The race was divided on two classes: Short (24 hours, 160 km) and Long (48 hours, 231 km)
The course was designed by Vitaly Chegarovsky, a master designer who weaves adventure through every step of the trail. The race began with a beautiful canoe stage, and it was a spectacular sight with more than two hundred kayaks on the line in anticipation of the start of the race.
Later, the participants were waiting for a rafting stage on a turbulent river on inflatable mattresses. There were no fixed requirements for the selection of boats, even inflatable crocodiles and unicorns were encountered! The stage turned out to be rich in emotions, both among the participants and the audience.
The teams also went through some complex of technical stages on Kilpola island, for example a bungee jump and a long coasteering stage which really tested their limits!
Two teams were competing for the gold medal in the Long class: Seiklushunt from Estonia and TRITON - POWERUP Adventure Team from Russia and in the end they scored equal points and claimed first place together!
