JUNIOR U23 SPRINT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP – AURONZO 2023
Auronzo di Cadore is both one of the most instagrammable and one of the smallest places that ever
hosted a World Championship. We all had to adapt to the confined space but mostly the teams that
had to go up and down the hill during the week.
As far as the competition is concerned, we most take in consideration that some of the young stars
were absent because they are preparing for the Olympic Qualification in the end of August.
Nevertheless, Tamas Szabo, Maria Olarasu and Thorbjorn Rask are some of the most recent
World Champions in Auronzo that are familiar names in the biggest senior competitions.
Also, there's always some very good surprises in this kinds of Championships. We would like to
point out Luka Lauper from Switzerland, that we hope it becomes the face of a new swiss
genaration of paddlers, and Yoana Georgieva from Bulgaria, that showed that she can also be very
competitive in the 500 meters. Both with two medals in single events.
