Predator RACE Alpine Master Weekend & Championship
THE sporting highlight in Neukirchen | 20.09. + 21.09.2025
In the Predator Race, you will have to take on an extreme obstacle course. True to the motto “Overcome all challenges and never give up”, this is a truly extraordinary sporting event. The pristine alpine terrain of the Wildkogel Arena, with its vast panorama of 3000 m peaks inside Hohe Tauern National Park, was seemingly predestined for the Predator RACE Alpine Master Weekend.
In three races, each varying in difficulty – the DRIL, BRUTAL (both on Saturday) and the MASAKR (Sunday) – you can put your competitive instincts and physical fitness to the test. You have the option of entering all races either in the “Elite” (without assistance) or “Open” (assistance permitted) division, either as an individual or a team (at least 4 people). And thanks to the JUNIOR RACE, even our little “predators” will have an opportunity to push their limits.

- Predator CHAMPIONSHIP:
Die Predator CHAMPIONSHIP besteht aus Dril, Brutal und dem Masakr Race und dem Master Weekend.
Die Championship wird nicht in Elite- und Open-Kategorien unterteilt, sondern in absoluten Wertungen: Top 3 Frauen und Top 3 Männer.
Die Championship besteht aus einer Vielzahl von Hindernissen, wie z. B. technische Hindernisse, Krafthindernisse, Balancehindernisse etc. Die Hindernisse sind obligatorisch und erfordern eine bestimmte Anzahl von Versuchen.
Der Wettbewerb ist sehr prestigeträchtig, mit der Unterstützung von Partnern und Preisgeldern von € 1.000,00, € 500,00 und € 250,00 für die ersten drei Plätze.CHAMPIONSHIP REGELN:
- Der Predator Championship Teilnehmer läuft mit dem Stirnband, das er/sie im Anmeldeumschlag erhält
- Alle Hindernisse sind Pflichthindernisse und können in Fast/Slow line absolviert werden
- Es gibt nur 1 Versuch auf der Fast Line
- Auf der Slow Line gibt es eine unbegrenzte Anzahl von Versuchen und Newcomer haben Vorrang
- Die Teilnehmer dürfen sich nicht gegenseitig helfen
- Jeder Teilnehmer hat 3 Leben = 3 Armbänder pro Rennen
- 2 Armbänder werden an der rechten Hand getragen
- 1 Armband wird an der linken Hand getragen, wenn der Freiwillige die slow line registriert
- Slow Line + 60s zur Endzeit
- Wird ein Hindernis nicht überwunden, werden 300 Sekunden auf die Endzeit addiert und Verlust des Armbands
- Wenn der Teilnehmer insgesamt 3 Hindernisse in einem Rennen nicht schafft, verliert er alle 3 Armbänder und wird disqualifiziert
- Am Ende meldet jeder Teilnehmer die Anzahl der Slow Lines und die Anzahl der verlorenen Armbänder im Chiptiming Zeitmesssystem. Danach wird die Endzeit angepasst
- Der Gewinner der Championship ist der, der alle 3 Typen des Predator Alpine Master Weekends (Dril, Brutal, Masakr) erfolgreich absolviert hat und dessen Endzeit, nach Abzug aller Strafen, die niedrigste ist
- Wenn man in einem Rennen aus der Championship ausscheidet, ist es möglich, sich für das nächste Rennen, z.B. Dril oder Masakr, vor Ort neu anzumelden und für dieses Rennen gewertet zu werden
- Rules FAST and SLOW Lines:
- The FAST line is the faster way to negotiate an obstacle. However, this option is technically more challenging or more strength-sapping.
- The SLOW line, on the other hand, is designed more simply. It takes longer and is generally associated with lengthier running sections.
- The HANDICAP: If you are still unable to overcome an obstacle, there is a handicap. The handicap involves an extra running stage or short, strenuous passages that have to be completed in a "Crab Walk".
- Compulsory Obstacles:
- Obstacles are only compulsory for ELITE runners
- Compulsory obstacles are marked with a star on the posters at the start/finish area
- FAST- or SLOW line is up to you (the main thing is, you make it through) No assistance!
- No handicap
- Obstacles not marked with a star are not compulsory. You can negotiate them via the FAST- or SLOW line and even invoke a handicap.
- Teams & Rebates:
Naturally, bigger groups will receive a team rebate from us!
- The minimum group size is 4 people. Teams up to 14 people receive a 10 % rebate on the entry fee. If your team consists of 15 or more, your group rebate will be 15 %.
- As a member of the ambulance services, police or fire department, you will receive a 10 % rebate, with other rebates excluded (i.e. this offer is only for individuals). If you are a member of one of the above organizations, please send us an email at [email protected]
