Over 80 000 people will witness as amateurs as well as pro athletes compete in various competitions during the four days full of action and the best performances; kayaking, paragliding, slacklining, Enduro MTB, Dirt MTB and climbing, that's just a fraction of what can be seen in Millau this year. Let's have a closer look at who has already confirmed the Natural Games 2014.
This year the Natural Games greet a stage of the World Cup of freestyle Kayaking under the authority of the International Federation and the French federation. One of the biggest names in the sport, the Jackson's family will have two representatives here, Dane and Emily Jacksons.
The International Block Climbing contest is the most anticipated competition on the list. No wonder, Chris Sharma, the world's best rock climber and Anna Stohr, double World Champion, European Champion and three times winner of the overall World Cup in Bouldering are the biggest stars and crowd-pullers of the games.
Probably the most spectacular event of all, the Acrobatic Paragliding Show is full spins, mc twists, flips, 360's and more. Marvin Ogger of Germany, one of the best freestyle paragliders in the world will prove spectators wrong if they think paragliding is just about "flying".
What a festival would it be without MTB competitions? Enduro, Slopestyle, Pump Track - all in just three days. Talented, young professional rider from Lyon, France Yannick Granieri is for sure the audience favorite. The best french rider and regular big-competition participant is without the doubt the main aspirant to podium.
Well, it is going to be huge as always. For more information about the Natural Games 2014 Festival, visit their website.
