X3M Parcouring World Championship 2009

X3M is the Official Sponsor of the Parcouring World Championships 2009. From 09 to 11 October 2009 the 3rd PARCOURING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP will be held at the YOU in Berlin, the largest youth exhibition in Europe, attracting more than 200.000 visitors! Visit the official web site - parcouring.com

The X3M Parcouring™ World Championships will take place in Berlin at the YOU, Europe’s biggest youth fair. Athletes from all over the world will compete in two different contests: speed and freestyle. In the speed event the competitors leap over obstacles, which are specially built for Parcouring™ and try to complete the course as fast as possible. In the freestyle event a jury judges the athletes. The criteria are based on performance, flow, creativity and technical difficulty.
 
X3M is the title sponsor of the third Parcouring™ World Championships. The host agency of the World Championships Kultos AG and the Swedish fashion label X3M have agreed on a long-term relationship to support Parcouring™. Additionally to the title sponsoring X3M will perform as the exclusive supplier of all sporting equipment.
“This is a perfect marriage”, explains Roland Fust, CEO of sports@street-lab AG, the general importer of the nordic brand. “When you put on a X3M outfit it makes you feel very special and a complete individual. Therefore it is in total accordance with the free spirit of Parcouring™. This partnership is a great opportunity for us, and we are looking forward to a long partnership in the future.”
 
Both, Oliver Schill, executive of Kultos AG and Daniel Barkowski, project manager of the YOU, believe holding of the World Championships at the fair is an ideal solution.
“We are very proud to host the X3M Parcouring™ Event. Both address teenagers and young adults. X3M Parcouring™ World Championships is a sports competition with athletes from more than 12 countries. The YOU is the ideal stage for this extreme sport which is growing in popularity all around the world. The mixture of music, sports, lifestyle, cultures and education is a great platform for this event”, says Barkowski.
 
“We all look forward to see you at the fair and at future competitions.”

Roland Fust (CEO of sports@street-lab AG)
