Valentin, an athlete supported by the Endowment Fund since 2017, kicked off his new competitive season with a competition in Barcelona, Spain, where he was able to test his physical and technical skills, assess the progress he’s made during training, and identify areas for improvement.

He then traveled to Nottwill, Switzerland, for a second competition, which boosted his confidence for the rest of the season with promising jumps and a second-place finish!

These encouraging results bode well for his upcoming training sessions and goals: Valentin is aiming for a top-5 finish worldwide as well as a personal best, with the ultimate goal of qualifying for the 2027 World Championships.
