Since one of the athletes had been injured shortly before, the chances of competing against the best teams from all over germany were not very good. The four-man team got off to a bad start. There was an unfortunate crash in which a second rider was injured so badly that she was only able to finish the program under trances. The result was a place in the middle of the field, which was not enough for a place in the final round of the german championship.
The training supervisors silvia and thomas bittruf had actually already expected a break-off for the reuth athletes. But they did not want to admit defeat so easily. After intensive treatment of the two injured girls, they still competed with the six-person team. The result was the best performance ever by a six-man unicycle team from reuth. With personal best performance and place 9 among all teams the qualification was easily achieved. The task now is to heal the injuries in order to reach the german championship (4. Until 6. May in aalen) to be in top shape again.
