The championship is quite comparable to the Ironman, but here the toughest firefighters from all Nations battle in specific firefighter-challenges.

Indoor Firefighter Challenge

Joachim Posanz (on the picture right) and Alexander Meyer, two firefighters from Göttingen, Germany made 1st and 3rd place in the last championship in Daegu, South-Korea 2010. We are proud to supply both of them with a Schuberth F220 for their next challenge in 2012.

The “Indoor Firefighter Challenge” is a smaller national champioship that took place on March, 13th in Dortmund. Our Team had to succeed in 5 challenges with full Firefighter outfit.
