Prague Playoffs Global Champions 2023
The Riesenbeck International team’s victory came down to three seconds of Philipp Weishaupt's ride on nine-year-old Zineday: “It was amazing, there’s nothing else like Prague in the world!”
This year’s Prague Playoffs at the O2 Arena in Libeň was visited by a total of 39,212 spectators, which is a record turnout for the whole of the Global Champions series.
Besides the classic disciplines, visitors also enjoyed four-in-hand races, an artistic show and horseboarding, an unconventional discipline where a horse pulls a rider on a skateboard.
Aviation company ABS Jets was also there at this important competition
ABS Jets has been successfully supporting this sport and participate in major events. “We are happy and proud to support this elegant and traditional sport, which still appeals to modern spectators and continues to attract new fans, as evident from the attendance figures,” says Petr Wessnitzer of ABS Jets.
The obstacle in the ABS Jets design elegantly complemented the other brands from around the world that support this exceptional sporting and social event.
The Global Champions is an annual world series of show jumping team competitions, founded in 2006 by Dutch Olympic champion Jan Tops.
Since 2007 all the races have been organised under the International Federation for Equestrian Sports (FEI) classification in the highest category CSI 5*.
Next year it will be held in Riyadh; after the end of the Prague event, the organisers and participants expressed their hopes that it would soon return to Prague.
