From 29th September to 4th Oct Herbert Nitsch will try to beat the World Record in: CWT, CNF, FIM, VWT and NLT (I just read it from AIDA website).

I think that 6 days is too tight (but it's Herbert). I believe that he will stick to the categories he's stronger (CWT and FIM)

Good luck to him

I looked at Herbert during the training en competition in Nice. He looked very strong and determined to get some records back....
 
and don't forget Herbert - this time TWO bowls of pasta : )
 
Interesting choice of location. That is where Kike Curavic lives. Is he involved in the event somehow?
 
Thank you everybody – this is the kind of motivation I need!

Frank, I will not attempt all the announced disciplines, but I hope it will be more then two. (can’t tell you any details, because I don’t know myself) I do have my “Shorty 2” with me. It is a 160cm long sled. It looks like I found it on junkyard, but it is my baby!

Sam, I will have 3 bowls of pasta!

Vlado, it is a coincident that it is close to where Kike lives. It is the closest saltwater for me, which is deep enough.

Anybody who wants to visit, drop me a line.

I think we all hope that too. I wish you good weather and a calm sea.

Go for it.
 
Hey Herbert

I think I'll go. If only I get some time off work. I heard U the atempt should be 5-6km from the coas of island Žirije? I sure hope u'll have some nice weather because it gets kinda crazy if there is only the slightest wind.

I talked to some friends in Croatia and they said that Ambra should also atempt for a national record and maybe a gril also... :girlie

It sounds like its going to be very interesting and I wouldn't want to miss it.

Good luck im sure U will do it.
 
Best of luck Herbert. Let me know the results and any pics and we'll post them onto the main site and news sites.

Hi Herbert,
I am sure you are going to do your best. Just do not forget to bring ALL parts of the sled with you rofl. I am extremely sorry that I will not be able to be there. I wish you all the best, nice weather and new records.
Best dives,
Marko Kleoncic
 
Good luck Herbert, it would be nice to see you on the top of the heap again :)
Have fun,
Erik Y.
