Sydney Whitewater Festival – K1 Women’s Slalom Winners Run and Results

2019 Sydney Whitewater Festival, Penrith (Australia) – Top 3 K1 Women’s Slalom Winners Run and top 10 Results.

In the K1 Women class, Germany’s Ricarda Funk finished ahead of hometown favourite and current world champion, Jessica Fox.

“I was really happy about my run, I had no touches which is great as I almost always touch a gate so I was really happy about it all,” Funk said.

“Nearly the whole world is here. We came at the end of January and we will stay here until the Monday after Oceania Championships next weekend. I love to train here and I always love to come back because I think it’s one of the best courses in the world and it’s one of my favourites.”
