Noah Kallan: Salzburg's hope at the World Cup debut in Altenberg!

Altenberg, Deutschland - The young racing tobogganist Noah Kallan from just in the Pongau causes excitement! With his strong performance at the Nations Cup in Altenberg, the 20-year-old secured a place in the World Cup. The opportunity came to his debut when European champion Jonas Müller canceled his participation at short notice because he assessed the demanding railway as too risky. "The risk of injury on this train is simply too high," Müller explained his decision. Kallan shows nerve strength and drives to the excellent seventh place in the Nations Cup, which ensures the last free starting place in the Austrian team, such as ORF Salzburg reported.

Kallan is known as exotic in Austrian tobogganing, where athletes from Tyrol and Vorarlberg dominate. But the Salzburger proved that he too has what it takes to talk to the first division. "It's a cool thing. You can see that a good tobogganist can come out in Salzburg," said Kallan enthusiastically about his chance. Despite two training falls, in which he fell from the train for over 130 km/h, the young athlete could not be discouraged. "It is not pleasant. But nothing coarser has happened. You learn from it," he said.

a historical moment for Kallan

his debut will take place on Saturday, January 11, 2025, from 11:20 a.m., and the fans are excited to see whether Noah Kallan can win over the first World Cup points. "I will fully attack, let's see what's going on," said Kallan confidently when he prepared for the race. His father, Roland Kallan, who was also successful in natural rail tobogganing, also supported his son and traveled to Altenberg with other fans, to see this special moment, such as Meinverzirk reported.
