GIBBONのニュースレターが久々に来ました。
内容は2011スラックラインワールドカップの開催予定と初戦の動画選考についてでした。良く内容を見てみるとびっくり、大阪の文字があるではありませんか。
- 03.07.2011 – Munich Sportfestival, Konigsplatz (GER)
- Aug./Sept. 2011 – Vienna/Bregenz (AT)
- 01.10.2011 – Gearfest, Dayton Ohio (USA)
- 22.10.2011 – IMS, Brixen (IT)
- not fixed: in autumn – Osaka (JP
not fixedとは、日程が決まってないけど開催は決まってるよという意味と受け取りました。つーことで、まず大阪でギボンスラックラインワールドカップのツアーが開催されるのはほぼ間違いないかと思います。日本にトップライナーが終結するんですよ。すごいことです。9月24日には日本の王者を決めるニッポンオープンも予定されています。ワールドカップが行われれれば、メディアなど露出も高くなるはず。2011の秋はスラックラインに大注目です。
