The Real Club Náutico Dénia, Maik Dimitrov, meets at the World Cup
Maik Dimitrov, paddler of the Real Club Náutico Dénia, competed last week in the Sea Kayak World Championship held in Saint-Pierre de Quiberon (France). The RCND athlete was summoned by the Spanish Canoeing Federation to participate in this important international event, after qualifying in the Cádiz selective.
Dimitrov competed in the junior category k1, which had almost 40 participants from all over the world. The scheduled tour had a total of 22 km away, with wind and wave in favor.
On Saturday, September 11 was the day chosen by the organization to carry out the test, considering it as the most suitable day for its development. The Dianense remained in the 13º and 14º positions during much of the test. In the absence of 3 km of goal, the club player of the Dianense club suffered dizziness and shoulder pain, which caused him to finally finish in the 19ª position.
Jaime Portolés, President of the Real Club Náutico Dénia, has been very happy with the work done by the Dianense paddler in the world championship and encourages him to continue with his effort and dedication in the next tests.
