The date was set with the meaning, that athletes who participate at the World Cup this year can fly into Zurich, come to Interlaken and leave from there to the first World Cup in Prague the following weekend, before coming over Augsburg to Thun and fly out again from Zurich... makes sense, no?!

We hope to welcome many athletes from abroad to this exciting event 3 Weeks before the VW Multivan River Jam 2008!!
