Crankworx Innsbruck 2022
WHIP IT OFF – RECORD CROWD AT THE FIRST CRANKWORX INNSBRUCK EVENT
Over 3,000 fans celebrate the return of the crowd at Crankworx Innsbruck and the start of the festival at the reservoir.
With perfect summer weather and a relaxed atmosphere, the fans celebrated the start of Crankworx Innsbruck. In the late afternoon, the 90 registered riders set off with the spectators to the reservoir on the Muttereralm. The Official European Whip Off Championships presented by POC were a successful start to an action-packed festival week.
The two winners were also overwhelmed by the mood of the spectators. “The atmosphere was unbelievable!” reports Robin Goomes from New Zealand. “I actually wanted to take it easy today, but all the fans next to the course and at the lake, that’s pushing! The crowd was amazing, that fills us riders with energy again. I’m so happy that we can finally all celebrate together again.” The 25-year-old was able to build on her victory from last year and once again secured the highest place on the podium.
This Thursday is packed with two pro events, the Specialized Dual Slalom Innsbruck presented by Thule and the Rockshox Pump Track Challenge Innsbruck. In addition, seven side events await all visitors. The Crankworx Innsbruck Expo opens at 9:00 a.m. with a total of 25 exhibitors and various food trucks.
