Red Bull Flugtag 2008 Coming to Ottawa

127th May 2008Oddities

If you read this blog on a semi regular basis you’ll know I tend to think pretty highly of Red Bull and their influence/support in the alternative sports world. They really are a sports innovator and tend to put their money where their mouth is when it comes to sponsoring events.

On the flip side, they also do a pretty good job of sponsoring events that might make you scratch your head a little (in a good way… with a big smile). The Red Bull Flugtag taking place in Ottawa on August 3 2008 might not be the pinnacle of action sports, but it certainly looks damn entertaining.

Last year’s Flugtag in Texas looked pretty wild…

Wikipedia has a bunch of background on the Flugtag… Might be worth a road trip to Ottawa that weekend.

    Guaranteed it was entertaining. We had high hopes for our craft, Operation Red Bull, but it did not fly. Our pilot bruised his eyeballs!
