MTB-Festival Serfaus-Fiss- Ladis Rookies Cup - Replay

Attention gravity fans! The MTB-Festival Serfaus-Fiss- Ladis is celebrating mountain biking from August 1st to 7th and especially the young riders have a lot to look forward to. One week of MTB madness kicks off with the Rookie Camp 2016: an experienced team, built around UCI Masters Downhill World Champion, Alice Kühne, will coach the participating
youngsters. Everyone, who wasn’t lucky enough to get a spot in the camp, can count on plenty of biking action during the “Kona Rookie Games” from August 4th to 7th.



Time to shred and have fun at Bikepark Serfaus-Fiss- Ladis! The highlight of the summer is taking place this August, when the rookies are in the spotlight and many bike activities will put smiles on their faces. 30 participants of the Rookie Camp 2016 will be coached and lead through the bike park. Alice Kühne, who won the UCI Masters Downhill World Championship last year, will show the young downhillers and freeriders how to improve their riding technique, tactic, and line choice. She also brings plenty of knowledge to the table being a sports scientist and will be leading a whole team of coaches and guides.


Jonathan Maunsell is also part of the team. The Irish Kona athlete will share his experience with the participants and show them tips and tricks. His sister will also be amongst those, who will be listening intently. 17-year-old Leah Maunsell is an enduro specialist and has just recently been introduced as a newcomer to the Kona team. Leah is seen as one of the biggest talents in Ireland and also aims to reach the next level with the help of Alice Kühne’s and her team’s expertise. The rookies have got three days to prepare themselves for the highlight of the week and improve their riding skills: from August 4th the “Kona Rookie Games” will put the newly acquired skills to the test.
