gathering forces to qualify and have fun competing there.
Next weekend we will have the Canada Cup CVI (from 24th to 27th of May 2018). So we have talked to Charlene Kostecki, the Chair of Vault Canada and Chef d’Equippe of the Canadian National Team. She gave us some insights on the development of vaulting in Canada, their plans and goals for WEG 2018: to send an almost a full complement of vaulters to WEG!
