Das schnellste Team beim Rise & Fall
Dass die Saison 2019 doch noch nicht ganz zu Ende ist hat Daniel Geismayr gemeinsam mit seinen drei Team Kollegen vom “Team RedBull” am gestrigen Samstag eindrucksvoll unter Beweis gestellt. Bei der nunmehr neunten Auflage des nervenaufreibenden Team-Wettkampfs kurz vor Weihnachten zeigte Daniel Geismayr die schnellste MTB-Zeit und sicherte sich und seinem Team damit erneut den Gesamtsieg.
Sowohl in der Teamwertung, wie auch in der MTB-Einzelwertung holten sich Daniel Geismayr und sein Team in diesem Jahr den Sieg mit einem Streckenrekord – die Form zum Jahresende stimmt also!
Mit am Start war auch Philip Handl. Er hatte heuer mit einigen Unwägbarkeiten zu kämpfen, sodass er nur als letzter Biker auf die mit 3,7 km und 430 Hm zwar kurze aber sehr steile Strecke geschickt wurde. Tapfer holte er auch die letzten Watt aus sich heraus und zeigte am Ende die insgesamt 12. beste Mountainbike Zeit von 76 Teilnehmern.

The Story
OK, it’s the most famous glacier in the world. You can’t expect solitude here; every fifteen minutes a busload of tourists is released in the direction of the viewing platforms. And yet the sight of the Perito Moreno Glacier in Patagonia with its 4-km wide and 60 m high escarpment has something touching, something incomprehensible about it. It is a natural spectacle that takes your breath away and that instinctively describes the relationship between man and nature. Humility and tranquil joy of existence seizes every viewer.
The Photographer
Ralf Gantzhorn was born in 1964, holds a M.S. in Geology – and has even worked as a geologist (as an independent consultant in the contamination sector). He has been climbing since 1983 and working as a photographer since 1985. As a northern German, he is always torn between the far too distant mountains and the fresh sea air, but he’s found a compromise in Scandinavia, Scotland and Patagonia (where he has now spent over three years). He enjoys organizing trips in areas where unfamiliar vistas – which haven’t already been photographed 1000 times – lure from every corner. He often experiences his images as far too static, but then is pleased with the abundance of triangles in the structure and the fantastic light.

The Story
The picture was taken on the summit of Marmolada after an ascent of the Vinatzer/Messner on the south wall. We didn’t reach the summit until 10:00 p.m. so we bivouacke (planned) there. We woke up to this riot of color …
