Re: [434] World BASE RACE 2011
New sponsors and new dates http://worldbaserace.com/

We are really happy to bring Five Ten onboard this year, and they will contribute with shoes and lodging at Innfjorden for the Invited athletes! My goal is to have free heli and free lodging + some freebies from sponsors for all athletes in the future, who have qualified for the race. This is the first step.

Thank you Five Ten for your interest and support!

Betsson will contribute with live broadcasting production, and helping us to bring this up to another level.

I am also happy to see the athletes starting to get sponsors because they are doing sports, not because they are doing dangerous extreme activities.


The 9th of February 2011 we celebrated Goovinn's 3rd birthday. And what a celebration! We celebrated with starting up a breath-taking sponsoring contract of the world's fastest flying human being.
Espen Fadnes - a Norwegian.
This is about wingsuiting from high cliffs and in even higher speed. Espen Fadnes is the man millions of people have watched on youtube flying just on an arm's lenght distance from the mountain face in his yellow wingsuit. In 2010 he won the title "The Worlds fastest flying human being" and today he is signing his first sponsoring contract. With a project management consultancy firm from Gothenburg in Sweden.
